Hey....from Oz

Hi, I'm from South Australia and I'm new to the forum. I have a big interest in LED lighting because I like the idea of saving some money on my electricity bill by using more efficient lighting. I'm also pretty amazed at some of the new LED flashlights and how fast technology is advancing in this field. Being a total cheapass I enjoy pulling out the soldering iron and making or modding lights. This site is a great source of information, and I'm going to enjoy reading all the posts.

Cheers :-)

Yup, short slag for Australia. It's also a bad prison on HBO and a magical land where houses fall on ruby slipper wearing witches :)

Sounds just like me :) Like I told the missus, modding torches is a lot cheaper than my previous hobby (Modding late model mustangs). Welcome and enjoy yourself.

Yes, Oz is Australia.....but I'm actually from that magical land with falling houses and ruby slippers.......and I used to have a little dog too ;-) Thanks everyone for the warm welcome!

I agree, I used to play with cars a bit....and way more expensive than making a kickass flashlight. I get a lot of satisfaction from knowing stuff I make or mod cannot be easily purchased where I'm from! Cheers :-)
