What you got today

my convoy L6 rolled up this morning , the finish is 1st class but I must say I was expecting more

but then again I have never had a light with an op reflector either .

so I hope it is just a combination of that and day time so I am eagerly waiting for night time and .

we have a day after full moon too so that won’t help .

ps it is getting full power AFAIK as it has the 4 modes L at the tail switch M H T at the side button

so that’s the 4 .

cheers D

Finally my latest order from Gearbest arrived (China -> Europe in 3 weeks)

On The Road M3

Fenix HL05 from ebay, for my dog

Nice stuff :stuck_out_tongue:

Jetbeam JET-UV
Did you like it? A few photos, how does it flash tags on banknotes?

just got my convoy c8 and the astrolux s3 and I am happy with them but how do I turn off the silly purple tail switch light ?

cheers D

Haven’t used much but it should work!
You can find plenty of reviews on youtube :slight_smile:

I think it’s a great little flashlight, quality is top notch, UI is simple two modes and always starts on low, to some it might be a to simple UI but I like it alot. There is no glue anywhere , the MCPCB is 16mm and the driver is 17mm.

What are the knives?
Thanks

Welcome to BLF.
We will need to know More about this Awesome light. Pics if possible

Hi Glenn, do You use it during blackouts or such?
Price sounds good… :slight_smile:

Couple days ago, I got myself a PM2.5 air quality sensor.
Not absolutely sure how accurate it is but it sure does smell tobacco, burning wood smoke, fart… earlier than me! :zipper_mouth_face:

The air quality must be pretty good if the device loves having all those air bubbles!

Only for extended blackouts. It’s basically used to keep my refrigerator, heat, and some lights going during power outages. Fortunately, that doesn’t occur too often around here. Last major outage was Hurricane Sandy in 2012. We were out for 2 weeks. Luckily I had an old 3000 watt generator that worked during the outage. I got rid of that one because it developed a seal leak on the flywheel side of the crank. It wasn’t worth fixing. I wasn’t even sure I could get the part since it was an unknown chinese engine with no parts list. The new one has a cloned Honda engine. From what I read, Honda parts will fit.

Which version you bought? M1 or M5

Interesting. The Crafsman Rider I just bought also has the Honda cloned engine. MTD I believe is the manufacturer/distributor for it’s parts. Don’t know if that applies to your generator however.
Just food for thought. :sushi:

I bought this chunk of aluminium profile today (the flashlight is for size reference), 6x6x6cm, 4mm thickness.

I showed it to my girlfriend and she said it was the most boring thing she had ever seen. Is it just me who sees endless wonderful opportunities with it? :heart_eyes:

I buy that stuff to build robots. Cheaper than carbon fibre tube…

Finally got an Astrolux SC, never could get my hands on the X5… Next best thing, now on to building a quad! 219C 4000k with LD3 driver set on 8 amps.

Nice Matt !

I have one aluminum X5 and one copper SC . Both are quads , aluminum is xp-g3 s4 3a & bistro firm fet driver and the copper one has 219C 4000K leds and bistro driver again . I just think they’re 2 of my top lights … :heart_eyes:

I got a little package in the mail today from Mountain Electronics. And I do mean little. At first I didn’t think both parts were in there. My compliments to Richard and company for packing their stuff so well!
