MtnDon:

I hate to see no action on this. Maybe offer some stroopwafels with the kit?

Like the idea but not the risk of what happens if the syrup melts and hits the fan.

If it’s alright with you, I will replace the silica gel with a packet of Fisherman’s Friends O:)

Sounds great to me.

Did you know they export those to China?

Henk4U2, that is a wonderful kit! That JM07 is still one of my favorite lights, it is not a hot rod so you get great runtime and it has pretty good throw numbers. I did put a 4C in mine.

That is a wonderful way to kick off a flashaholic!

Fisherman’s Friend is a good thing to have around heading into winter.

I’m in

Edit: I’m out. I was trying to win this for a friend in the Netherlands but he just moved to Colombia. I am sending him one of my FW3As.

Hope that nobody is offended, but I felt a certain need to bump up my post.

I’m IN

djozz · 2019-12-16T10:07:31.000Z

I’m not in because I ’m well provided with the kind of items that are offered.
Just a bump for the only ever NL-giveaway on BLF

That’s very pollite Jos! It’s exactly the reason i didn’t enter as well, there are people around that need those lights harder then we do.

Starkm32 · 2019-12-16T12:32:49.000Z

Bump for Hollanders!

Hi Henk, how nice of you to start 2 giveaways!

Real kickstarter kit with a nice variation of lights. I’m tempted to join, but I see your point and enthusiasm to get more slightly less experienced members into various lights and potential future modding.

I think I started off with the Fandyfire UV-S5 in 2013. Funny enough it’s one of the few lights I didn’t mod.

Then I discovered “pocket rockets” and knew I had to push the envelope myself

Couldn’t have done it without BLF!

thijsco19 · 2019-12-19T17:39:10.000Z

I’m in.

However, I wont keep the ‘first aid kit’ I will give it to my dad for Christmas. He keeps ‘borrowing’ my lights, he takes them and puts them in his own pocket after use instead of putting them back

Hee Henk, gefeliciteerd met de (bijna) 3000 !

Not that i don’t have enough flashlights and parts yet (hmmm… never enough parts though…), but i kind of like that Thorfire, so count me in.

A bump for the Dutch.

Dutcheee · 2019-12-21T21:06:12.000Z

Goed punt Jerommel. Ik heb nog geen GAW gewonnen en vind er ook wel mooie dingen tussen zitten. Altijd al een Sipik (of lookalike) willen modden en die tank kan naar m’n zoontje. Dus als het nog kan:

I’m in!

Edit: Nice pic Brad. It’s kinda confusing isn’t it. And we speak Dutch, not to be confused with Deutsch. .

And reading the last couple of posts made me remember my uncle had a New Holland tractor once and also a Deutz at one time before that. Neither had anything to do with The Netherlands, Holland, anything Dutch or flashlights.

There are a few places in USA with Dutch names though, like Blooklyn (Breukelen), Harlem (Haarlem) and New Amsterdam (New York now).
And how about New Zeeland? Zeeland is a province in the Netherlands.
Yeah, the Dutchies used to boat around a lot in the past.
We had a bunch of colonies too.

Maybe New Holland was a company into agricultural stuff in the early days of America.

Either way, not much left of the old Dutch glory…

Last update and warning. Only 36 hours left to be IN on this GAW.

Why not 24 hours? Well, most of NL is at sleep at that time of day

That's great for those in the Netherlands...

But what about the Dutch?

Easy. The Dutch are in Netherland what Americans ususally are in the United States: included.
Though the last group mentioned must try their luck in the non-NL GAW.
