BLF has cost me more money in torches than I would have ever imagined. When I joined I had an X8 and a Skyray 818. Both of those are long gone and in the process I have spent well over $1000 on “replacements”!
In saying that, I still don’t have a Titanium light! Thanks for the giveaway.
Thank you. Very generous. How BLF has changed/affected my life.?
I’ve not been here long compared to some but I sort of feel at home here, my flash-light addiction was meant to get me out of the expensive hobby of being a knife-aholic.
The only thing it has done is to give me an unhealthy liking for shining Ultra Violet beams on things.
Also an addiction to the Solarforce L2 series, it hasn’t changed my buying knives.
In the true spirit of every forum - if you can’t decide, buy them both :exmark:
BLF has made me buy lots of flashlight, more than i need. but that’s usually how i do my budget hobbies, buying, trying/using (/hoarding? :zipper_mouth_face: ). i’m using my soldering station more than before i joined, and it’s nice doing some creative work, tinkering and thinking and doing (and re-doing, and re-doing in another way…)
I joined BLF definitely not just for giveaway (although still hoping to be lucky one day). :bigsmile:
I started this flashlight hobby in early of year 2011, and I have been joinning this forum for almost two years. How does BLF change my life? Makes me poor and nearly starved living pass each day!
Ok for the serious note, gaining knowledge knowledge and knowledge. This community is very helpful and friendly, I am benefited from here A LOT, and I am serious.
From checking out once in a while, then daily basis, until now keep refreshing the BLF page even at my workplace! :zipper_mouth_face:
Thanks people for making this forum great, and thank you ryansoh3 for the generous giveaway!
blf provided lots of fun and info on new torches… and has become an addiction for me, I have to check it every day!
so many great users, giveaways, reviews and deal alerts
thank you ryan and everyone!
Funny you ask, I have more flashlights and flashlight parts than I ever need and a lot less money in the pocket :zipper_mouth_face:
o, and a lot of knowledge in this field
BLF is a budget minded flashaholics paradise. Too many lights out there…you need to arm yourself with intel. BLF is my happy place and at the same time, my wifes worst nightmare.
BLF is a happy beacon of light in the darkness that is internet forums. It’s warmth and generosity is to me an example of the good that can come from communities connecting on the internet. It helps maintains my faith in the light of humanity when the media portrays only the darkness of the worst of us.
BLF has been a great help. I have learned quite a bit…and there is still quite a lot I don’t know. This is the place to find out. Thanks for the give away!
Do you mean that my wife going over the paypal receipts with a comb? Or that she thinks I am obsessive about buying flashlight parts? Or the growing amount of "obsolete" led's strewn about the workshop?
Or is it different than that? Is it that I check BLF "recent Posts" if I get up to take a leak at night? :-)
BLF is a nice place with a unique flock of followers and I enjoy the "off topic" rants and banter as much as all the tech stuff :-)
