FW3A, a TLF/BLF EDC flashlight - SST-20 available, coupon codes public

Never used Spotify……… but I still have my first AM transistor(circa 56)

This exact issue has been talked about here many times. You have to tighten the tail first, then tighten the head.

Radio ?! One of the best thing on earth…it don’t make you captive on the couch like TV. In France, france culture is one of the more interesting with programs about history, cinema, science, music, etc. Depending on programm, the presenter can let the guest talk for 5 or 10 minutes and even more without interupting him. No ads within or between programms. :+1:

Right now there is a sociologist talking about “makers (space)”, “hackers (space)” and acaton.

I would wish to be more fluent in english to being able to listen BBC 4 more often.

The Muggle Mode poll was 12 months ago. You snooze, you lose. :smiley:

Nice! That reminds me of the old school Sony Boombox (1970’s) my dad brought home which I swiftly took apart and well stayed apart………boy I was in deep doo doo with my dad over it.

Nice one hank… kinda get’s right to the point I guess.

RTFM / Urban Dictionary

RTFM

Literally “Read The F*g Manual”; a term showing the frustration of being bothered with questions so trivial that the asker could have quickly figured out the answer on their own with minimal effort, usually by reading readily-available documents.

People who say “RTFM!” might be considered rude, but the true rude ones are the annoying people who take absolutely no self-responibility and expect to have all the answers handed to them personally.

example
"D**n, that's the twelveth time that somebody posted this question to the messageboard today! RTFM, already!"

Naah, I would say major differences, as there would be with any of the other examples I used.
But the principle remains the same… if you want to use or do something, take the time to ’learn’ how to do it properly.

I received a shipping notification from Neal on the 8th but the tracking number still doesn’t work with 17 track or usps. Anyone else in this same boat. Should I email Neal or be concerned yet? (edit) Wow, as soon as I finished posting this the mailman came driving up the driveway with it. :+1:

Here’s the fine manual, at least one version of it:

I always like BLF as the place where questions were never answered with “RTFM”, but friendly explained, even for the nth time :slight_smile: (some irony at times allowed though)

You mean the part where it warns about precautions to observe when twisting the tail??

Yeah, that’s a good thing about BLF.

As a general guideline, if one gets the urge to answer someone’s question with RTFM or similar, it may be best to cancel the reply and let someone else respond.

I got my first rude point for telling someone to read the fine manual instead of actually answering their question… and the point was deserved!

HUMANS HAVE TAILS???




So you just got your FW3A & you don’t know much about it and/or it’s not working exactly right.

GO HERE , read the first few posts, do what it says, and you’ll probably learn a few things as well solve any issues in the process…. if there are any issues that is.

If the above does not correct things for you… TRY HERE.

Oh yeah… a User Manual also comes in the box with the FW3A. Read it….

About Half.

Let’s ignore that Wiener Wuerstchen for a second: at least all humans (ought to) have tailbones!

yea, I read the bit about tightening everything, I swear I did. I had a devil of a time loosening the tail when I finally decided to (after reading all the warnings about inserting the battery from the head, don’t open the tail unless you have to), but after I did and re-assembled it, as I said, it worked fine.

/\:+1::beer:

Okay, switch design aside, anyone have any ideas about why one of my lights works perfectly and the other doesn’t? And before anyone asks, yes I read the F’n Manual. Thanks.

In addition to some having terrible senses of humor, all humans have a tail for I think 4 weeks.
