Greeting from Texas...

Hey Gang,…

I’ve been lurking on here a while I figured it was time and proper to officially come on board.

Long time flashaholic and edc gadget guy…Looking forward to learning and contributing on BLF.

This seems to be a great forum community and knowledge base for one of my favorite hobbies.

KaiserSosa signing on……

Howdy and welcome
And hide your wallet
And I miss Texas so bad

Welcome KaiserSosa. Soon you to may be one of the usual suspects around here.

Howdy and welcome to BLF ! ! ! :party:

Never been to Texas, but this will change in the future, since the missus got relatives all over the states and we plan to visit all (!) of’em in 2015.

Hi and welcome KaiserSoSa. What lights hold your interest. Seems to be a few Texans here now.

How’s the weather in Texas? We got some snow here today. If the USA would accept me I would move there :frowning: lol.

Howdy from a fellow Texan!

It's nice of you to join us, KaiserSosa!

Welcome to BLF from another fellow Texan :slight_smile:

36 degrees Fahrenheit (2 Celsius ) and dropping in Houston. :open_mouth:

Yikes! Not much better than here! I hope it doesn’t snow much on ya! lol.

-Jamie M.

Wow…thanks for the warm welcome everyone.

Yeah as Alex GT pointed out it is uncharacteristically cold today with icy road conditions. I am usually playing tennis in shorts in December. Not used to having seasons in Texas.

So my collection and addiction started with the Maratac AA and AAA and quickly spread once I became a frequent DX and aliexpress patron.

I currently mostly have Ultra Fires,…C3, couple of C6s, T6,…

My daily carry is usually a Unique Fire 501B,…or a smaller Unique Fire S10.

And then there is the double 18650, triple emmiter Fandy Fire STL-V2 every time I venture out into the woods hammock camping and backpacking.

Welcome to BLF, about time we got some more Texans in here! :slight_smile:

Getting ready to watch Baylor beat Texas tomorrow in their last game in the old stadium, might be an icy one but it’s almost guaranteed to be a good one! :wink:

As they’ve said, there will be a lot of temptation for you, so lock up the credit card and unplug the internet when you see those ads you have trouble resisting! My little collection has now grown to over 30, with another on the way. :slight_smile:

Have fun, catch ya on the flip flop.

Welcome to BLF! Enjoy your stay.

-Garry

DBCstm…ouch…As a third generation Longhorn alumni that bleeds orange,…it pains me to have to agree that your Bears are by far the better team this year and will probably best my Horns tomorrow.

I just hope that UT “shows up” to make it competitive and a good game. It will be a cold one indeed-

Yeah, I saw your new stadium going up on my way up IH35 to my last hammock camping event at Fairfield Lake State Park last month….it looks NICE from the highway.

Welcome to BLF, KaiserSosa! :party:

Welcome to BLF! Hope you enjoy your stay here. :slight_smile:

Watch out for Ryan! He get’s things made in shiny copper that you just cannot resist!!! Good looking things that work like a champ, pills for C8’s and HD2010’s, I’m tellin ya, he’ll drain your bank account! :stuck_out_tongue:

Oh, Hi Ryan! :slight_smile:

Chloe can de-bug your electrical problems, especially with stuff like chargers. :wink:

MRsDNF (Steve) makes some awesome lights on his lathe, when he’s not goofin off! Killer massive copper pills for custom lights that have whopping output, he does it for fun and lights up the Eastern seaboard from Australia! Check out Old-Lumens give-away thread where he’s modding a pair of MagLights that Steve modded the outer bodies first, what a pair those 2 are! Fantastic looking lights! I hope to sneak over to OL’s in Tyler and steal the little one…shhhhh…. Aus/Yank thread here.

That lil drawing is hilarious!
