Ain't that like 18 hour days?
Aren't you happy there's people like me keeping you in business? All jokes aside, i did manage to put it all together again, being a CNC teacher by trade does have some perks. I'm not overly worried about getting things to work as they're supposed to, even if it might take a little while to get the stuff needed to fix it.The rubber buttons (actually neoprene) are the same for Rotary and Executive.
The O-rings in the tail are EDPM. Don't use anything but the HDS lube... or just don't take the tail apart... actually, do take the tail apart so we can sell you another one when it gets messed up.
The tail caps are 302 stainless. It isn't rust inside but a left over of the blackening process which is a nitride coating.
I don't get on here much. My last 2 week paycheck from working on the ambulance had 240 hours on it... 80 regular and 160 OT hours...
People need to stop doing stupid things and having others hold their beer and watch. I thought I saw stupid when I worked as a LEO... I was wrong!
I wasn't referring to you... I was referring to the folks I have to take to the hospital after having their friend's hold their beer. LOL!Aren't you happy there's people like me keeping you in business? All jokes aside, i did manage to put it all together again, being a CNC teacher by trade does have some perks.

Sounds like you could use some R&R soonish so you don't end up burnt out from it.
24 hour shifts... 10 shifts in 14 days. We do get to sleep... if the road is going straight and the ambulance is going straight, it is a great time to get some shut eye.Ain't that like 18 hour days?
since HDS says they used 595nm amberWhat LED did HDS use for the Amber?
Considering what i went through opening a SPA Defense it's not far off. Also the fun times when the bloody machine won't let go of a tool and you end up applying percussive maintenance (mainly) on the stuck tool. The only difference is that no alcohol is involved, sadly.I wasn't referring to you... I was referring to the folks I have to take to the hospital after having their friend's hold their beer. LOL!
Probably a Cree XP-E or XP-E2, as there really aren't that many options for direct amber in the 3535 package that HDS uses.What LED did HDS use for the Amber?
That is my guess. The Amber LED looks like XP-E (or XP-E2).Probably a Cree XP-E or XP-E2, as there really aren't that many options for direct amber in the 3535 package that HDS uses.
thanks!silver for the XP-E2
Was the source Hogo with his war crime stick ready to unbox something other than a flashlight?Thank y'all very much. I'm going to order a few single LEDs and see how it looks.
I heard from an authoritative source that HDS has the best Amber.

The shortness of Ra Twisty is emphasized and clearly seen when juxtaposed with the rotary. It is also interesting that the low mode is red. I was curious about this, so I looked into it and found a silver button-like thing at the rear end of the battery compartment. Is this a switch? or is it a Neodymium magnet?Ra twisty tr85 next to my nb30 rotary… you can't get much better than this! Love the red low on the tr85 and the tint on the golden dragon is PURE white. Sw30 is no slouch either

The real question is have you thrown on the hdsrb? No bugs are touching me from either side of the river now.I'm afraid the amber lover may have been a FLORIDA MAN
