    New Nitecore EA41

    Respecting your opinion, what would you consider a fair scale for reference? I have a few "Bubba Tests" as part of my inept evaluation. *Bedroom Wall Test: If the sucker surpassess all my other high-performance lights, it wins. *Backyard Tree Test.

    New Nitecore EA41

    Well, maybe I've been out of the loop for a while, but my new EA41-W kicks butt! Now I am the proud owner of a veritible antique relic designated "SureFire M3 Millenium Combat". Of course I have several new lamp assemblies for that beast that will likely never see a need for use.... Now can...

    I am devastated

    Not to disrespect, but avoid pet stores at all cost. There are plenty of birds to be adopted from rescue centers who were abandonded by people who "just didn't want them anymore".

    I am devastated

    So sorry for your loss. Stories like this just break my heart. I have had a Senegal parrot for 14 years and an African Grey Congo for 8 years.

    Anal car owners / Recommended car cleaning/care
