    Sold/Expired WTS Lummi Wee NS and McClicky Mule

    When I bought these lights, a very long time ago, I had no idea I would be back to sell them, 8 or 9 years later. Does that make these vintage? Anyway, I have a lightly used McClicky Mule (Al) with a DatiLED P7 LE, and a Lummi Wee NS with whatever the stock LE was. Looking to sell both, plus...

    Plug-in rechargeable flashlight

    I'm looking for a flashlight for someone with poor vision, especially in low light situations. Removable batteries present a challenge for him. He wants something with an integrated battery pack and preferably something that plugs directly into the wall, though if it had a dock or something...

    GoldenGadgets GT-7D and L-A3W-MR16

    Has anyone ever heard of GoldenGadgets and their lights? Any thoughts on these two items? http://www.goldengadgets.com/gt-7d-7-watt-led-globe-light-bulb.html http://www.goldengadgets.com/l-a3w-mr16-mr16-3-watt-3-x-1-watt-led-light-bulb.html Both look pretty compelling from a price perspective...

    The first LEDs to utilize quantum dots

    I've met the man from the Economist video. He's my girlfriend's cousin. I'm really looking forward to LED lighting indoors with a nice color reproduction. Right now, I use the Z-Bar LED floor lamp, which I like a lot, but would be even nicer if the light weren't so cold. Has anyone seen...

    Best Mod with Aspheric lense to create a super thrower?

    Going to second the Tiablo A9 with aspheric lens that is sold on CPFMP. It's a pretty awesome thrower.

    Windows 7 are you moving?

    Can you post screens with the error message and the exact filename of the installer? It sounds like you have a version for the wrong CPU architecture, but that shouldn't happen. When I say the userbase, I don't just mean user error, I mean conflicting needs and wants from 92% of computer...

    Windows 7 are you moving?

    Have you ever compared boot times under Linux with the nvidia GLX drivers? It easily doubles the boot time. Or worse still, have you ever noted the difference in boot time while loading fiber HBA drivers? Yikes. ndiswrapper also does a number on Linux boot times. Don't get me wrong, Windows...

    I hates the waiting for my precious....

    LED indoor lighting - floor lamps?

    I got the floor lamp from these guys: http://www.konceptech.com/ And I'm moderately happy with it. Not perfect, but definitely gets the job done, and it's quality construction and good looking to boot.

    Windows 7 are you moving?

    Windows has a lot of issues, but there's one key item that should be brought up - the problem with Windows isn't the registry. Production servers around the world run on Windows without issue, see http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/today/top.avg.html It's the user base that is the problem with...

    LED indoor lighting - floor lamps?

    Other posts in this section imply that LED bulbs are acceptable, but not really a great solution. Does that line up with your experiences? Also, while I wouldn't mind doing some electronics work myself, I don't have tools/expertise to build the body of the lamp.

    LED indoor lighting - floor lamps?

    Hi all, I recently moved to a new apartment with... POOR LIGHTING! I was looking around for some lamps and such to brighten it up, and I was hoping to find some LED floor lamps that run on AC, but I haven't seen much. One from Ikea, one from DWR. Has anyone else come across LED floor or...
