It's a sad day to see such a wonderful contributor to the CPF community find other interests to occupy his time. I am in the same boat, though I only sold a few lights that I deemed would be of more use to someone else. The rest are sitting in the basement collecting dust, waiting for me to one...
Re: Sold: Deft-X
That's crazy. Awesome that you guys cleared the geese issues over there. As much as I love birds, geese are so messy, loud and in high numbers will ruin the ecology of a lake.
I no longer live on a lake, but have moved to the Long Island sound.
Man, you just missed out as Stingray3 just sent me funds this morning to purchase this light. I have to say, if you ever have a chance to get your hands on one and have funds available, you will be blown away by the performance of this light!

The candela is actually 895,000 while I had it in my head that it was 992kcd. This means that it will only throw .25 lux at 1.175 miles and not 1.237 miles. I have let Ron know that he can return it for a full refund and I will pay for the shipping. I am just awaiting...
Sold: Deft-X
For sale is a mint condition Deft-X. It has only been taken out of it's case twice. The card from Michael states that this is rated at 895KCD. This light will throw visible light over a mile away!! The light output is very neutral. This Deft-X will come with the original hard case...
It's good to see you back, if only for a moment. Hope life is treating you well. Good luck on this sale. If you don't know ma_sha, he is/was a legend in pushing the limits.
