:caution: That is NOT how this is going to work. If I win, I'll gladly accept the prize, but I should have the same chance as anyone else. I try hard to ensure fair treatment in this thread, and I'd like everyone else to honor that goal.

If you are throwing your name in the hat, it should be because you want the kit.

Apologies to gunga for the interruption...we may now return to scheduled programming. :D

Doc my green L3 Illumination L10 came, my first green light, very nice color.

I made the right choice.

It's going to get many hours of good use.

Thanks and for all the other gifts that you send me. :clap:

I want the modders grab bag! Please.

My first light was a Kathmandu 2x AA one I found after camping. Only 100 lumens and it blew me away at the time. I may have fried it with high voltage.

I'd like to try and repair it :)

I've been looking for a reason to machine a host (or a few). This would give me the perfect reason: I would have most of the other necessary parts!

Thanks, Gunga!

Sorry. Correction. I.meant 3 names so in case someone doesn't get to me in 12 hours. But since I got your hopes up, I'll pull enough parts for 2 draws. Not sure I have enough for 3.

Okay folks, 9 valid entries (1 invalid one), random number generator (random.org) gives me #4, and #6.

So Potpot and thedoc007, please send me your addresses in the next 12 or so hours, or I will draw new names.

Thanks all, it'll take me a day or two to gather all the parts. I hope you have fun modding!



This is one way to clear out the parts box, and spread the love. ;)


Now how about some new people join in and share some stuff?!

Couldn't find the danglers, but got a nice stash of parts for both kits.

Each kit has:

- very random assortment of leds.
- an AA circuit and a li-on circuit (17mm)
- copper and aluminum mpcbs.
- some insulating disks for the LEDS
- a glow bead for lanyards
- flood and throw optics (20mm)
- Generic smooth reflector.
- a couple switches
- a few gold plated springs
- an assortment of 14 and 16mm buttons (including glow green, black and blue)
- a spring clip.

So I do have enough for another kit for a future draw. But I think I'll limit that to all who have contributed to this thread.
