I did the "Ask Permission" thing on 10/23 and followed up with a friendly email 10/28. Crickets.
Oh dang. I hope everything is ok over there.I did the "Ask Permission" thing on 10/23 and followed up with a friendly email 10/28. Crickets.
Dang! That sounds like it's a bigger issue than any one of us. Any chance Hogo could shed some light on this? Thanks!9/12/21 Last email response from Henry ......................................................
Only sent 2 follow-up after that.................. crickets.............
Strange times indeed. Truly hope all is well with Henry during these trying times.......
I have considered I have been "black listed" but I do not think I have ever been over critical of HDS. I truly love the product and hope the best for all involved.
That's a bit disheartening. I really hope everything is fine! Hopefully we all get a response soon.Yesterday I had 16340 died inside the HDS. Most likely, it was not the cell itself that died, but the protection board. There was no spare CR123 or 16340 at hand, but I found CR2 in my pocket, decided to try it, the length of the springs was enough for it to work normally and not rattle. So here's another power option, maybe it will be useful to someone.
There really is some delay with Henry's letters, I have one question for him, I repeat the letter about once a month, no answer since 22 September, it is possible that I am blacklisted or ended up in spam.
Sounds like the logical next step, I just didn't want him to be waiting to reply to the emails based on time constraints and then get inundated with calls. I'll try that later today.Just curious, have any of you guys sending emails tried calling yet?

1) That is a cool discovery. I would never have thought to try.Yesterday I had 16340 died inside the HDS. Most likely, it was not the cell itself that died, but the protection board.

Blame Hogo.It seems you have to have a working knowledge of and understand irony to appreciate HDS. That is my kind of outfit…
I own a few HDS already. I was around when Henry's email was down for a few months years back. Zero issues waiting for the product here, but I'd like my order placed so I don't lose my chance to get one. I'll wait another several months just like the amber I ordered in June if need be. Though, spending this much on these is helped by the warranty, which is only valuable if Henry is available to service lights. I'm not having any warranty issues currently, but if suddenly one of my lights stopped working and I didn't hear back for months, that would frustrate me at this price point.HDS like tons of other businesses are having supply chain issues. If you order, I wouldn't expect it anytime soon. With that said, HDS is definitely worth the wait. Perhaps a WTB (want to buy) in the buy sell trade section would get you one quicker.
If shake it hard, then, of course, it shakes a little across due to its small diameter, but not along of axis, contact is still good.1) That is a cool discovery. I would never have thought to try.
