That's right, after carrying one for nearly a year (everywhere I went) I lost my U Bin McLux III-PD
There are only three places where I kept this light- in use, clipped to my pocket, or on my nightstand. Except for the other day when I didn't. On this one occassion as I was leaving for a meeting, instead of clipping it to my pocket (lightweight dress pants) I put it in my backpack. :shakehead
After the meeting, I went to the hotel with my bags. Got in the room and saw the side pocket was open about halfway. I thought of the sickening little "tink" I heard in the parking lot hours earlier as I put the backpack in the trunk (for safekeeping!). Of course, I took a quick look when I heard the noise- but I was running late.
After searching everywhere- backpack, hotel room, hotel lot, car, trunk, and returning to the (now empty) lot where the meeting was, I did the sensable thing...
...I talked myself in to believing that I didn't even bring the light on the trip.
But after searching all weekend, I think it's gone. :sigh:
The worst part is- I just sold my back up PD a couple of weeks ago.
We'll I'm definitiely getting a Ti PD the very minute they're available, but that could be weeks!
I guess I'll be emailing Don to sell me a replacement in a few minutes. I still have my chromie, but I can't bring myself to carry her...
