I have been lurking here for awhile and finally decided to register. Great Forum! Everyone is very helpful and the atmosphere is fairly light (pun intended).
I decided to post here first as my growing obsession with LEDs is putting a nice hole in my wallet. Since the beginning of March, I have purchased a Arc AAA (very impressive for such a small package) a Inova X5 white LEDs (again very nice output with a VERY clean white color...only a tiny hint of blue in the beam) and am expecting a Eternalight X-ray in the mail from Hosfelt any day now. I also picked up a M2...but that is for the other group.
Mr. Gransee,
Thank you for the warm welcome! I am really impressed with your ARC AAA! I just need to convince the wife that I *need* ARC LS... [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Darell,
I am originally from Hilo on the island of Hawaii, but moved to Oahu about seven years ago. Sorry, even with your green laser, I couldn't see it here.

Welcome to the CPF. How did you find out about us?

Sorry, missed this question...
I don't remember specifically, but I think someone on one of the knife forums (BF or KF)had a link here or mentioned this forum. Could be that Joe Talmadge (sorry if I didn't get the spelling right) mentioned it...
Yup, it is the Hardrock T. Maybe someday I will hit you up for the favor, but right now I am just harassing Darell [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] Thanks though.
I'm thanking you guys now (including the LedMuseum guy) as I am new to this, but my wife and our vacation fund definitely do not... [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

be sure to check quickbeam's site- great links page and everything is well laid out,too!
also see the site he made for me which is currently dormant(ie not improvements) because i cut the towrope a few days ago and now my liferaft is floating aimlessly about the ocean with only sharks to keep me company.to continue the analogy i could say that i have sent morse(with the red ls of course) to this ship of freindship in an attempt to have another rope thrown to me(which i would NOT cut) so i could reunite myself with its crew. however i can only gaze at the ship's lights which are so close yet so far away and sigh the sigh of those who are truly remorseful. *sigh* i beg any ship who hears me to contact the ship i speak of and notify it that i have thrown the knife which cut the rope into the sea and wish to make amends.

Thanks<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
You're new here, so I'm gonna let this slide for now. But once you hang out for a while, you'll soon realize that you're supposed to BLAME BROCK for all your light purchases - not *thank* him for it!
He's always my go-to guy when my wife catches me opening my latest UPS package from TTS.

I enjoy reading what both of you have to say, and Aragorn clearly understands that he is fortunate to have Quickbeam as his mentor.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Gee - I wasn't even aware anything was wrong! But ditto, anyway [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
