Arc Visit in Phoenix ** Photos added **

[Lux_Luminous]

The Gransees were on vacation /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif (good for them - they deserve some time off).

The nice lady who was "minding" the shop let me play with and look the Arc AA prototype - VERY NICE! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

She said that they'll be ready "in another week or two."

that is sweet. i didnt even know they have an actual shop.

Re: I stopped by Arc today in Phoenix . . .

not really a shop....more of an office/assembly line complex.

Ah, pilgrimages, aren't they fun?

Re: I stopped by Arc today in Phoenix . . .

Chamenos is right. It's more of a "workshop". /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Think about a fine gunsmith or master car-tuner
type place and that will get you closer to what it is. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif
It's not really what I would call a retail flashlight "boutique".

It's no-frills industrial but it's where "fine Arc" is created! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

However, it is a "Mecca" for flash-a-holics and yes, I have
made the "pilgrimage"! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif

2 weeks, not bad

Re: I stopped by Arc today in Phoenix . . .

I keep trying to up-load the photos to my web page
but I'm getting "technical difficulties" type messages
from my provider. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif

I will keep trying and post the photos when possible. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon23.gif

I love those photos. Wouldn't it be a kick to work there!

Re: I stopped by Arc today in Phoenix . . .

Ahhh, Lux, Just looking at your photos of all those LS's and AAA's waiting to find their way into the hands of flashaholics around the world makes me smile. My Arcs are really some of my most valued possessions, their utility, quality and beauty are unsurpassed. Me want more!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/broke.gif

Take home pay? I'd have to give *them* money at the end of the week /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I do work close by to Arc's shop. It's extremely difficult to go there without whipping out my credit card for this, that or the other. Last week, I swung by there to pick up two LS's, just for the heck of it. It's really bad for my bank account. Ah, this flashlight sickness is gonna put a dent in my retirement fund.

CM,
Look at it this way, you'll retire in full "brightness" /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Re: I stopped by Arc today in Phoenix . . .

I would roll around in them, bathing myself in them, like Eric Cartmen.

Re: I stopped by Arc today in Phoenix . . .

haha yea i remember that episode. i think i'd disassemble them first and remove the batteries of the LS's so i'll have more stuff to roll around in /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
