UPDATE with some beamshots, taken with my iphone 4s, please forgive blurrish quality:
Parking lot from a shop close to Frankfurt in the dark:
Parking lot with Ultrafire WF-502B, XM-L T6 P60 drop-in on high:
"Eco-Star II“ nona 9x XM-L T6, highest mode:
..funny incident- someone drove directly in front of my camera to deliver something-
took the chance to take a pic, same situation, lightened by car lights:
..now sorry in advance for bad quality of following pic, but I only had one chance to take it
until the guy on picture got little bit nervous... :devil:
car with lights on normal, "Eco-Star II“ 9x T6 on "high“ & nervous guy, close to "high":
At last I should tell you, that the guy was that full of thanks, that he closed the parking lot of
the market when he left the scene- but I could get back my car today when they opened
the market...
..best regards from Frankfurt & thank you for watching,
Steffen
