Re: Guiness Book - Brightest Handheld Flashlight/T

Which i guess.. we can do that... but how about this thought-process...

1) i build the brightest flashlight in the world. (80% done with the design already)
2) figure out a fair envelope of constraints within which it falls
3) write it up official-like
4) submit to the GBWR guys

Well Andrew if you do it in this order, here is what happens.

You wait 6 month, then they tell you that they don't have a category for flashlights, but that they would like to start one. Then they give you a contact person who will then tell you to suggest a standard. I can shorten this process by 6+ months by giving to you or whoever has the time to coordinate this, the contact information to work out the categories and measurement.

Once the categories are in place people can submit their events where those lights will be tested.I think if CPF could take an official stand in this that would be fair.

At the end it takes time to work out a standard most would agree on, it takes time to create a measurment standard.

Even though I started this thread at this point my flashlight activity is focused more on making my designed lights a reality.

So let me know who would be interested in coordinating this from an official cpf point of view.
