Today I finally found a Toby Pra BeadBomb vol.2.
It's blue titanium with green tritium.

Ok, so here's the deal.

I was going to order some stuff from the Fenix store and they had some special discount if you gave em your email and filled out a profile thing.... so I did, what the heck!
Then I ordered my PD35TAC and some other smaller key chain lights.

A day or two later I get this link to a blow out sale they were having. They had the E20 'shaker' lights listed for $26.95 That's 250 AA lumens for $26.95 ...3 power levels and a nice looking light. So I thought sure, why not and ordered a few of em since they were such a good deal. :rock: Well, I got them tonight but they sent me the 2015 model which is a no shaker / 4 modes and just a tad different design (smaller) body wise. I wonder if they ran out of the 2014 models and had to sub the newer light? .... or maybe they made a mistake, I don't know. Either way it seems like a pretty decent light.... the only thing is the beam is focused really tight, so I guess it's going to be good for pinpointing things rather than laying down a broad beam.

Sooo I have a few more lights coming later this week and then I'm going to do a photo shoot!

These finally showed up on Monday. Now I'm waiting on the 18650 battery for the PD35TAC. The E20 is pretty sweet ... it has a more narrow beam than I expected, but should be good to focus on stuff.... very nice quality. The E05 is great for a keychain light ... heavier though than expected, but I like that it is beefy for its size. I haven't tried the E12 out yet. I have a few E01s coming today. Next I'm going to have to try a Surefire, a LED Maglite and maybe something else high end. I like the Nitecores, but they seem like a cheaper build... so not sure just yet.

Grats Dr!
Fenix has new packaging it looks like, no more orange on package?

Thanks Gearbest!

Loved the black and white!
It didn't even register to me, oddly as I used to shoot mainly in BW film back in the day of dinosaurs and stuff myself.

Hey Flashy, I don't want to go way off topic but,

Yup, just a PC fan running off a 7.2volt rc pack I use to start nitro motors with.. I'm not a battery expert but I firmly believe in cooling while charging. It should help keep resistance down a little bit, also aiding in keeping voltage down which in turn equals less heat.

Works great on my multi cell packs, long life out of cheap cells.
I cool the charger and cells.

Oh cool nice. I'll be sure to make one from a PC fan too when cool charging! & yeah I was wondering what the batteries were in the battery pack. :)
