New Ra Lights products (Part 3)

[luxlover]

Certainly! I only have two at the moment, these aren't my best work, sorry. :shrug:

Well thank you, Jeff!

You wouldn't know by looking at the pictures, but it was 25 degrees out there, brrr...

Hold on there. What's that "wannabe Ra/HDS light" doing on the left? It is ruining the sanctity of the pictures!

I had an interesting day yesterday. Was out drinking from 11AM-midnight, and when I got home I was a little sloshed. I had to check something stuck to the apartment window, so I was using the 140Cgt and it sorta slipped out of my hands and fell 13 stories down into the bushes/hedges the apartment has below. I didn't actually see where it landed, because it fell too fast.

I'm not sure if it bounced off anything but I had to go look for it with the 170Cn (which is working great now) and I managed to find it about 30-40 minutes later after some help from the apartment guards. I almost thought it fell, bounced and rolled into the visitor parking area or the waste station or the small jungle area right next to both those places. Would have taken a lot more time to locate it if it did.

The 140Cgt wasn't damaged at all. Works great on all primary/secondary/high/burst levels, and I glad I found it. Would have been pretty depressed if it was lost. Slight scratches and marks on it, but nothing that bad.

That's a safety "share" for me right there, don't go checking windows at night when you're slightly sloshed.

Btw Street, gorgeous pictures. The Clicky looks real good.

I was crying tears of joy, by the time I reached the end of your story. :mecry: If a 13 story fall, ending in deceleration poisoning didn't destroy it, should be given the coveted "Pummeled Award."

Your next mission should be to accidentally on purpose drop it from the highest floor of the 610m/2,001 ft Petronas Twin Towers building.

So that is what hit me in the head, man that hurt! It hit bezel first, I can tell by the scolloped circle in my forehead.

When it comes to an impact of a Ra light with a human skull, the skull will always lose. I hope that you heal well. 🙁

A new family shot with my newest addition! I'm going to go out on a limb and say my favorite."can you spot it"

Your girlfriend has one impressive collection of Henry lights. You better have her stick around. I know which is your favorite! It's the 3rd from the right on the bottom shelf! :naughty:

Where's the missing photo of Henry above your Ra shrine?:nana:

Henry has to keep a low profile these days, because his lights are so great that his competition has put a bounty on his head! 😗

Holy cow! :rock: Daaaamn.. 😱

Ditto. Thermal is demonstrating the epitome of his girlfriend's affluence! :thumbsup:

... Was out drinking from 11am-midnight and when I got home I was a little sloshed....

13 hrs of drinking? :buddies:
Sloshed? I'd be dead!
Good thing it was the Ra and not you that fell of the balcony.
I'm not sure what liquor prices are like in Malyasia but a 13 hr bar session in the states would be more expensive than a new Ra!


Thermal Guy,
I was wondering where all the HDS light went to. Been trying to score a Ultimate at a reasonable price for years.

The fact that the battery survived that impact is an excellent success story for the springs inside. Good job Henry!

Just gonna throw a couple more pictures up here. The angles on the original Arc4 clip were driving me nuts :hairpull: So I straightened it, before and after pictures...

Before :scowl:

After :rock:

Here's an alternative to the clip carry a leather case with magnetic clasp,but it will also accommodate it with the clip and two spare batteries,not loose batteries but placed in a plastic tube of some kind like you get with Raw lights.Not everyone's way of carrying,but I like it.:twothumbs

18650 just to show size comparison,

[sappyg]

[DM51]

Easy - use Photobucket instead.

 

[sappyg]

one more try DM51.... if this does not work i'll try photobucket... would you prefer if use photobucket?

did'nt work...sorry

 

[sappyg]

ok streetmaster... i'm gonna give you a run for your money one day with pics.

 

[DM51]

LOL - the picture now seems to work fine with photobucket, but it's over-size! Could you resize it to 800 x 800 pixels in line with Rule #3 please.

 

[cave dave]

Ever heard of crop? your picture is 90% brick wall and over the size limit.

thanks cave dave :thumbsup: i'm new at pics.

For a really quick hosting with no member log on required I use:

http://tinypic.com/

It is owned by photobucket but has no login required. :thumbsup:
Also has dropdown to resize stuff and has the proper coding for posting. You should still crop and resize yourself though. I rarely need to post an image over 30k. I use freeware called FastStone viewer to edit my pictures. It is quick and easy to use.

Wow, much better! May I ask what method you used to straighten it out?

1. First I removed the clip from the light. You can wrap some tape around it to prevent scratches.
2. Using smooth pliers(no grip teeth inside) I gripped the clip at the bend.
3. I carefully decreased the existing bend by hand a little at a time until I got the desired angle.
4. Then I squeezed the clip at the top loop to regain the tension lost from the previous adjustment.
5. Be VERY careful when bending this clip, if too much force is applied it can break!

*Be sure to use tiny adjustments, checking it by holding it against the light after every tweak.

another shot of my growing EDC collection and how i EDC my lights. this holster fits E series SF's, NT's, and Ra's. the bezel on the T model has a smaller diameter than the E model which is smaller still than the NT.
i will eventually install a clip on my Ra's. looks like streetmaster's solution is the way to go.

 

[streetmaster]

Looks like you've got the picture posting all figured out.:thumbsup:

That's a sweet collection. Where did you get the holster? Is that Kydex, or leather?

Whoops! Where'd the picture go? 😉 It was there a second ago.🙂

sappyg are they concealco holsters? if so great choice for the tactical version :twothumbs
