Trivia... Do you know what is

[Barbarin]

the brand who has introduced high power LED tactical lights into firefighting??

 

[chimo]

My guess -> a Barbolight?

 

[Barbarin]

Hmm.. Yes, the only tactical, diving and firefighting light is Barbolight. And you, chimo, are now owner of a U-04 ATEX.


CONGRATULATIONS

 

[Patriot]

Yeah, and the tail cap sorta looks like one too.

Edit: Whoa!! congratulations chimo! That's really cool.

 

[Barbarin]

Here is the answer.

BTW, for firefighters who might be interested the helmet is a very nice GITD Sicor VFR 2000, made from carbon fiber and Kevlar. Design " in collaborazione con Giugiaro Design"

Err.. just so you know Javier - I hacked my way into chimo's computer and used his acount, so that U-04 is actually rightfully mine. Sorry chimo I wont do it again

CONGRATULATIONS

[Barbarin]

PVT sent.

Of course I'm serious. It would be really cruel to cheat a flashaholic with something like this.... don't you think so?

Ill stick to my traditional Paul Conway helmet with a SF G2 on the side...

Javier,

My brother is a firefighter, and knows I'm into "overpriced flashlights" (not my words!!!) - could you give a little more information (or link in English) about this light, and why it's good for firefighting, so that I can forward it to my bro?

Thanks!
john

 

[IsaacHayes]

Darn I'm too late. This was too easy!!! I remember your cert on the flashlight!
Nice lights, keep up the good work!

:mecry:
barbarin, next question please, i'm ready now

 

[TigerhawkT3]

Uh, don't ads belong in the Dealer section?

 

[sejvaar]

Actually the "European" firefighting helmet design is far superior to the traditional "American" style. Having used both there is no contest with regard to function and protection. The only reason to stick with the old style is it "looks" a certain way...

I am all for tradition but not when it is retarding progress.

 

[chimo]

Hi Javier, thanks again for doing this. Nothing seen yet on my end - any update on shipping? Cheers,

Paul

 

[chevrofreak]

What about Pelican? Back in 2004, maybe even earlier, they had a "recoil LED" flashlight that was meant to cut through smoke.

 

[chimo]

Well, I guess I should give an update to everyone.

I would have posted a review but I never received the light. I made several attempts to contact Javier. They were busy moving between factories so I was patient (see original post date). I even eventually got a couple of replies... but no light.

Oh well, nothing ventured, nothing gained...

Sorry to hear that Paul. :thumbsdow Next trivia question, I'll give you my guess
