Hi all,
So I got my heart's desire-the latest Pyrex-lensed 10x! (snip)
Thought I had a bad battery-turns out my wife used it doing some work around the house when I was sleeping (I work nights) "because it lit up everything" /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif and ran it to discharge on 500 lumens! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif Twice. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/faint.gif
She said something about 'how hot it got' and how she 'couldn't see anything at all' when she tried one of the retired M*gs first. "Oh, am I in trouble?" Yeah, if she'd had dropped it and blown a bulb. But now she knows a good light from a crappy one! That's a start. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif And she knows the Dominator is my pride & joy!
Thanks all for the responses I got. I feel kinda bad that I unknowingly led you all on a wild goose chase.
She thinks it's funny as hell.
I think I'm gonna put that light out of reach!
