I don't know why I bought ten AAA's when all I needed was eight. I guess I'll just have to give two away.

Here are my rules -

1. They are for some deserving flashaholic to give away as Christmas gifts.

2. To qualify, you can't be able to afford to buy these yourselves.

3. If you have a half dozen Surefires and ARC's but don't have any cash at the moment, you don't qualify.

4. PLEASE do not ask for these just because you do not want to spend your own money. Let someone who truly is in need have a chance to get them.

5. Sometime Thanksgiving morning I will pick a name from a hat of the people whom ask to be considered in this thread.

Good Luck and please be honest.

Re: Christmas gift for ?

Wow this is a very generous offer! CPF amazes me.

You'll love the Arc AAA (whoever gets it.) It can take a lot of damage. Mine has two parts of the head that is dented in from being abused by college kids and Marines. Numerous batteries have been destroyed from impact. Swap it out with a new one and the Arc keeps shining.

I carry it 24/7 with my dog tags.

Great offer!
Jason

Very tight budget here. Would give to my father who is an inspector for the FAA. He currently carries an Inova microlight.

Re: Christmas gift for ?

Thanks for the kind offer ksbman, I'll swallow my pride, please add me to your "nice" list. My wife & I lost our jobs due to NAFTA so anything will help. I've already got an Arc AAA but would use another as a gift.

Merry Christmas!

Very generous offer indeed /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif I would give it to a lifelong friend in need of some 'arc-science'.

Re: Christmas gift for ?

I'd like to apply. I've got two lights at the moment (well, actually three counting the Solitaire, but i count that as an liability rather than a light): Mag 2C w/ KPR112 that i won from generous CPF'er kz1000s1, and a Dorcy AAA.

I've bought Dorcy AAAs for my family as gifts, but i do think i would love giving my father an Arc AAA instead.

Just a college student checking in /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/broke.gif

Rats...

Looks like I'll have to place an order with ARC tomorrow to ease my broken heart.

Re: Christmas gift for ?

Alas, this IS an entry. I haven't won any lights from the generous people of CPF to this point, nor am I able to afford expensive lights myself. Pick me and I'll be thankful that I can re-gift something nice this year. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

ksbman,

You seriously ROCK! (this is not an entry)

Keith gave me a Brinkmann LX with a B270 glass lense from FlashlightLens.com, spare bulbs and batteries.He does a lot for people on this forum, from give aways to standing in line to mail stuff for folks he doesn't even know.

Keith IS the man!

NOT AN ENTRY

But a great Christmas present! WOW.

I do like the clips. Are they McGizmo's?

Last year my boys and a good friend got Arc AAA LEs.

This year, the boys are getting the tricolored changing ARCs.

WAY TO GO!
