arc ls into car fan undamaged.

snakebite · Feb 27, 2004

while helping a friend rebuild a 350 chevy motor his arc ls second rolled into the cooling fan with the engine running 2500 rpm!clang! and it flew across the garage and embedded itself into the drywall.all we needed to do was wash the dust off it.found no damage to the light whatsoever.
now everyone jokes about breaking in the cam with a flashlight!

Any dent or paint came out from the accident?

snakebite · Feb 27, 2004

nope.lucky the hood was still off.
he would have been pissed if the arc projectile dented the hood.car is a 71 chevelle with a fresh paint job.

You know, snakebite, you're probably fortunate not to be writing this post with a pristine Arc LS embedded in your forehead! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Maybe Peter will trade you for a new one. That's got to be a keeper for him. I heard Surefire kept one flashlight a cop sent back after he rolled over it with his patrol car (or something to that effect, maybe an urban legend, I don't know) Anyway, that's pretty impressive. It had to have been going at a good clip for it to get embedded in the sheetrock.

Yeah, pictures please. Maybe you can wedge it back into the sheetrock and take a snapshot for a little embelishment.
