I did it, I bought it!!!

I thank everyone on the site for their comments and answers to my questions. Just about 10 minutes ago I purchased the L1 Lumamax ( white LED) from Onestopknifeshop.com

I thank everyone!!

Does anyone know how long it will take to arrive?

Will you be receiving the new L1 with 3W LS or the old L1 with 1W LS?

Tom...

Not to worry! Which ever one you receive will be fine.

congrats corn! good choice, can't go wrong with sf /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/happy14.gif

I will be recieving the 1 Watt version. I know it isn't as good as the 3 watt, but..... It will do for camping.

Cornkid:

Not only that, but your batteries are probably gonna last a lot longer, which may save your happy a_s someday. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/happy14.gif

Which one uses less power?? 1 watt right??

-tom

All other things being equal, yes, 1 watt.

Now comes the worst (or best?) part... the waiting time!! COngrats in advance on your wonderful purchase, I'm sure you'll like it!! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif

I have purchased knives from 1SKS. Good service, shipped most items the next business day. Give them a call on Monday, and confirm stock and shipping etc... Enjoy.

That is really the worst part about lights, the wait. JSB is not the only one who wishes he had a teleporter... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif (I'm waiting on R123s, a package from the sandwich shop, the Digital Ultra, 3toD adapters, Carley reflectors and 1185s - last 4 have not been paid for because they are not available.)

cornkid, congratulations on your purchase and the first of many lights to come. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif The nice thing about SF lights is that no matter what you purchase, you're almost certainly going to like it.

Congrats! I like the L1 too although I did not purchase it. I ended up getting the E1e with the KL1 LED conversion head. Great light. I am sure you would want to meddle with it every night.

Thank you for everything. I really hope I don't have to wait for more than a few weeks. That would suck.

I would have been too late for your first post, but Surefireparts (goes by 'jcciv' on CPF) has been very helpful and timely in satisfying my addiction for ever brighter lights. His Global Priority shipments are so timely I could set a calendar by them. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
