Lights Buy/Sell/Trade / Arc6 with K2 (Ebay limited edition)

« on: November 11, 2008, 05:39:18 PM »

I have a Arc 6 as received from Peter at Arc. I am the original owner. The light comes with both tubes, I have expertly place Bart's green trit in both tubes and they are in place with Norland61, the stuff McGizmo uses.

You will never see a light this small that is this bright. Period.

I paid $450+ via Ebay, selling for $415.

PP/USA only. Shipping and fees on me.

Comes with box, instructions, and I'll include 2 Powerizer unprotected R123's, these unleash the power of level 7.

General Flashlight Discussion / SHOT SHOW 2009 SUPERTHREAD!

« on: June 17, 2008, 09:06:24 PM »

SHOT SHOW '09
JANUARY 15-18 (THURS-SUN) 2009 
ORLANDO,FL

[/b]

Time to start a thread folks, SHOT 09 will be here before we know it.  Me and a few other Mods here at F-F stayed at a place in Orlando called the Parc Corniche when SHOT was in Orlando in 2007.   We had a ball to say the least.

http://www.parccorniche.com/ 

There is a member here Jayke who runs the show there, and will be posting here also.  Jayke has mentioned that maybe he can reserve the restaraunt there one evening for a meet and greet, again, this is a maybe.  In 2007 Jayke set up two or 3 rooms for us that butted up to the DARK golf course, which was perfect for shining lights at night.  We can get the same bank of rooms (Ground or 2nd Story) IF we book enough time in advance.

So............

WHO'S IN!?

Lights Buy/Sell/Trade / MaxLite Tri Rebel 100 _______________SOLD!

« on: June 13, 2008, 12:12:51 AM »

Bought this beauty from Mac, and with this coupled with the Sundrop, I over extended myself this month.  I have other projects that need financing, so something has got to go.

-MaxLite Tri-Rebel 100
-MCR10 Reflectors
-Flupic Driver board (400ma max each emmiter)
-McClicky Tailcap
-14500 750mah Li-Ion Powered (1 battery included!)
-Titanium Bezel
-Custom Heatsink
 
http://candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=123520
 
Light is currently setup in user mode 4
 
Low (Level 1) 15ma = 3000 minutes runtime
High (Level 5) 250ma = 180 minutes runtime
Burst 1.1 amp 40.9 minutes runtime
 
 
 

 

 

 


I think this looks great with the Ti McClickie pack.  Since I have an extra with the Sundrop, I'm selling this with the light.

The MaxLite is mint, the Ti McClickie has been carried.

PICS of head on Ti Pack:







Beamshot on MAX, MaxLite on right, PD-S on left.



Price is what I paid for both items: $625

Paypal fees included, so is shipping insured.

USA only at this time. Thanks!

Other Gear / 25th Anniversary G-Shock Frogman (Black Dawn)

« on: April 02, 2008, 03:30:01 AM »

Just picked this G up on another forum, it is very nice.  The whole case is Ti under the resin, not just the screwback.  The watch is expensive for a G, but you really have to feel it and wear it to appreciate the watch.  Every gear head should have a Frogman!

This is the actual watch:

« on: February 01, 2008, 10:33:03 PM »

I am going camping the weekend of 2/15, its a bachelor weekend (Keep BrokeBack Mtn. comments to yourself. ) for my buddy that is getting married in a month or so.

We have decided to cook a hog in the ground Hawaiian style.  I have done lots of research, and have a general idea how to do it in a Imu. What I am looking for is any tips that may be helpful.  If you have done one, got pics?

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks!

Other Gear / Small Fixed blades, the EDC flavor...... Share yours!

« on: January 13, 2008, 01:07:46 AM »

I acquired this lil beauty, then called Paul Long to make a Gator pocket sheath for it. 

This is a knife made by knife maker, Tom Krein.  Its a TK2 model, the steel is D2.  Sharp as all get out too.  The sheath is of great quality.  The other side has a pocket clip, well, for pocket carry. 





If you have any small fixed blades, share them with us!

Other Gear / Survival knives, hollow handled.

« on: January 04, 2008, 10:05:03 PM »

I have at a local shop a 1984 BuckMaster, one of 2600 made the inagural year.  It is free of the Pat. Pending stamp, which means it is a true 1984 model.  The knife is in OK shape, few marks, but no rust/major dings etc.  The compass is sitll in the handle, and the sheath is in decent shape.  The price is $400, $360 if I pay cash.  What do you guys think?

Heres a pic of a Buckmaster, not the one I am thinking of buying:

If you need to report wether CPF (www.candlepowerforums.com) is up or down, this is the place to do it.  However, this is not a thread (Or forum for that matter) to discuss CPF issues, bash CPF (Or anything CPF related), etc.  If you have other issues, take it to PM.
