Klarus has donated a RS20 to the CPF community for a good old fashioned passaround, as was common in the early days of CPF.
Klarus link.
RULES:
0. Do not fill up my PM inbox with questions. I keep a busy schedule. Everything is explained below.
1. You must be a registered member of CPF for at least 6 months AND have 50 posts.
2. You must be over 18 years old to participate.
3. This pass around is restricted to CONUS. You will be expected to ship the flashlight to the next participant using a USPS flat rate priority box with tracking number.
4. Post your interest here, in this thread, and then PM me with: (You will not be put on the list until I receive your PM!)
a. Forum Name
b. Full Real Name
c. Shipping Address
d. Email Address
e. Phone Number
5. You must post a photo of the light here, in this thread, as received. (Protects you.)
6. Keep the light for several days - maximum 14 days. Please feel free to use the light in what would be considered a normal manner. But remember that you are responsible for the light and if you break or damage it beyond what could, or would be normal wear and tear, you own it and replacement WILL be expected. Do not throw the light, use it as a hammer or pry bar, or subject it to any tests that could damage it. Do Not Modify The Light In Any Way!!!
7. Before shipping the light to the next person in line, please clean it up, wipe it off and in general make sure it is in good shape. Also be sure the batteries are not dead. If you run down the batteries, please be kind enough to pass the light on with fresh batteries.
8. Pack the light back up with everything that came with it, as packed by the manufacture for retail sale. PM the next person in line for their mailing address, include MrMom in the PM with shipping details and tracking number, and ship it out via USPS priority flat rate. The last person will return the flashlight to MrMom.
9. Post here in this thread once the package has been shipped - PM the tracking number to MrMom.
10. Remember - once the light is in your possession, it is your responsibility until it leaves your possession. It is also your responsibility to make sure it makes it to the next person in the pass around in a timely manner. I've seen how you guys can eviscerate each other around here for not holding up your ends of bargains - don't be THAT guy that we read about in the Jeers thread!
11. And last, but certainly not least, please take a moment to take some photos and make some comments, reviews and improvement suggestions here in this thread regarding your experiences, impressions and opinions of the light. Good, Bad, Ugly... doesn't matter. We want YOUR feedback!
Are you a budding reviewer? Post your first one here!
We reserve the right to determine who can or cannot participate on a case by case basis. Those which do not follow the posted rules will be BANNED from all future passarounds.
To keep this manageable, let's start of with a first group of ten participants. With up to two weeks play and added ship times, I would expect the first group to take roughly 30 weeks. If all goes well, I'll open it up for a few more.
To post photos so that they will appear directly on the page, not as clickable links, upload them to your free photo bucket account. From photo bucket, copy the URL titled "Direct link", there are four to chose from. On the CPF thread click on the picture icon "Insert Image" then paste the photo bucket URL which you copied.
Members with a CPF supporter subscription don't have to jump through all the URL hoops to post a photo. Your CPF supporter membership includes direct image upload permissions.

Klarus has not specified the final outcome of the RS20, it has been my intention to give the flashlight light away to a participant in the passaround who has posted a review via a blind draw. Are you in?
