Challenge Week #1: Incandescent Only! (2021 edition)

[Katherine Alicia]

anyone know when the next one will be posted? it`s after 7pm here and I don`t want to start monday with the wrong light and be disqualified before I even read the rules.

Fear not. It ends 168 hours from whenever you start.

I'm about to start typing it up now. Little late this time; my sleep schedule's been messed up for a couple nights so I've woken up a few times not sure what day it is :thinking:

probably the lack of LED lighting.

Maybe! :laughing: Since the incans are more "natural" lighting, my brain could be confused by the "sunlight" shining at the wrong time of day!

It's time for physical education, I think it gives something about 1 lumen or less, but it can wake everyone around

Sorry I'm late, I just saw this video (my add-blocker was hiding YouTube links apparently :shrug:


That's only the second squeeze-light like that I've ever seen! The last time I saw one was back in high-school in the late 90s. Our old history teacher brought one of those to class one day. I think his had a head with reflector on it though; more a conventional flashlight, but still had the squeeze lever, and made the same sounds. Very cool retro light.

I knew I recognised this squeeze light from somewhere!

The E2D with the Lumens Factory bulb and Lightmiser tailcap was all I needed, although I had the split-body "Rothrandir" with TL-3 as a backup. The E2D worked out fine, although I'm glad I only had that sharp bezel in my pocket for a week. I got used to default fast-clicking the tailcap down to 25%, and it was almost always enough light. Nice warm tones. I enjoyed this "challenge", although I'm looking forward to rotating back in my HDS and Jetbeam Jet-I pro.
