Yup!
I only spotted this Maxabeam on eBay the day after it ended, gutted I missed it.
Hopefully the BLF GT will show up and cheer me up!

Well, I love a top throwing EDC as much as the next Flashaholic, but even my pockets aren't big enough for this!
I'd love to see one at the next meet up.
Do they do a neck lanyard for it?
(BTW - that's a good price for a maxabeam! I wonder who got it?)

Anyone else found Gearbest shipping to have rapidly gone downhill lately? I found at best it takes 3 weeks or more and one packet (With a clear and correct address) landed in the correct city, got shipped off to a different city and then was returned to China. At the same time Banggood stuff is still turning up in a week and a half. You get more quidco cashback on BG as well.

My new Nitecore Tini turned up today. It' very, well... tiny. Similar size to a photon except square. Not much heavier either. The metal body feels nice but the chromed plastic ring round the lens, not so much. On the other hand.... it's the size of a photon and produces 380 lumen on turbo!!!!!!! You have to keep your finger on the button to retain turbo but due to the lack of heatsinking that's not a bad thing.
Not sure it' worth the price but if they are in a sale...

Yes, mine just arrived earlier this week. (Gone for Red finish)
Tiny and light - finish wouldn't last long on a keychain I suspect. But I'm liking the U.I. a lot.
Low/med/high/turbo spacing seem to be usefully spaced in output. The buttons are reliable and easy to use - running it in normal mode rather than demo. I like the battery level function too.
Wearing it on a neck chain. Nice little EDC.
A touch too expensive, but I think I'll reserve them for presents.

Not yet but keep your eyes open. I'm sure we will think of something at some point.
Photos definitely required.

So, we having a meet this year or what ? Come on Lee, there must be something up near Milton Keynes that would be interesting to look at. I'm good to drive up from London(ish) for the evening or stay overnight somewhere. ( In my new car !!!)
Done Wales, done Devon, done Sussex and Kent. Can't imagine there I anything interesting in Norfolk to do....
Or, we could just meet up in a pub somewhere.... Alesbury, Guilford, Hampsted.....

Yes - lots of nice things up here.
Some fantastic pubs and restaurants, Aqueducts, Viaducts, Concrete Cows, Follies in fields, Lakes, Churches, Wind Turbines, canals...did I mention the pubs?
Very happy to host up here, but since we are one hour North of London, I thought the general consensus was to keep it further South - below London. But let's have a show of hands.
Still trying to find a way of seeing some far South sites, like the Sound Mirrors or various bunkers on t'coast.

I'm sure James (batou) will be in for it if he can. Andy, I'm happy to pick you up on the way if you can get out to West London somewhere. Let' talk dates?
