Thanks much George :bow:
Just for fun I want to try to make a new tailcap that would have a small hole (or something) that would allow me to carry my 501W on my key chain like I do today with my CR2 Ion

George,
I lost my 501w light!!!
Well, not "really" lost - I know where it is ...
I have been carrying the 501w as my EDC, and this morning I was in our lab talking to one of our engineers. Like a true flashaholic I was showing off my new EDC, and the engineer inmediately fell in love with the 501w. He simply could not believe something that small, and using a simple AA cell could be available.
He said:
"This thing is great!". I am leaving on vacation tomorrow and it would be great to have one for myself. Where can I buy one?
I said:
On the Internet. And I showed him the web site.
He said:
Can I buy this one from you, cash?
I said:
OK, I will just get another one. And he paid me $65 cash for mine.
Of course, they are out of stock now, so please, do let me know when they are back in stock as I want my 501w back !!!

I got my H501 and its great!
now I'm thinking about battery options. I have a energizer charger with 2 energizer 2000mah cells. Can I use the same charger with some Sanyo 2700mah cells.
Also my Energizer charger is the kind that can charges 4 batts at the same time. but at a minimum you have to charge multiples of 2 on ether channel
Also, do sanyo NIMH batts have a PCB?

I didn't get all the specs from George but he just referred to it as his new EDC line coming out. It runs on one 123 and I believe the emitter was either a XP-E or XP-G. Natural HAIII and feels great in hand.

I think he is talking about your lights in the picture.
thank you!
Oh, I think your talking about the Fenix PD20. Note that the Fenix PD series is regular reverse clicky, not Piston Drive. It's a fantastic little light, beam pattern is flawless and throw is excellent for such a small reflector. Only hit on the light is that it only runs on primary 123's

By the way, the 501W is back on stock, so I just ordered my replacement light :twothumbs

Well that was fun..... lots of fond memories......
Someone compile a list of everyone who attended or was interested so we can do this again.
I have a light on order that supposed to out-throw the BB... so we will see!

That was a lot of fun. Should do it again in the spring. BTW I don't know if you saw my thread on on encapsulation but I have decided to put a modified XR-E in the Art Light that you saw. Should have about twice the lux as a regular DEFT! I can't wait to get this done. We might have to have a meet sooner so I can show it to everyone before it gets sold.

I have been keeping a list updated, and my PM list gets bigger each time. We usually shoot for a GTG every 6 mo. or so, but I have never been able to predict the goofy Texas weather. Yesterday or today would have been a great day to have one! We'll shoot for spring, but if something comes along, give your ideas and I'll get the ball roiling.
If we have to, we can move it inside for a winter GTG.

We are at a place finacially just now that kept me from making this one. BUMMER!
Looks like some new blood showed up. Looks like some cool lights and lasers showed up.
Oh well, maybe I can make the first '10 get together....

I plan on having two more toys the next time we meet.. both of which will outperform the BB.
Lol, you must have one of those Metal Halides that police choppers use

sorry I missed it. Family issues have been taking most of my time for the last several years.
