My SF E1L vs. garbage disposal!!

[H2Orower]

H20rower, I have a gutted out KX1 head. If you are up to cracking the bezel open I can ship you the lens so you can replace the broken one.


PM me your address and I can drop it in the mail!

Sorry for the late reply. I've been traveling for several days and haven't been checking CPF.

Thank you very much for the offer Chris... that's very considerate of you, but I'm going to pass. I'm not comfortable opening the bezel and besides, I've become rather fond of the light exactly the way it is. It's now my showpiece. :thumbsup:

Thanks again though.

Not a problem! And no worries on late reply.

Sorry to Necro this thread but I thought people might be interested that H20rower's story now seems to be featured on Surefire's True Stories pages. Just scroll down to "Outdoorsman Takes On Garbage Disposal"

Great find SuperTrouper!

Now the real question is...

Will it blend?

... Chances are, that E1L will become a favorite of yours.

It is for me!

IMHO, Surefire E1L is the best LED flashlight ever! I love mine! :thumbsup:

The body's durability is surely more a function of the properties of aluminum rather than any of SureFire's manufacturing techniques. I guess it's impressive that the electronics survived the bludgeoning, but aren't SureFire flashlights designed relatively simply, anyway? How exactly could one fail?

How's holding the light-- are there any pointy metal bits sticking out?

 

[Monocrom]

Took SF this long to upload the story?

I guess there's still hope that my L1 Cree tale will eventually get uploaded as well.

Talk about a light with some serious character!

Holy s.. probably the best looking flashlight I've seen in my year of lurking + posting.

I'll probably order the E2L AA tonight.

 

[SiliconCali]

Well, let's see. That's a tough one, but I'll give it a shot:

Ahhhh!!! ... clunk, clunk, clunk ... ARH!!! ... clunk, clunk ... CLICK ... pause ... Oh my god, you're gonna kill me!

LMAO...that's funny.

I would give that light to the wife, and buy me a new one...

My E1L went one-on-one with my washing machine this weekend. It came out nice and clean and still works (No water or moisture inside). I know it is not the same type of punishment, but this is why I EDC a Surefire.

I think we are all wanting the video of the beam eminating from the disposal, as the light is doing backflips down there.
That would have looked pretty cool.:mecry:

HAHAHA, I didn't even think of that.
