rpm00, eraursls1984, chuckhov, your names came up!

jabe1 and ronniepudding are alternates, should anyone not respond in a timely manner, or pass on the remaining lights.

rpm00, you are up first. Post your choice here, please, and then PM me with your name/shipping address at your earliest convenience.
 
Woo!!! So happy for this one! I'll take the Thrunite ti please. I have both of the others already. I'm in Canada and will PM my address.

Thanks so much!
 
rpm00, the Ti is yours. PM sent...you forgot something.

eraursls1984, the E01 is yours. Need to see that PM with name/shipping address.

chuckhov, the Tube is yours if you want it. Likewise, need a PM with your info.
 
Thank you!

I remember when the 'Tube' first came out that I didn't realise just what it was that I was looking at.

The name 'Tube' did nothing for me to help describe it - I remember staring at the photo with nothing of scale to guide me, wondering: "What is that thing? - How Big is it? - What is it for? - What does it want to eat?" :thinking:

Now, :thanks: to you, Doc, I get to discover first-hand!

Congratulations guys!

I am just sitting here, at my roll-top desk, smiling.

I have a 2D cell 3 emitter, dollar store light in pieces, trying to learn about the electronics that it uses. It has two transistors, two resistors, and a capacitor. I see that at some points it jumps the voltage up to 3.7 volts. I'm wondering if I can swap in some cree emitters or not.

I'm smiling because on top of the roll-top I have a penlight, and on the desk proper, I have 4 18650 lights, my key-chain with a AAA light attached, and then the one in pieces, and my grandson came in from outside and asked... "do you have a light?" His almost immediate response was... "Oh Yeah!" as he grabbed the penlight from the top, turned it on, and ran out the door.

It's the little things that make me smile. :thumbsup:
I hope you can relate. :)
 
Next giveaway is live! A Sunwayman P25C, donated by Sunwayman. (Yes, this one is direct from the manufacturer.)

I will provide a Keeppower 3400mAh 18650 with the light. Otherwise it has the typical accessories - lanyard, pocket clip, spare O-rings, spare switch cover, warranty and registration cards.

You guys can look up the specs easily enough, so I'm not going to go over all the details. If you enter to win this light, you agree that you will submit a brief review here in this thread (and I'd suggest you also post the review here). No need to be technical, but take a few pics if you can, and share your thoughts on the light. Emphasis on real world use.

I will say that it has some of the smoothest threads I have felt in a while, and anodizing appears to be top notch. I used at for a few days at work, just to get a feel for it, and it did the job well. (I borrowed the PD32UE holster for the duration - pocket clip doesn't do it for me. If you do use the clip, I'd suggest super-gluing it to the light...it can pop off without too much force.)

This giveaway is available to anyone, foreign and domestic.

I will take entries until 2300 EST Thursday, April 16. Winner will be determined by random draw.

Your post must include "I'll take the Sunwayman P25C" to be eligible. Please also include something interesting...a story, pic, video, or link. No judging based on content, but I want you to provide something of value to the thread. Commenting on other content or explaining who you might give a light to is fine (and in fact I encourage you to do so) but you need to provide something unique in your post also.

Good luck, and thanks to Elaine at Sunwayman for providing the light!

I don't own any 18650 lights, so it would be cool to finally own one.

Want to know pretty much anything and everything about batteries? My go-to place is http://batteryuniversity.com/

Yep, Battery University is great. Just be aware that some of the articles are not kept up to date...sometimes their numbers can be pretty far removed from modern tech.

How in the world does a ten year member of CPF not have an 18650-based light! You need to get on that, man!

Doc is giving you the battery and postage, but let's not forget Sunwayman too, right, Doc?

Quite right. Sunwayman donated the light...credit where credit is due. Plus, in exchange for my contribution, I got to try it out first! I view it as an opportunity, not a sacrifice. Saves me a lot of money, while still allowing me to handle a large selection of lights.
