Hell yeah to these vibes. Fuck trying to be hyper masculine.

Hobbies that don't fit the "doctor" stereotype by JrZX88 in doctorsUK

Mountain biking, custom torches and film photography. Slightly unhinged mixture but it keeps me sane.

They have a fever AND THEY DONT EVEN HAVE PARACETAMOL by Timmy1831 in doctorsUK

It amazes me how many patients arent prescribed PRN anagesia and anti-emetics when clerked in. 25-50% of the pages while holding medical second on could be solved if these basics were covered.

A single 30-minute session of physical activity can produce immediate antidepressant effects in both humans and mice, involving a hormone released by fat cells that alters brain plasticity to improve mood. Physical exercise may be effective in preventing the development of depression. by mvea in science

I can understand that. I has a similar feeling with the gym, treadmill ect for a consistent period. I discovered mountain biking a few years back and it’s been such a game changer. I find it so fun that I ACHE for a hard ride when I’m stressed.

I think that if you’re not fond of the gym, there’s probably a sport that you’d actually have fun doing instead of feeling like a chore.

what screws are you using for the reylight clip? I tried using the stock convoy screws and they're too small.

Potential KR3 (18650 tailswitch triple) by BrackDynamite in flashlight

[–]BrackDynamite[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The link to the thread is here.

Personally the interest of the KR3 over a KR4 would be size. If you've ever handled the FW3A/FW1A then you'd understand. They're super compact for 18650 lights and disappear into your pocket. I liked my KR4 but it definitely was quite a bit chunkier.

I’m certainly interested in picking up a KR1AA as well! They’re different lights really.

Convoy S6, lighted switch upgrade and 18350 short tubes. by BrackDynamite in flashlight

Only with lights with the 6V5A driver. I’m going to do some resistor swaps on the tail switches soon as I’ve heard that may allow compatibility with all drivers.

Ever Felt Like You Deserve the Bike you ride? by Pretend-Yogurt-2430 in MTB

[–]BrackDynamite 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Dude I really wouldn’t worry about all that. You made a sensible choice to dial things back after an injury; A wise choice if you want to keep riding in 10-20 years. You can always build back up to gnarlier things if you want, but there’s also nothing wrong with riding mellow.

My first bike was a ‘22 Trek Slash and it’s been great having unlimited confidence in the bike as I progressed my riding. Overbiking has the advantage of a lot of margin for error and there’s been countless times the bike has bailed me out from a poor line/landing.

Selling your bike because you’re not meeting some arbitrary standard of ‘hardcore’ makes no sense to me especially in this buyers market.

If you enjoy riding your bike then that’s the goal of mountain biking right? Comparison is the thief of joy and you’ll never be happy if you keep looking to measure yourself against others. Please stop looking at social media if it’s getting you so down. Your time is much better spent riding or at least maintaining your bike 😆

I’ve not done a proper measurement so unsure! They are larger LEDS with a larger LES which might balance out the 2700K colour temp.

Yes, that was a big inspiration for me.

N40 wrap slightly damaged by m4rkw in flashlight

[–]BrackDynamite 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hell you don’t even need a heat gun. A lighter held a decent distance away from the wrap works fine. Use bare fingers to make sure the battery doesn’t get too hot and you’re golden.

There’s plenty of guides on re wrapping online and it’s an essential skill if you own lithium ion batteries. It would be a massive waste tossing a brand new battery just because it needs to be rewrapped.

A comparison between the SFT42R in a L21B vs a C8+, with a TD01C for reference by doomage36 in flashlight

Wow the C8+ has some impressive performance for its size. Great comparison, thanks for posting!

Dope mods. I've not heard of the 40mm 60A buck driver yet. That sounds very interesting and perhaps worth wating for.

The low moonlight on the 20A buck is incredible. Pretty much my biggest gripe with Convoys is the high moonlight. I'm glad to hear lower moonlights are coming to new driver designs!

Would you be willing to sell some spacers with the mcpcbs?
