Per Jeff Liebermann:

When the site comes back up, you might want to dig through:
http://www.candlepowerforums.com Most of the users in that
forum make their own flashlights (and bicycle lights) because
the commercial stuff is either overpriced or not very reliable.

It's back up and looks promising except that somebody's gone
overboard with image verification. It's required for every post,
every search, and every preview - even when the user is logged
in.


Sounds like that sucks. Maybe you ought to notify them? I just get
a totally blank page when I try to go there.


I got a page or two before it crawled to a stop. The site is VERY
slow. However, new posts seem to be appearing on the pages I was able
to view. If it ever comes back, it's the main site for experimenting
with flashlights and illumination devices.

Oops... Looks like they're down again:
CPF is closed at this time in order to fix a
few things from the upgrade.
It make take some time. I don't know.

The grammar error makes me suspect that someone has been up all night.


Still down tonight. All I get is null--a completely blank page, no
source code, no nothing. Are they ever going to get that sucker up again?
