    Got my new g3 pro through the mail yesterday, pretty stoked (not so much if i think of the cash i had to put out for them) but im in the army till this weekends leave!!!! Impatience is a terrible thing....

    My g1s ran at about 75% intensity, what do you folks think i should ramp the new lights to so as not to blind my fish and burn my corals?

    Congrats on the new lights swiss! Are you a career serviceman or are you required to serve time in the army? or was that just kidding? I'm a nosy person - sorry.

    Service is 5 months obligatory in Switzerland and every year you have to go back for 1 month. I volunteered and was selected to become officer though, lieutenant to be exact and that took me 13 months to obtain on top of the obligatory 1 month "refresh"

    And i believe you asked me this before

    believe it or not, I used to have the best memory! I didn't even need a planner for my job - I remembered all of it in my head. I hate that that memory is no longer with me, or is it? I can't remember lol
