Re: Stus-List Headlamps...

[Josh Muckley via CnC-List]

The LED LENSER SEO 7R which I evidently fail miserably at providing at
providing a link to previously, uses this battery.

http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1046945-REG/led_lenser_880139_seo_li_ion_rechargeable_battery.html

It is a drop in replacement for 3 AAAs and charges with the ubiquitous
micro ubs.  I recommend it for anyone who buys a headlamp powered by 3 AAAs.

Re: Stus-List Headlamps...

I bought a cheapo Energizer headlamp from Canadian Tire after reading
several reviews. I'm happy with it. It's nice that the red light comes on
first.
The Black Diamonds overall didn't do well for reviewers and the prices are
high.

Quote from the SAIL magazine article referenced in the earlier post:
"*Sealant/Adhesive Choices*

Two products you should never use to bed plastic portlights are 
polysulfide (Life-Calk, etc.), which attacks the plastic, and 
polyurethane (3M 5200, etc.), which is attacked by the plastic. One 
polyurethane, Sika 295 UV, can be used if you also apply a special 
primer, but this is more complicated and more expensive."


I don't think it is more complicatedmaybe more expensive because 
the Sika Primer is expensive.bizarre reallythe Sika Primer 
will cost more than the 295 you will need and you only need very 
little. Sika used to sell small bottles of the primer (35 ml) which 
you would never use all of it on a window job but now they only sell 
in much larger containersPITA.ask around, someone always has 
some left over they are willing to give to you.


I might have some but it is old..that's another thing with these 
products..check the expiry date(s).

Hi,

The procedure outlined by Don Casey in a Sail magazine is excellent.

To add to Casey’s article, I traced the old port and cut the material 
slightly larger with a sabersaw.   I then sanded
the edges down to final size with an orbital sander.  This worked 
easily and produced nice results.


 I also found great prices for acrylic/lexan at eStreet Plastic. I 
used 3M VHB tape and Dow 795 both which I purchased
from McMaster-Carr, and I sprayed the under-side, unmasked area with 
Krylon Fusion.


Here is a link to the article.

Take your windows out, take them to any place that deals with acrylic

Let me know if you come up with a good glue solution...I'm looking to

Bill, where did you buy pole from and what the overall cost range, including 
shipping? From your comment you seem satisfied that it is worth the expense; 
could you expound on how you use the carbon pole vs an aluminum one? Thanks

Hi Bill,

How is the pole UV protected... painted? And have you noticed any 
effect on the flow across the lower part of the mains'l?


Most of the carbon poles around here are deck stow and have a cloth 
covering when not in use.
