Thanks for the reviews!. I've thus far only skimmed them and will take my time later.

I've been waiting to get more info on the Hoffman Harpoon. I can see one in my future.

Doug and Kathy, thanks again.

Thanks for the hard work. Those reviews are thorough, thoughtful, and are probably better than actually being there where everything is a distraction. Some interesting entries too. I wish there was more new gear on top of the knives and lights, but there were plenty of the latter to make up for it.

I hope that ETS can bring about the lighting standards - would be helpful to have a nice breakdown of luminosity, beamwidth, throw, battery life/output charts (etc.) on packaging to make comparison both simple and based in real-world performance.

Thanks again for all the hard work you put in!

Great Reviews Doug, I especially like this line
