I do not know what precipitated this, but suffice it to say the Arnie has always been one of our supporters, and made us lights when nobody else would or could. I do not forget things like that. Arnie mad them affordable for my whole team, many when they were college students and did not have the money. Arnie makes things we consider essential, Rat makes things we consider essential. My personal lights are all custom made, cost in the $2,000 range, and are as such impractical for general distribution, just like my personal scooters, and every other piece of gear I have. What is duplicated and reproduced for others is always going to be some compromise thereof. We stand by those who help us, and we do not forget them, just as I never forget those who interfere with us of try to screw us. Arnold Jackson and Barry Miller are the only two guys making lights that in any way make sense right now in my opinion. We have all made screwed up stuff in the pursuit of the right stuff, and we all admit it and move on. Just look at the first couple of scooters I made - the $8,000 to produce metal madness and the plastic one that idiot Stone copied. Anrie had some light problems and so did Rat - we put our heads together and worked through it. Just be reminded , before you guys get screaming at each other, who really figured all of this out, and why you know how to do it now, and that if it were not for that all of you would be buying bullshit useless boat anchors like the strokes have now, and be glad he ( Bill Gavin ) is not in the light business, or the rest of you would be toast.
