The winner is the LR35R the smallest one there has the best and brightest lite. The batteries charge in the body via USB C, honorable mention to the LR40R for also being a battery bank.

Talisman of Charlemagne; a valuable and precious pendant from 9th Century AD, in filigreed gold, an oval sapphire cut into a cabochon, through which a relic can be seen and with 53 precious stones including pearls, garnets, amethysts and emeralds, is not just any jewel but Talisman of Charlemagne, given to him by Caliph of Baghdad Harun al-Rashid (d. 809 AD), which he always wore on his chest and with whom he wanted to be buried.

In 1000 AD, Otto III (980-1002 AD), Emperor of Holy Roman Empire, had tomb opened and took possession of talisman.

Then for centuries, it remained in cathedral of Aachen until in 1804, bishop donated it to Josephine Beauarnhais, wife of Napoleon I.

Josephine, upon her death, left it to her daughter Ortensia who gave it to her son Napoleon III, whose wife Eugenia kept it, finally donating it to Cathedral of Reims where it is still exhibited in Tau Palace, France.

"Racist" is a toolword. You must know that.
Any objective examination of the effect of "them" has to lead you to the behavior and ideology that is now termed, "racist."

Refute if you can.

There was a trailer park by the dropzone called the ghetto, an old grizzled master rigger (parachute maintenance and repair) had a trailer there with a skull and crossbones (pirate) flag. He had a list of people who did unsafe things while skydiving who he thought would bounce (hit the ground so hard your body actually bounces back up a few feet). He would try to give advice but hardly anyone listened, so he took plaster of paris and used it to fill in some guys crater who bounced and made it into a bird bath in his front yard.
