Ok, so i quit school 30 minutes earlier so I thought YES!
When I got to my bike someone hade cut off the chain, I was like NOOOO! I live like 7 km from school so I ad to walk home...

When I got home I immediately looked in my mail box and there was finally a package from China.
So I thought it was the missing screws to my lens holder, but no!
It was the black tipped matches from Deal Extreme that I almost had forgot that I had ordered.
So i went in and tried to light it with my dx 30 and it just went PSHFFHFS after like 2 seconds! SO COOL ;D Im using binocular part with two lenses in it that works like the collimator lens from Nova, but better! Can't wait until I find my batterie charger so I can get fresh batteries.

Thanks for reading (if you did)

Ahh man, 7km of walking to home seems really borringg. especially when someone cranked up your bike for fun..

However, since i would never buy those matches myself, what is the quality of them? are they burning fast (i mean the sulfur/matchtip). or is it a slow flame buildup?

The quality is really bad, but they are great for lighting with lasers. And you get SO MANY! each box is overfilled. Sometimes they smell like someone farted :-? and sometime they dont even lights up, the black thing just burns up. They burn pretty fast but not too fast. Don't worry, they will last a hole life. ;D

Well, smelling like a fart, or similar, could indicate the use of a large quantity of sulfur. Something that could be used for using a tomato as a glowing lamp.. hehe search this forum on those keywords if you have no idea what i'm talking about ;D ;)
