I have spent a fortune on lights and etc at Buckeye Public Safety. While I was in there one day he told me about this sight. I checked it out when I got home and have been hooked every since.

Someone that actually sold a lot of stuff on here met me possibly on e bay, or on another auction site. This had to be oh...about 6 or 7 years ago? It was when this site was just getting started, and he knew everybody here. I got a good deal, and have ever since then. I come around every now and again. I have some lights to sell now so I'm back!

I think I found this site back in 1996 or so, maybe before. You can thank the DEC AltaVista search engine for that!!!

It wasn't eLightbars then either!

John Marcson had made a page called the UNofficial Code 3 Website, since Code 3 was late in the game in getting their own domain. It then transitioned into a place with equipment reviews and then a threaded message board on Boardhost.com/RAM4.

Oh the memories.... I love this place.

I can thank Pat H. for getting me hooked on the site.... My wife on the other hand blames him!!!!

Come to think of it, a couple of my ex's didn't appreciate our love of lights either....Laughing
