The rose gold version I have sitting here is for my wife’s birthday, 8 days away. Yes, I would have opened it to see this light, but it’s in a sealed plastic wrapped box. So, I have to wait. I had it engraved as well, and am wondering if they engraved it after it was coated or before? There was a wait time, as if it had to be done coming through production, so I’m hoping the coating was applied on top of the engraving so there are no issues. not sure what would be best there.
I agree - that is a good pic. I really struggled under many conditions to get a pic that really does the beauty of this little torch justice. It’s not just multi-coloured, it is weird. In bright light it is gorgeous, with vibrant colours. But I’m sitting here under my relatively dim living room lighting and the colours haven’t been muted, it’s more like they’ve been enriched. It’s an extraordinarily good looking little torch. I put a suggestion forward to Olight that they should sell alternative clips for a cheap price - I think the Rainbow would look splendid with a dull, plain steel clip on it to provide a little contrast.
My S mini bead blasted arrived today. This thing is tiny, especially compared to my bead blasted S10ti from a few years ago. I will post pics of both when I get a chance.
Day after tomorrow, will find out how they did the engraving. The 16th is my wife’s birthday. I should probably have gotten myself a Kevlar vest, so I can make fun of her age with some modicum of guarantee that I won’t die for it. lol Few more years and I’ll be looking for a cane and a box of depends as a gag gift. (I could NEVER!, my wife, she’s as short tempered as she is short, no sense of humor at all) [oops! did i say she was short? If I tease her hair she’s 9’ tall! but if i did that the monster would come out for sure!]
It’s been a while since I’ve been to the site….maybe should have stayed away.
Don’t have any 1 x CR123A / 1 x RCR123A flashlights and have thought about 1 from time to time.
This Ti one looks really, really nice……
$102 later, I have a Bead Blasted one on order with 2 rechargeable batteries, charger and case.
Happy and sad at the same time. LOL
If I understand correctly, that wasn’t engraved by Olight. I think Banggood has their own engraving service, or maybe they hired it out. Mine is the same way.
Here are a few lights for comparison: ET D25A Ti 2012, ZL SC52, L3 L10, Olight S10 Ti, Olight S1 Ti, Olight S Mini Cu, BLF A01 Cu. Of all of these, the shortest one puts out the most light.
It’s hard to tell in that pic, but the last letter is an ‘e’, not an ‘a’.
