WTB Maratac AAA Copper

Nobody :frowning:

They all want too keep it… :wink:

Yes, unfortunately……. :frowning:

Greetings to the Netherlands and merry X-mas :slight_smile:

Maybe interesting for you:

Good price.

Nice but not really copper, its only copper plated.

I search further and do not give up :+1: :slight_smile:
Thanks!

I think they just copy / paste the specifications of the Aluminium model, because the i3E Cu is normally around $29 and it’s copper, not plated.
I’ve never heard of copper plated aluminium, but that could be me.

Hmmm… Now i’m not sure… :weary:

I did a quick search and found different answers: copper, brass, aluminium with copper plated and PVD coated. I think I have to search a little bit more :slight_smile:
But thanks, looks like a nice light for my AAA collection :+1:

Could be really copper, 4oz is 115 gramm!
Found this one: http://www.ebay.de/itm/162302334279?\_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT
Thank you very much!!!

Greetings from Germany

here is a AAA cu that is relatively close to you << click

May I suggest an Astrolux A01 copper?

I own the BLF Edition of the Astrolux, so sorry not yet.

I replied about your interest in a CuMaratac here

true, the i3s CU is Brass with a Titanium Vapor Coating (PVD)

the i3e does come in real copper, single mode only

another CU light that may interest you is the Worm Lumintop Copper Worm with N219 Arrived!

Titanium Vapor Coating (PVD)is what I thought too. I’m pretty sure because I work everyday with PVD coating and the Olight looks like Tin coating. But it is a nice little light.
About the Worm, I think that is a light for my growing collection! Btw, I own 2 Lumintop Tool copper, 1 Lumintop Tool Ti and a Astrolux A01 copper……love these little AAA lights.

I have one for sale, modded with 12mm FET driver and nichia 219C 70CRI 5000k on 10mm sinkpad. It makes about 800lm and the heat is immediate, a true keychain rocket :slight_smile:

However I’m afraid it would be too expensive sending it to your location…

Details here: What did you mod today? - #634 by will34

First I used the 219C on the stock mcpcb but it turned blue within seconds, then I reflowed it into the sinkpad and it works great now. I plan to upgrade the LED to a 219C 90CRI 4000K.

Here are my Coppers :slight_smile: 1 ReyLight Tool w Nichia, 1 Lumintop Tool w Nichia, 1 Maratac modified to XPG 3000k, 1 Maratac modified to ReyLight driver and XPG 3000k, 1 Worm w Nichia. (plus a Maratac w XP-G2 and Reylight Tool w Nichia sealed in their boxes still)
7 total.

I like to carry a Maratac body with a Nichia head. I keep a Tool body with XPG head and ReyLight driver in the car…

The combinations mean I have a Tool or Maratac w LMH Nichia, and an LMH XPG,
also an MLH Nichia, and an MLH XPG,
plus the MLH Worm

(I swap the heads and bodies around… my favorite carry today is a Maratac Body with a Lumintop Tool w Nichia head (far right))

the differences in drivers and LEDs means I have a selection of different Low modes, as pictured above, left to right
.6 lumens ReyLight w XPG 3000k
1.2 lumens Maratac w XPG 3000k
2.5 lumens Worm w N219b 4500k
1.2 lumens ReyLight w N219b 4500k
2.5 lumens Tool w N219b 4000k

there are also differences among the tint of the two XPG, and
differences in Tint between the 3 N219b

fun times with Warm and Neutral High CRI Copper!
I do not use any Cool White LEDs any more… since I became a High CRI snob :slight_smile:

All my lights use NoPWM drivers. (Older than Oct 2015 Tools and older than Oct 2015 Maratacs used PWM)
Present version of the Tool and Maratac are NoPWM (I do not know if Maratac AAA will change back to a PWM driver on the next copper run… the Maratac present version of the Copper AA has PWM). Fet drivers use PWM.
the Copper Worm is NoPWM

Very nice flashlights, love the patina on copper:THUMBS-UP:
My Lumintops have all Nichias….I really like the warm light especially with a copper flashlight.
Unfortunately I missed the Reylight Copper tool and the Maratacs :frowning: but the Worm looks great and still available here in Germany!

the Worm body is too heavy for me to carry it. I do like to put the head on a Maratac body though.

I like that the Maratac and Tool have reversible pocket clips that work on a hat… No pocket clip option for the worm

There is also the Copper Prometheus Beta, but it uses PWM, and a pocket clip costs extra (not reversible)

The Beta quick release works very well, but I find the light too heavy for my minimalist keychain

I dont keep a light on my keys, I prefer to use the light separately, but I have the option to put a light on my keys by having a clip on my keyring:

Is the Copper Prometheus Beta still a available? Really looks cool!
Is the Worm heavier than
the Lumintop Tool copper? I prefer to use my light separately and not on the Keys, so weight is no problem. And I prefer copper because the extra weight of copper feels more solid and worthy.
Btw, Merry Christmas!

Yes, betas are available Alpha Lights (18650) Collection – darksucks.com
The Worm head is 25% lighter (3gm) than the Tool head
The Maratac body is 27% lighter (6gm) than the Tool body






Lovely patina on the scales too. :smiley:
