Steve, if you’ll help me catch up… I’ll move to Aussie Land!!
Whew! We ran 14.5 hours today…. ummmm…. minus a sandwitch break of 15 minutes. For those that have ordered, please hang in there with us. We had stock made but “Happily” not enough. We were forced to return 60’ of copper stock as it was so beat up, it simply could not be used. The replacement is to arrive tomorrow evening.
As time moves along there wil be more to choose from. We have a C8 sized series in process and some other surprises. We will use this thread for updates at this point.
Right now we are concentrated on getting out the very welcomed opening flood of orders that came with the site announcement. :+1: More will ship today.
I haven’t been a P60 fan for quite a while now. But you know, I just HAD to have a full Cu TL flashlight, right? So, if I’m thinking of building a copper head to screw onto the bezel threads and house a larger reflector with a copper driver bay extension fitted into the P60 area of the TL battery tube, is that wrong?
Might not even be able to do that, with what’s on my plate, but my thoughts want to make it bigger, badder, meaner.
Thanks shooter, been there done that many years ago. What I was thinking was to carve my own larger head out of a bar of Tellurium Copper to go with the Tellurium Copper light that Dan makes. I’d utilize the entire light, save for the bezel. This would allow the maximum thermal properties which is, of course, where the M3 and K3 fail.
Edit: Texas Shooter, thank you! I got to looking at my old Solarforce lights (my M3 had a cell in it down to virtually zero, it’s charged to 32% and climbing now, whew!) and I inadvertently made a discovery! I have a gold L2P with one of MattAus’s silver plated copper pills in it, loaded with 3 Nichia 219B High CRI emitters and driven by Matt’s Hyperion firmware that he developed in conjunction with Dr. Jones. So I’ll use Matt’s pill in Dan’s light and have a 3 way BLF collaboration in this solid copper light! Woo Hoo!
A Texas Lumens, MattAus, Dr. Jones beauty!
(That’s North Texas to Australia to Germany, how can it get better than that?)
Well, yeah, if and when… At the moment I’m facing surgery on my neck so I don’t foresee machining an intricate large copper head anytime soon. So for now, I’ll put the MattAus silver plated copper triple 219B in it and enjoy.
