Boy oh boy. :person_facepalming:
Where to begin⌠I guess there was a mix-up.
They shouldnât have gone to BG yet but since they did it looks like Simon is listing them too.
As far as I know the âofficial versionâ with the Biscotti driver and stainless switch is still in the works. Iâll post more details when I get them from Simon.
Not your bad at all. You probably did read that and it may have even been me who said it. That was the original plan. Several attempts at getting the coating right went wrong. It proved to be a real pain. I thought these clear ones werenât going to be sold with the black switch because the black coating wasnât tough enough. These may be just fine though. I believe the black steel switch is PVD coated but I donât think itâs stainless. The coating is being improved though because weâre using the black metal switch on the Desert Tam S2+. I wonât know exactly what these are until I get clarification from Simon. Stay tunedâŚ
Iâm not in the loop, but last I heard (quite a while ago), Simon was trying to figure out why biscotti didnât work right with a lighted tailcap. So I passed along some information about how the tail works, the offtime measurement, and the need for a bleeder resistor, and ⌠hopefully it helped.
But until thereâs confirmation one way or another, be aware that thereâs a chance it could have an old 3/5-mode driver. And it may or may not have a lighted tail, which is honestly kind of pointless with the black steel switch blocking 99% of the light. So, there may be good reasons to wait for clarification from Simon.
No word on hosts at this time. I would change this from a poll to a thread if it were possible but as far as I know it isnât. Anyone who knows otherwise please let me knowâŚ
J-Dub can you kindly ask Simon to sell stainless buttons separately? I got my Clear S2+ today. And it has the black button but started to fade and seeing out the metal color under black coating after half day of use. I better like it with the matching silver button.
Thank you!
