$37 is a great deal for the brass pineapple. Itās basically the same as the Ti Lan but with a brass host. It is very heavy solid brass. However I do like the looks of the Ti Lan more. I tempted to buy backups because they are so nice. Have anyone modded them with different driver or emitter?
Maybe it means the Titanium is so shiny that is serves as a second light source by reflecting light. I have both the TiLan and Pineapple and there definitely is only one 219c emitter.
Dual light source, it should be mistake, only one LED. Maybe Banggood wants to say it supports both AA and 14500.
The price doesnāt include any trits.
I would be surprised if those Trits or so called ātrit vialsā were included in the sales price. If I understand the price @ Banggood correctly, it is $ 7,69 for one (!) trit vial. Looking onto the Reylight Titanium LAN I guess you need 4 trit vials for the head and 7 trit vials for the tail cap to have full fitting. So, that adds up to $ 84,59 on top of the price for the flashlight.
Personally, I am happy that the flashlight will come ānakedā without these trits for Tritium is known to be a radioactive gas, emitting beta radiation. I would rather put some phosphorescent epoxy onto my flashlights than any radiating material, even if they tell you with tongues of angels how harmless it seems to be.
I wasnāt planning on buying 14500 lights, but this post kept popping up whenever I logged onto BLFā¦ Now I have the Ti and the brass light preordered! Now, it seems I have to order some batteries and trits as well, you gotta love BLF.
I had to get in on the Brass Pineapple sale, visited a BLF buddy this weekend and got to see one in person. It looks cool enough in pictures but when you get to use one and handle it you really get a feel for the quality. A big selling point for me is the attached clip, not a fan of clip-ons. This oneās a beaut.
Yes, itās so heavy compared to an aluminum light, but Iām not an ultralight hiker and itās not TOO heavy. If I need a lightweight flashlight there are plenty of those within reach.
Also has some features which set it above the average 3-4 mode light:
(from the site)
Reverse polarity protection;
LVP (low voltage protection) for Li-ion battery;
Temperature control to avoid overheating problems.
Starts at the moon every time by default. After 8 quick taps, it will stop and strobe, if it stops at high mode, means memory function is activated. It will remember the last used mode. Another 8 taps, it will turn off the memory function and starts at moon mode every time.
