Agreed, that would be perfect, and so durable. But proper thick hard anodising is a slow cold expensive process, I doubt Lumintop would know how, even if the alloy is suitable. It would be nice if they could though, it would lift it into a different class.
Rarely seen on a torch despite claims, the only one I have with it is an Inova X1, but I’ve also seen it on Surefires and I think Zebralight. None of which are $30 torches.
The main thing is no gaudy colours, and no bead-blast please.
I think at this point a natural HA would look best.
Yeah, we’re definitely not getting a good ano, but I still think it’s better than raw.
I like the silver finish. it looks unique. I assume they can get rid of the uneven anodizing in the production run.
Black.
I “vote” that Fritz decide this thing about anodization and colour!!

:+1: … /\ … Yep.
please put me down for 1. thanks
TK asked us for our opinions, so I’ve given mine.
Not sure whether Fritz is in tight control here, this is now quite a big project, and Lumintop will do what they do, hopefully listening to feedback.
Edit: and striving to up their game, which this already does no-matter the finish. Otherwise why bother with BLF unless you are going to listen and learn ?
Aesthetics matter to me, but I won’t get too precious about them on a $30 torch. Though it could be done beautifully and within budget.
Amen. :+1:
My first opinion is let Fritz choose.
BUT if he cannot or does not want to do that……
My next opinion is…
Just no raw unanodized aluminum on this $36 light.

Medium or dark grey would be awesome.
Not keen on unanodized/raw or ‘silver’ anodising.

Please add me to the list for one (1).
And for discussion:
I prefer anodized, color doesn’t matter much as long as it isn’t pink or such.

Bare, blasted, clear, whatever.
Won’t be looking at it.
