Looks like he’s working on it. He was halfway there back in January, but being a Rey Ye design, his half copper Mokume LAN looks way better than any all copper light I have:
Rey makes high quality products for sure but that Mokume Lan is kind of out of reach for me. I just want regular copper.
Yes, lighter color.
Thanks for the answer.
These lights are in general out of my price range. Way out of my price range.
But if there was a nice keychain-sized light with that PCB ano and that light could go on my neck for years and still look good - I would strongly consider getting one….or 2 (the other for my woman).
WWEFANS: Agro:The Ano’d ones are absolutely gorgeous. But I wonder, how durable is the finish?
Shipped a few dozens in April, havn’t received any report yet.
Thanks for the answer.

Thank you. Honestly speaking, for a smaller Ti light, the ano costs more than the light itself.

I see. Frankly, the cost breakup doesn’t matter much.
The look is both unique and beautiful. That’s a major part of the cost regardless of size, but that’s a major part of value as well. If AAA or 10180 light costs exactly as much as an AA one….is there anything wrong about it?

Price difference comes with the flashlights, not the anodize.
Rey, About XPL 5000K LED. Is it XPL HD or XPL Hi?

HD.
What no copper?
oh, I forgot about it.
One may forget an appointment, an anniversary. even their own children’s birthday, but one can never forget copper lol.
I have my order in for the Winter Frost. I think a warm copper is just the thing for next Summer.
Beautiful ti.light !
Rey,
I’ve been worried about the durability of this finish, that’s what stopped me from buying it.
There are others expressing concern in the FW3A thread:
That’s why I don’t think I should actually use it. It’s pretty, but I don’t trust it to stay that way if it gets used. If it’s anodized like I think it is, the finish won’t be very durable. The FW3A gets used a lot though — more than any other light I have.
Browsing the net I found that there are ways to put images on Alu anodization:

I would love to know what do you think about it.
The Ano’d ones are absolutely gorgeous. But I wonder, how durable is the finish?
I’ve had a lot of anodized ti gadgets over the years, the ano wears of very quickly with the slightest repeated rubing of even a soft pocket.
Do not expect to use the item and keep the ano on it, it will disapear, shelf queen only application.
ahhh did anyone buy these washers, could someone messure the inside diameter for me, wonder if they fit a fw3
im now guessing it doesnt, as the reylight is a 14500 light!
oh well
It’s 18mm dia.
