It's not that easy to just post a poll. We have discussed many color options internally and also sent Sofirn some rendered pictures of the colors we (the LT1 team including those many collected ideas of all of you) think they will look great on the LT1. Now, it's up to Sofirn to check with their anodizing factory what's feasible and what's not. Once that happened we may start with the poll. It would not make any sense to already raise everyone's desire for colors we eventually might not get. It would only cause disappointment on this thread and that's the last thing we want. ;-)
No, they have not made their decision yet (as far as I am informed) and they are really interested in getting us matte colors like dark green or desert tan/sand, too. This is why I tried to kindly ask everyone for a bit more patience until Sofirn is clear about the colors. We all hope that production of batch #2 will commence very soon.
Ive been unable to find definitive confirmation that colors will be offered. It seems possible and maybe even likely, that Sofirn may not even include color options for the GB, which obviously will come as a disappointment to many that are waiting thinking colors WILL be an option.
I like how the discussion is going regarding the colors. Good contact with factory and good feedback from BLF with great color suggestions. I hope this works out for the group buy since I added to my quantity to get more colors.
The deeper stronger colors are what I was hoping for. The blaze orange and the deep green and possibly the flat earth are what I want and will order most of my lanterns.
If the rich deep anodized colors are offered, I am all in. I am less interested in just flat coatings that look more like paint. (might buy one flat earth) but really would buy mostly anodized. If the current colors posted on orange and green samples are what is offered, I will buy black only. They seem washed out to me.
It’s probably irrelevant, but I would pay more for the richer anodized colors I like them that much.
I’m not entirely sure. At minimum, it should have newer firmware, a newer manual, and some sort of additional scratch resistance, I think… but it sounds like there may be other details too. I don’t have all the info about it.
All kinds of colors. Some or all can be done at home.
Some of the ceracoat information says a lifetime of a year. This material is commonly used for firearms. A year lifetime would not seem interesting to a firearm owner.
There is a chart in the upper right corner that implies longer life.
