WTB: Jetbeam RRT01 – Any place to buy it?! + [RRT01 2019 discussion]

Great thread, now I want an RRT01 again, not to mention the Ti version (whatever that was).

If the battery tube fits the 2019 head, it would make a nice replacement. Does it? Will it be sold seperately? Little chance I guess.

It does look like the 2020 model uses the 2019 head and 2019 body,
with an added tail switch and trit ready switch bezel,
using the longer version pocket clip.

I’d say it’s not a trit groove but a keychain holes...

Not sure...

They still didn’t announce any info except photos.

Looks like it just barely doesn’t tail stand but I guess we’ll see. Huge pet peeve for me to “almost” tail stand but not. :stuck_out_tongue:

I guess it has a tailswitch, right?
Looking throught the lanyard holes seems to protrude a tailcap…

I agree, was dreaming of trits…

I hope its just the angle of the photo that shows the button and makes you worry (needlessly, I hope)

the whole point of the bezel is to allow tailstanding… and trits… lol
I dont need no stinking lanyard hole next to my button

lanyard users can still rely on the holes in the clip…

Im going to hold on to the dream, Tail Standing and Trits! :slight_smile:

Thanks. I’ll probably get one

fwiw, there is a BOGUS listing on amazon for the original RRT-01
It is verified NOT for the original RRT-01…
Do NOT Buy

Jetbeam told me 2020 battery tube extensions do not fit 2019 models (not verified).

2012 (I took these measurements)
Length: 81mm
Head Size: 22.7m
Weight: 47.1g (Exclude Battery)
detailed modding supplies list for the Original 2012 model

2019 (specs not verified)
Length: 81mm

Weight: 75.2g (Exclude Battery)

2020 (specs not verified)
Length: 91mm
Head Size: 25.7m

I sent a message via Amazon asking if they are willing to supply a coupon code to help clear out their “old inventory”. They have decent storefront ratings so we’ll see. I will update

Be careful, I ordered one from them and what they sent was the 2019 model. (on the way back to Amazon)

Thank You!
for testing the link for us

it was too good to be true

Did you inform amazon they’re showing a pic of the older model and sending newer models. Bait and switch. They need to change their pic.

Yes, the company has both models listed. I gave amazon both listings and what the company did.

:+1:

Probably why they never responded to me since I specifically said old inventory. Thanks for taking one for the team

contactcr and moderator007, thank you also for trying to help us get a deal

for those interested, the australian source still has stock… even though its kind of expensive with shipping… this is a legitimate vendor, I have done several group buys from:

anyone can use that link to buy direct…

I love mine, but I think people have moved on to Anduril… and do not appreciate how much “better” (for me) the RRT-01 UI is, than ANY light with a button… yeah, call me biased… lol

jon_slider, I love the rotaries. Thank you for introducing me and helping me purchase many of them, including some quite lovely grails!

That said, I love Anduril also. I think it has been very well thought through and developed and I find it quite addictive!

I am a fan of both rotaries and Anduril. They are my favourite UIs.

agree
both options are good
rotary, and anduril

fun sharing lighting discoveries with you

Seems that they may have finally pulled the old listing. I did an open search on the Jetbeam RRT-01 and the old one never came up. When I followed the earlier link jon_slider provided ABOVE, it said “currently unavailable.”

I wish the original wasn’t so pricey relative to what the FW3A is going for these days. I’m glad I have an original RRT-01, but not likely to get another… except as used from someone down the road, at a decent price. Or, might go for a triple once I’ve got my light budget back up.
