Latecomer to this thread, really excited by the OP, wanted to add my interest for 1, both SMO and OP reflectors plus batteries....
Alas, seems the wind is out of the sails, damn shame. Seems like so much enthusiasm at the outset... As suggested above, modding with a 70.2 to an S70 might be doable, but this would have been a nice turnkey model...
(Sigh)

You would think that Thorfire would be willing to release this light with a S70s driver, since the light itself is ready to go. I would still buy it and then swap out the driver for one with narsilm.

Anybody try PMing/emailing Miranda from Thorfire about this project?

Since Sofirn seems to be taking over the parts for the Thorfire built Q8, maybe they also have access to this light as well? Just a thought.

Jaxman X6 hunter
Thorfire S70S
Convoy L6
These are all the same with different drivers and emitters, yes? edit: X6 hunter is mechanical switch only it seems. Other two are eswitch+tail switch

Nope, all 3 are not related.

I don’t know. Try asking here. I’m sure they know.
So, we all love the BLF Q8 right?
WE love modifying it, making it brighter, more customized, better, and cetera.
First off, we have Sofirn which now sells the BLF Q8 MCPCB, the reflector, and the switch for anybody who wants to modify their light and easily swap parts, or make something completely, like a lantern

It appears they at least all use the same reflector

“It appears they at least all use the same reflector size .” Is that what you meant? That is not uncommon. It may even be on purpose. Lots of different lights interchange reflectors.

The height and width is the same. Just throwing out ideas for alternative lights since this is vaporware. Im not an expert…

The Kronos is just a restyled S70s. Both are good mod lights.
I’ve got a modded L6, but it’s not anywhere near $50.

Probably why the K70 got abandoned…… the price ain’t right for Thorefire!

I messaged Miranda about a possible resurrection of this project but all I got was a response that this “project is terminated”.

We are interested in making a new similar light, but not K70. It depends on you guys. How about any of you help gather opinions and do a groupbuy?
