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

The “lower 40uA” is for off, the 12mA for on, but at minimum. I was completely confused by the term “switched on” regarding the 2020 model. Ok?

Found a different meter and could repeat the measurement: Off is 26uA.

I haven’t had a problem with any of the rotary’s turning on accidently but I guess with the right force its possible.
If you dont like the thought of a possible accidently activation then Sunwayman rotary’s might be your cup of tea. They only come on if the tail switch is pushed and the dial stays where ever it was when you turned it off by pressing the switch button. They are hard to find now a days but a used one pops up ever now and then. I think the V11R is still around for sale in a few places. The V10R Ti is quite nice but rare.

The 2020 Jetbeam RRT01 also has a tail switch, just like the Sunwayman V10R and V11R.

Anyone else dislikes the silly post with hole for keyring at the tail end of the 2012 RRT01 and the TC-R1?

Wouldn't it be so much nicer if it had a flat wail with some trit slots?

Its my least favorite part. It supposedely unscrews but I haven’t been able to break one free yet.
I know I can get it out but it would require shall we say “Unconventional methods”. :smiling_imp:
.

I had forgot about the new one. That be a option also.

Yes. Or a tail like the sunwayman M11R Ti Dream. Or the custom machined tail by Jeff Hanko.

I did know that existed. Does anyone have a photo?

Time to drool

I have several of these - you can still manage to use trits like this
or on the EYE 10

Not at all bad!!!

That is one way to do it, for sure.

My solution to the issue:

Trits to be populated soon.

Really nice

Very nice. Would really like to get one of those.

Custom made by a British machinist, to my specs. You may not want to get them once you hear the price. And he may not want to do them again :slight_smile:
Hand made by the way, not on CNC. Perfect precision and tolerances. The trits fit quite snuggly, they don’t swim around and need to be centred like commercial trit buttons.

Wow! :beer:

So, Multicolour or Blue? Vote!
Keep in mind that I will never actually be able to see both the Timasus pattern and the tritium colours at the same time, as it requires both natural an UV light at the same time to take these pictures, so it will be timascus with white vials in the light and glowing vials in the dark.

Blue!!

Blue

That looks BlueTiFull!

if without discs, I also like these options:

and

The post can be useful, with the addition of a small jump ring, to consolidate key items:

the small ring folds away to allow tailstanding

Thank you jon_slider.

I do not agree with the use of tritium vials outside specially designed grooves, as I consider it unsafe. They are too fragile and the tritium is harmful if inhaled. Granted, in this case the recess at the back of the TC-R1 is probably protective enough, but still not as much as with the disks.

The vote is in and blue won by far. So, here you go...
