Hate to say it but this is stupid and definitely not worth 120 Euro...
Same functionality can be achieved for a lot less
Beyond the ridiculous price and silly gimmicks, they seem to have spent far more money and effort creating their marketing video than the light itself.
I wonder what they want to patent on this, as all mentioned features already exist elsewhere, although not together in one flashlight.
There is no way to file a patent on state-of-the-art, at least not in a legal way.
This statement of “patent pending” and the threatening tone with “zero tolerance” alone makes the whole project questionable, especially as any pending patent may be declined in the process, so threatening before having a patent is quite unwise.
Let’s see when they are forced to throw all the money they have into court trials.
Maybe that’s why the price is so ridiculously high.
They state 18650 battery.
Wow didn’t realise no one seems to have vision for something of a new concept, change is hard I know. Yes it’s not cheap but USA made small batch lights are not cheap either.
There is a difference between not cheep and overpriced and this light is overpriced for what you get....
Zebralight is also USA based and sell for about half price.
about the concept It is not really different from magnetic switch, ring switch or even regular ramping
Looking good for 29 Dollar

Lol, that vid is “so dramatic and so profound” that it seems to have backfired.
I’m not against the light. The more choice the better but that commercial was rubbish 
... did this ever end ?
Now I understand this whole kickstarter thing ..
I'd like to support this one and participate in some small way ... by offering to kick someone or something .
@Glenn7
The Wurkkos WK40 will have a ring for brightness setting.
Can you put the lamps name in the thread title, please?
Title updated. Yes that Wurkkos is interesting light with that selection ring but IMO totally different light.
Things I like, the (extra Alu clip) that’s adjustable that looks like you can make it up or down carry and slide it to you preferred depth. You can get a magnet necklace to attach light to your front for instant hold. Removable 18650 battery. Programable via USB-C to change output (eg moonlight mode) accelerometer settings etc
I am not impressed. If it was priced around $40 it would be worth getting one just to check it out. At the full price of ~$160, it is just not worth it. Simply not compelling enough!
I wish them luck, but they won’t be getting my money.
Ah I get it now! I should have posted this on CPF I think they will get it. Will do now.
Uhhh, do these guys realize right angle headlamp exist? lmao
Also, they just picked a Samsung LH351D with a micro TIR lens that has a wide beam…
It’s just a normal flashlight with some right angle headlamp DNA.
Does it look like it is plastic to anyone else? So we have a relatively cheap LED, cheap optic… cheap plastic body (bad heat management?) … but huge price ??
The only thing unique is the accelerometer for changing brightness. If it is anything like my phone, it probably gets confused too easily.
Anyway, hard pass.
Maglite tried this a while back with the XL100, except the light was rotated along its central axis (by twisting your wrist). It also depended on which way the light was facing as to whether you got strobe, SOS, etc. Not a very good idea when you can’t see the writing on the tail in the dark…
They’re selling that light now for $20. Granted, it’s a 3xAAA with much lower output…
Mag did the accelerometer for changing brightness thing over 10 years ago and it was really horrible to use or get an accurate output setting. For this light, the ergos are the only draw for me. A front clip light that directed down at 45 degrees would also be great. But this light isn’t it.
Sure, do what you want. You seem to be assuming that people here aren’t all over this thing because of the cost. My assumption is that people here aren’t all over it because it’s slick marketing laid over an underwhelming light that doesn’t bring any useful new features to the table.
I’ve got a lot of lights that cost a whole lot more than this one, so that isn’t really a consideration. My consideration for a light purchase is simply “does it perform a task I need done better than the tool I already have?” I scroll through that ad and the answer is simply no.
Why are you being so sour that people here don't find this light as amazing as you do?
