(Email is coming with tracking )Discussion Thread.-- 1st BLF Titanium flashlight with tritium.

Rey's contacts are thusfar China-based :-)

BTW, if, as the OP suggests this will be a BLF-designed light, is there someone on BLF with design-drawing skills/software who could incorporate ideas from members into an actual design, with dimensions and all? And talk about skills: he/she will have to withstand with mild humour and tranquility all the mayhem that comes with multiple-BLFmember input ;-) . (Krono is my hero!)

This is an idea.. its from CPF;

I like this design.

maybe an AA version? (but we need to come up with some drivers that work well for AA cells)

but really, really, put those fins in the head, and if possible with slots for trits..

if we want to go Titanium, it should be ready for possible upgrades..

if you have the fins at the head, and with those slots for trits.. even if you dont use trits.. at least you can add them anytime, and I know I would like some ;)

Sorry for my way of writing. Edited.

What I'm thinking is to have a Ti shell only.

The most impressive one to me is this.

I’d probably be in if it was 18650.

Truly said, expert on "Pro/engineer" or "CAD" is required here.

how about the cut outs for trits?

I really think they should implement that.. even if its not obvious for trits.

but imho it`s better to have some slots for them, in case people want to add them, machining slots later is not what most people want/can do.

All the previous BLF lights were small lights. Enough with the popcorn farts, bring on the big guns. J)

Big Ti could kill your wallet.

Minimum quantity?

I would definitely be interested in a reasonably priced Ti host, 16340 or 18650 preferably and I agree with ChibiM, predrilled slots for trits would be awseome.

I’d like something similar in size to a C8 but in titanium. With a pill that can accept a 20mm star and 17mm driver with a deep driver pocket ~10-15mm and a thick shelf under the star.

For AAA host,price might be 25$,shipped. MOQ:200pcs.

not sure about the bigger 18650.

Me, thinking out loud: “interesting idea that will never work”…

18650 hook me up.

This is a great idea, I expect it will be difficult to build something everyone will agree on… but you can still build something great…

I’m interested… subscribed

The biggest obstacle for most groupbuys/custom builds is to get everyone coming to an agreement.

yep... agreement...where are the trits?

I would be interested, pending final specs, in a generously sized AAA shell/host. I’m still a newbie, so a tight (length-wise) fit might be hard for me to manage building. A solid copper pill included, please, preferably taking up space between host and head like the pill on the sinner host that djozz has pictured in post #13. I’d like to have some interesting knurling too, like the Titaner that Rey has pictured in post #25.

I’d also be interested if it was a 16340 or 18350 host. A small-looking light with a (potentially) big punch! I don’t know if there is enough oomph in a 14250, but a light made for that size might be interesting as well.

That is a task for Tom Cruise :bigsmile:
