My GF keeps telling me I don’t need any more flashlights…
Never mind, time to think about christmas(for myself), +one SS/Cu set in NW
for me please!
Edit: 5A tint would be preferred. But anything 3+A/D will be fine, 80+ CRI would be awesome,
B/C sometimes gives greenish tints.
Another question for the 14500 version: is it going to have one of the common (Omten) switches?
I ask this because I have several small diameter lights with switches that carry the current through the internal switch spring (which adds to the resistance and the spring dies from too much current)
Fork CPF? Somehow I believe if we hand these over CPF guys they will just buy to collect and won’t truly appreciate all the hard work behind these lights.
Frankly, it does not matter. I could care less if they polished them and stored them in an air tight display case or even ran them over with trucks.
What I am after is numbers - and big numbers at that. You see I am very surprised that we have only hit 200 sets (400 lights). I actually thought we would see 4 to 5 times that amount, especially given the rare nature of the Stainless X6 and Copper K6-14500, even the Aluminum K6-14500, and how many people never got the X6-SE the last go around.
Well, if we can work out the details, there’s still a chance of making the heat sink section out of copper on the stainless steel version. This way you’d get good thermal properties in addition to the nearly-indestructible steel body.
I can’t promise anything, but doing it that way would be pretty cool. Some lights already do this, like the Sinner Ti XC; can you imagine what it would be like to have this on the X6?
My bank account does fear that option, I should instantly go offline for at least half a year to avoid disaster…
But meh whatever. Lets see how this plays out.
I’ve posted a link to TLF a few hours ago since this GB was not mentioned there yet. I’d expect for a group of people to join in the next couple of days.
