@CRX

I would think so. What I did with the 47 was strip it down to just the shell and clean thoroughly then with the head & body together I put a rod through the head opening and held it over the gas cooker.
This was my first attempt so I don’t have much advice on the technique except to heat the light evenly and remove from the heat before the desired colour as it will continue to change for a few seconds.

The colour changes progressively from left to right, it was the far left colour I was actually aiming for…

.

There’s also a way to do it with voltage

Thank you!

Thrunite Titanium AAA twisty…

Gotta love Titanium!

[ohnonothimagain]

AWESOME looking ! You’re very talented, onnha

[ohnonothimagain]

Yet another AWESOME one… WOW

[DB_Custom (Dale)]

CRX, I gotta say I just love that MT-G2 in the Ti 4Sevens light! Beautiful!

[CRX]

Thanks mate, you know how I like stupid emitter/ host setups
It was originally an XHP50.2 but it killed itself, worked out fine though as I love the MT-G2.

Did you do that Thrunite yourself? Very nice :+1:

[DB_Custom (Dale)]

I do my Ti coloring a bit differently. I gut the light, run a section of all thread through it and using a washer top and bottom I snug it with a nut on each end. Then I mount the all thread in my drill press and use a propane torch on the Ti while it’s spinning. Easier for me to get a more uniform heat build up this way.

I’ve had the MT-G2 in so many small lights it’s ridiculous! lol A chopped Mini Mag was probably the smallest, using a pair of IMR 14250’s.

[zeroair]

In for one.

[PBWilson]

I think we wait patiently (easier said than done) and buy it when it’s ready.

[ToyKeeper]

If I understand correctly, it could be a while. Getting things made like this isn’t a quick process.

The way this works is a lot like a kickstarter project… except people don’t actually have to pledge money up front, only interest. Then when it’s ready, everyone on the interest list gets a notification that they can buy it.

[wle]

Was there any initial estimate made?
Can one be made?
Just a ball park number…

While titanium is durable and looks great, I do have to admit that when I grab a light for EDC I usually reach for aluminum. It may not look as pretty or be as durable, but the lighter weight in the pocket is very noticeable.

Also in a small triple like this one, aluminum conducts heat much better than titanium.
