nope
Al is my friend
and one tiny copper AAA light
Al is all you need...
but silver plated copper is uniquely beautiful and practically achieved
Since this seems to be borderline silliness and earlier the superlative properties of diamond were mentioned, why not consider inexpensive lab grown synthetic diamond? A Cinderella slipper flashlight?
How about a Prince Rupert's drop optic mounted to an LED?
Dare to Dream!
While .999 silver has a slight edge in electrical properties and thermodynamics, it is neither practical or offers any remarkable advantages over copper or aluminum. Same with titnaium. It’s diminishing returns vs. cost and availability and usability. Would you pay $1000 or $2000 or more for a .999 silver flashlight that would only be a showpiece/paperweight? Sterling silver may be more viable, really cool and exclusive for a collector though, like a piece of jewelry. Something like that would be relegated to one-off and very limited edition pieces made to order for $$$$.
If I was spending high four figures on a flashlight, only one name comes to mind ...
Cool Fall
Absolutely DaVinci-class artistry in design, engineering, machining, and function.
$4k-$8k for a Tri-V? You betcha, if I had disposable income like that....
Methinks the SPY007 is still available.
The Tri-V is the McLaren F1 of flashlights
Precious metals need not apply
For aesthetics, I love the appearance of silver plated copper
Totally agree. It’s one of the reasons Alu is anodised.
I Ag-ree.
