Looks cool!

Yes! Worth having this

1 Thank
4

Can it be disassembled without breaking? :slight_smile:

5

Well, you can´t deny slight similarities to the products from a famous austrian company :wink:

6

Not yet, because it is not the same structure as a pistol

1 Thank

HAHA, This product gives you some surprises when you are bored

I Love dual lights. The powerbank function is also very nice.

9

Looks like a very durable and industrial design.

10

Yes, the power bank function is very convenient.

11

All-metal aluminum alloy

I like the dual-battery approach! But why not a 14500 or 18350 as the removable one? About the same capacity, and a more common battery size than the real oddball 16280 would be worth the light being a few mm longer/wider IMO.

Hint to anyone that might be confounded: I only got the joke after seeing the last pic in the kickstart page :grin:

It does look somewhat similar to my Glock 24 :grin:

Hopefully it’s just as robust.

I like it. It looks like I’m shooting a laser if I slide it down :slight_smile:
I have some questions though:

  1. Would the flashlight still works only with the integrated battery?
  2. If both batteries are inside, which one will be used first until it is empty?
  3. If both batteries are inside, when charging, which one will be charged first?
  4. Which LED is used for the throw?
  5. Sliding 1 side will open the battery compartment?
  6. Will sliding down perform any action? since I will probably fidgeting that one up and down, if I have that mechanism in my hand :smiley:

Thank you for the GAW btw.

2 Thanks

Certainly a uniquely styled flashlight. I’m not sure I understand the reason for dual batteries with one removable and the other integrated. Thanks for the GAW!

17

This looks great!

18

That’s more like a Glock 17.

19

Yes, the small battery does not give you much extra runtime.

IIRC the internal battery will be used first.

I wasn’t able to find any official references or datasheets.

For the small battery, yes.

Nope.

Thanks for the detailed answer.
It seems the small battery is just serve as an emergency to be able to swap in a full battery, in case all batteries are empty.
