    Copper keychain light for edc

    Nitecore Tini Cu - milled from billet copper: https://flashlight.nitecore.com/product/tini/cu I've used a Tini alu for a couple of years, and it's about the perfect keychain light. I'm not a big fan of holding the button for 2 sec. to power on, but it has a very nice beam, and four well-chosen...

    So it does - it was so well-machined that I hadn't spotted the crack. However, it makes no sense to have to unscrew a half-dozen threads to remove the battery, after slipping it into the charger so easily - that would be poor design, and Guy doesn't do poor design.

    Copper HF-R I love Guy's products - this is my third of his lights. I just got my charger and copper HF-R today. The light is stunning - the new 5-level controls work perfectly and feel microscope-grade, and the High beam is amazing - even brighter than the alum. HF-R it is replacing on my...

    Got lucky on the timing and spotted the copper this morning. Just ordered a copper light (STT, installed) and a charger. Two separate orders, but you might as well ship them together. I think this will be my third or fourth of your outstanding EDC lights. I wish you the best in your recovery...

    FYI - I've listed a Ti HF for sale in the Marketplace: http://www.cpfmarketplace.com/mp/showthread.php?288678-MBI-HF-Ti-F-S (I prefer my Aluminum version)

    I received my Alum HF three-mode yesterday, and Love It! The dim mode is just right for reading the menu in a restaurant without destroying the night vision of everyone around you, and I really prefer the lighter weight of Aluminum vs. Ti. The anodizing is also very nice - it almost matches the...

    Um, what ever happened to the original aluminum HFs?

    I also had a QTC keychain light recently, and did not care for it. It required quite a bit of pressure to twist it, even with a very fine thread, and it became erratic rather than a smooth increase in brightness, once small amounts of wear and/or grit got between the QTC material and the metal...

    I'd request that the low mode on a 3-mode be more like 2, instead of .5 lumens. .5 would be useless for reading a menu in a restaurant, for example, while 40 is much too bright, and draws attention.
