Like Alex points out so correctly, some people reading this will think the Torpedo is shipping! lol Excitement abounds, as we look forward to the Torpedo X pre-orders.
Back to the regularly scheduled program....Guy, will the Torpedo have similar time-of-use limitations on Hi due to it's similar small size? I know it's got thermal protection to shift it to a lower beam if it gets hot, but will that be a similar amount of time...30 seconds or so...before it happens? Just wondering, with all the excitement over #3 and the promise of #4 (and #14 rumors) I can't remember what #1 is doing! Gonna have to make an MBI Cheatsheet notebook!
We've also got so much tease factor going on some of us are already lining up for what's next! Great job Guy, keep em coming!

Hi Dale,
Current spec is auto step down from high at 30 seconds or overheat (whichever comes first though I usually make it to 30 seconds just fine with the current proto).
When the battery is low, it does step down to the next lowest mode too.
So its all automated in terms of the safety
I think next up is #3R (landing next month).
Working on some specs right now for a few new things and I think next year, I'm gonna get seriously crazy.
There are 3 new products that I must make (I want them for personal use) and a few more that I'd like to have too.
Moving forward with the X run but still awaiting feedback before nailing things down.
Im very much loving my HF right now and the Torpedo, is really an intelligent HF with 4 modes and support for off-the-shelf batteries.
