Copper and Current Designs - Hinton AA/14500 pocket light

[globen6]

Hey CPF!

I've been working hard over the last few years building my "perfect" pocket light. The prototype has been clipped to my pocket for months now and I just love it. I'm putting together a small run of Hinton pocket lights and wanted to post here in case anyone else is interested.

Some photos of the prototype in 303 stainless steel (click for larger images):

Seems like the same story as others....
Shortage of materials and since it's not the primary job there's a shortage on want and time.

No shortage on want - I'm just as into flashlights as I've ever been! Huge shortage on time though, that's for sure. Family's been keeping me busy and I've been loving every minute of it.

I don't frequent CPF at all these days, but if you do the whole social media thing I'm trying for biweekly updates on both Facebook and Instagram, so feel free to give me a follow on there.

All the best!
