I'd definitely be into a few of these.. Mainly red, grey, and GITD that would be awesome!
Multiples of green, gitd, red and grey.

I'd be in for at least 2 of every color. The previously mentioned Mag switch covers sounds interesting as well.

What would be your minimum order to make this profitable/worth while to you? I would say so far you got at least 75 sold in this thread...

Just to give some perspective, the cost for the mold is about $5k. So if they are $2.00 each I need to sell 2500 buttons just to pay for the mold...at that number I still haven't paid for the cost of the parts. However, if it looked like I could sell 500 or so, I'd still think about doing it. That means you guys need to buy a lot more of my lights though
So in that sense, mag switch covers would be an entirely different mold. Anyone want 2500 mag switch covers ? I suppose their could be more demand for those than tailcap buttons. Does anyone make mag switch covers?

Did you REALLY think you were going to move 2500 units with just this thread?

I would be interested in 10 or so of different colors.

Well...no, especially since it's not a sales thread
I said in my post that if it looked like I could sell 500 I'd consider moving forward. Some feelers get like 15 pages of responses so I'm just "feeling it out."Any more takers?

So here is a poll...is there anything else that would make you interested in these? I figure if I'm going to make stuff it should be stuff that people want
Cheers,

You could contact a dealer here on CPF and see if they would be interested in carrying them. O f course I'm sure they would like to see some samples.
If you're just asking about ANY product,I'd like to see more C-series products. Heads,bezels,bodies and tailcaps.
Always wondered about a twisty or side clicky P60 host.

Archer,
Have you had any more developments on this? As I said before, I would definitely be interested in colored mag boots but I don't know if that's even an option on the table. Furthermore, maybe my interest is a niche market as all of my mag mods generally involve changing the color/appearance of the mag. Keep that in mind. I would hate to see you undertake this endeavor and not sell enough to even cover your associated costs. I thank you for at least making an attempt to bring this to market- it would be awesome.

Not at this stage, that is a new project and a new mold, and basically starting over in terms of cost. It might be an easier selling product though
I'll definitely keep it in mind, but it will be down the road since it also does not contribute to my current light offering. Are mag mods still as popular as they have been in the past?

Also, let me know if you have suggestions for retailers to contact. On my list so far:
1) Oveready
2) ShiningBeam
3) Illumination Supply
4) ...?
I know some of the retailers hang out around here so if you are one of those folks and would be interested please send me a PM or email

Hi there. I would be up for a dozen or so.
Are you planning "glow" colors ? This may be something that people would seek. Other then the green glow that are on the market, there are no other colors that glow I can locate. Just a thought.
