Re: Zebralight SC52 & SC52w

I'm on my phone now so I can't check it but I recall there is a link to another company that ships international.
When I looked at their site I think they only had the AA and AAA model.
Maybe they can get the cr123 model also.

All the previous Maratac lights were just basically re-bodied ITP lights.
They could take the li-ion batteries, but it wasn't an advertised thing. People just did it.

The last aaa is 2 modes and current controlled.
The driver says "worm" on it. Making me think it got some lumintop parts and not itp. The lumintop worm is current controlled 2 modes, but seems to have a brighter lo mode than the maratac aaa cu.. If the cr123 version got pwm as the aa version, i'll pass.

Thanks. I have checked the other site and the emailed them as well. The owner Mike said it would be impossible to get it via his site !

Re: Zebralight SC52 & SC52w

Just found this at their site, and had to see if anyone else noticed it.
If I had seen this coming, I might have passed on their Cu AA.
I really prefer clickys and neutral emitters, but I cannot resist the pull of the solid copper.
Especially at their prices (yes, even after adding shipping... though adding that to in-state tax is pushing it.)
Ah well. Should be on the way shortly anyway.

Now I'll have Cu: AAA for my cayenne medium Stockman, an AA for my chestnut Swayback Jack, and a CR123 for my golden maple Fiddleback Bushie. Oh happy day.

Maybe; let's wait for the first reviews to see just how good it is.

Re: Zebralight SC52 & SC52w

mine should be here by friday.

If it turns out bad, it'll be a good lookin host to send to vihn.

 

[MattSPL]

Interested to see some pics of it beside other lights to get a better idea of size etc.

That's sort of what I'm thinking. It looks good enough that if the electronics don't measure up it will still be a very nice light for a mod.

lucky, i gotta wait till Monday according to UPS, then again I'm on the other side of the US.

i agree, this should be a fine thing to mod if it turns out to suck... and hopefully install some bright tritiums in

Re: Zebralight SC52 & SC52w

I ordered one of these a few days ago... it should be with me shortly... Copper was the only metal besides sterling silver that I've seen a light made out of that I've never owned. Plus I have a few thousand primaries sitting around, I need to start using them.

It looks like they changed the stats up - I just checked and here are the updated specs:

Specifications:

• Length: 2.7" Diameter: .75"
• Weight: 94 Grams Without Battery
• Comes with extra o-ring
• LED Type: Cree T6 with a life span up to 50,000 hours. ( Focused Beam With Great Spread)
• Flashlight body is made of solid copper billet.
• The deep aluminum alloy reflector has an orange peel relector for a smooth beam
• Its proprietary circuit design features reverse polarity protection and runs off of one CR123 battery that provides 3 levels of operation
• Twist on for Low
  Twist on again for Medium
  Twist on again for High
• 3 Second Memory and then resets

Using a single CR123 Cell battery we got the following results:

• Low mode, 1.8 lumens output for upto 200 hours
• Medium mode, 50 lumens output for upto 4.5 Hours
• High mode, 260 Lumens output for upto 1.5 Hours

.75" diameter and 2.7" length seem accurate. Will report findings when it comes in if I have the time. Something about the design looks very familiar - I wonder who the OEM is...

Re: Zebralight SC52 & SC52w

I didn't even read all the way through this thread before I bought one. This will be my first copper light. I've been wanting a Macs copper light for some time; hopefully this will help slake my lust.

Changed local title back to the original - (not sure why it was changed before)

Interested to see some feedback when people's lights arrive

Here are some pictures of my freshly arrived light (along with a duplicate for another CPFer).

And finally, my extended Maratac family

Looks nice, but have you had any time to try them? What are your thoughts? Did you try an RCR123? What is the black Maratac light? Never saw that one before.

I have indeed played with the light a bit and it's quite nice. It is well built and very beefy! I like the fact that is has three levels. The high is actually nicely bright - even in the full business lighting at my office where I was trying it.

I have not tried an RCR123 - I'd rather let someone else be the guinea pig for that. The black light is called a "Maratac AAA Extreme Flashlight".

I'll find out for sure when I open up my CU123 in the morning, but isn't that the AAA version in the middle?
AA is a full 3" long.

 

[jorn]

The one in the middle is aaa.
Does the cr123 version got pwm?
