300 pcs? I guess that idea is shot lol.

Why so?

I figured they'd go fast? No?

 

[ven]

There will be 300 x No1 and 300 x No2 :laughing:

Looking closer at the UI i dont like at all.................as Ken said,if had a control ring like the v11r then a must buy imo.

SWM dealer has ordered a few, and think I'll buy one -my first trits light coming??

 

[Tmack]

Me too. I've never seen a trit. Would love to throw some in a few laser builds.

Or some knives.

I didn't like the original M11R because of the UI. If it was like the V11R, I'd be all over it...

 

[markr6]

Don't drop it! Sure looks like it would "fall hard"...and at that price, I would cry :mecry:

Not like a Vinh sale, if that's what you're thinking. It's kinda of a speciality item. Now if you're holding out for a clearance sale or something, yeah, but if you just want one, I bet you'll be able to, no problem.

Who's selling it? Can't find dealer on the web.

 

[Tmack]

That was my next question

Group buy? I really like the idea of the trits. Drives me nuts, groping around my dresser for a light at night. All I can see is my watch face.

Not in stock then, I say. Released yesterday if I'm correctly. So will take at least 2-3 weeks before it arrives at the dealers.

I'm with it. Yeah I'm interested in the trits too. How much is it to get a dozen put in an existing light?

Varies by the light. A couple have actually come with holes for them

This was an interesting mod

I've seen a couple guys doing them though.

[Tmack]

Aww he was so close. Looked great though.

Hi Tony,
Looks like the light comes stock with "equipped with 6 world-class top-rated green Tritium tubes" , so if half a dozen is good enough for you, the stock light looks good enough.

If you desire more, then you'll have to either mill the extra slots or get it milled as a service.

If it is trits you're after, it is worth over doing...

 

[Tmack]

Haha I gotcha

Oh I would consider myself a overdoer
I would like as many as I can get really.
Would love to get some in my new sebenza.

I threw a light behind the amber inlay.

I know it would be nowhere near that bright, but I think a high end blade would look sick covered in trits.

By the way, I asked Sunwayman, and they say that the dream will be available in early September.

That takes awhile....

This looks cool, but I'm disappointed that some of the modes (firefly especially) are hidden by weird twist sequences. The essence of the control ring's superiority as a user interface is that it's simple and you don't need any special knowledge to use it, and hiding modes in it seems to undermine that simplicity.

They seemed to have made a mess of what is supposed to be a simple intuitive interface.

Agreed. I think its important to get the basics of a light right first before adding the "whip cream on top!"
