Thanks! I see the P1R Peacekeeper, 700 lumens dual mode clicky. Looks like a combo of the Fury-styled head, knurled body and LX2 type tailcap.
SF has filed recent trademark applications for the names 'Aegis', 'Wasp' and 'Mantis'.
A curiously abandoned SF trademark is 'The Eye of Allah'

Are you being serious? Or are you joking?
"The Eye of Allah" might sound "cool" to some people ... but it's totally offside to many others.
Might as well trademark "Slanty Eyes of the Chinaman" to describe the focusing abilities of a flashlight. (I can say that because i'm Asian background, lol)
It's no wonder SF abandoned that trademark. It's also no wonder that this phrase hasn't been snapped up already.
That phrase is persona non grata pretty much in any environment or forum short of a video game ... and even then they wouldn't touch it with a 10ft pole.
Anyways, to keep on topic, SF has some nice teasers ... but the difference is that any company can make one-offs or prototypes that exhibit extreme power or droolworthyness ... but making it to reality is quite another (at an acceptable price for the target audience/consumer) ...
Other companies leak out high performance specs and CPF'ers automatically believe that ETA is imminent and begin to speculate on pricing, battery options, various specs and availability. SF fans will wait for the proverbial hot girl to call them back. When that hot girl actually calls them back it's bliss and fantasy ... otherwise the dream keeps on like a wanting 15 year old boy.
What's also interesting is that I used to see VP Eng Paul Kim with a fairly high profile role ... he seems to have much less visibility lately over the last 3-4 years ... am I correct in saying that?
Lastly, that Annihilator sounds awesome!
