Lots of Arc's in our hands could be modded just as well as new ones!Could those of us with stockpiles of Arc's send them in for 'the treatment'? I'd really like to get at least one or two into my hands soon.

I would be very willing to supply my AAA for modification if ARC supply becomes a problem.

I would also be willing to send you my Arc AAA-P if supply of hosts is a problem. In addition, after experiencing warm-white LEDs I've decided not to buy cool-white lights for myself anymore. Is it possible to get a Q3-5A emitter instead of the cool-white R2?

If Eric doesn't want to supply the Q3 - 5A emitters, you can now purchase them from Dereelight on stars and remove them by melting the solder. I used a hot plate for better temperature control, but some people have had success using a soldering iron or even an electric range element. Now I am just trying to wait patiently for the go ahead to send it in.

PATIENCE folks. I KNOW this is a pain waiting (I'm waiting too....), but I think Eric has a lot on his plate right now outside of building our lights. As far a I know he will most likely be taking customer lights for modding (nothing of decent quality from Arc yet) but he needs to do this when he can free up blocks of time to work on the project, and it hasn't happened yet. I'm sure he'll post here when he's ready to start building again, an hopefully that will be sooner than later. There ARE a couple of limited edition AAA's on Arc's site (Cowboy and Raider), that look like they would be cool MillerMods, but I'm not sure how the QC is on these. If anyone buys one of the these, please post your impressions.
Thanks,
Greg

Eric-
Do you still have your same hotmail email address from two years ago? I've forwarded an email to you and have not heard back from you.

You can remove me from the list (53 bfly). The Maratac AAA is going to do the job for me.

I suspect that after 4 months of no posts, not to mention addressing the posibility of modding lights that we all have rather than waiting for the brand new stock which seems unlikely to ever materialize at this rate, that this thread is just going to remain in limbo till the end of time...

The "LIST" is now closed. Eric will be handling each request individually, please PM him. I will reopen it in the future if need be.

Pretty much. I would like to get back into this but not with the black color lights because they don't have the fit and finish of the natural anodized versions of the past. I'm not sure why this is but I've sent an e-mail today to see what they say.

O.K., I'm going to mod lights that people supply because Arc is apparently going to take forever. First post, first serve.
