Sorry if I have missed this, but is there a time estimate on the twisty? SUPER excited for it.

I just finalized the Twisty design and sent in an order for 30 to be made. I made some very bold designs changes. I am sure there will be a split decision between love and hate...Would you guys rather be surprised or see the design now?

In the mean time I have to kill the P650.2 version due to heat. Just too much heat....
LilV with XPL 5000K is the recommended reliable choice for ultra bright mule

Wow even in the SLN? Melting solder-hot? Yes the LED leads melts and pop off the MCPCB.... P640 5000K Coming soon. I just need to get caught up before I can start playing around again. ;-)

I'm getting a twisty either way, so I don't mind either... :thumbsup:

OK so I know the tail cap looks pretty nuts but hear me out:

1) Three are 21 3mmX15mm Slots.
2) Leave all all slots empty for exceptional grip
3) Fill in every other slot for medium grip and night identification
4) Fill in every slots and make an almost 360 lantern tail cap (3 slots spot used for clip)
5) Pocket clip triples as rolling prevention and lanyard attachment point

Question:
Which tail cap design do you prefer

A)

B)

*Ignore the hole in the center. It wont be there for the production tail cap obviously.

I like option A.

I like the smaller profile. Its a bit more minimalist and if you want to fill it with trits it is an option. I feel like you almost have to put at least 3 trits at the bottom or the tailcap B or it will look like it is missing something with the empty slots.

Option A will look good WITH or WITHOUT trits.

Wow. Love them both, but have a slight preference for the larger logo and "USA" on A. I just placed an order for tritium futures...

Should we make the "SL" logo smaller and centered. "USA" can be smaller and under it.

Version A for me, this looks FANTASTIC!!! My gosh, loaded with trits, that is going to be something to see wow.

The question is do I go bare AL or Anodized LOL. (I have 2 SLN)

I just got a rough quote.
$105 for 21 trits labor installation
$75 for 11 Trits Labor installation
Lots of labor since only a couple can be installed and cured at a time.


So....


$12 * 11 = $132 => $207
$12 * 21 = $252 => $357

Or Free if you leave them blank for grip ;-) hahah
