Enrique, is there any chance you could be persuaded to do one of these with a neutral or high CRI XP-G2? That would be enough to push me over the edge. Probably no chance in this but just thought I'd ask.

That sounds awesome! I would be definitely in for that...What I'd love to see from you next, Enrique, is a knurled Mako in the same design as the Aeon and Nautilus. Hopefully someday?
Persco: I don't expect to be making any new lights for a while after the Aeon and Nautilus runs are cleared out. I also expect to be retiring those two designs; though nice, the design is expensive to produce and time consuming to assemble, so I'll probably be moving on to other things the next time I go about making a new light.
Thanks for the suggestions, though!

Hello Everyone,
Now that the Aeon project is wrapping up I am beginning work on the Nautilus Mk. II for delivery in late June.
The Nautilus is essentially a CR123 version of the Aeon, providing longer runtimes and a larger reflector in a slightly more portly package.
Here is a brief summary of the light's features:
- Ultra Clear Lens for 99% Light Transmittance
- Deep Parabolic Reflector for Long Distance Illumination
- Nichia 219 High-CRI LED, 114 Lumens Output on High
- CP Grade II Titanium Construction
- O-Ring Seals at All Junctions – Water Resistant
- Gold Plated Circuit Contacts
- 20.5mm in Diameter by 67mm Short
- 2 Ounces / 57 Grams Weight
- 2:45 Runtime on High Mode, Medium/Low Mode TBD
The batch of these is available at $425 each plus shipping ($15 for US shipments, $40 for International), and PayPal is [email protected]. Assembly will start this weekend and lights are expected to ship out before the end of the month.
There is a review of the Nautilus here: http://www.everydaycommentary.com/2013/05/muyshondt-aeon-and-nautilus-mk-ii-review.html
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to drop me a line at [email protected]
Thanks folks!

Hello Everyone,
Just a quick update: I'm still on track for an end-of-September completion of the Nautilus project. The final batch of Aeons will be going out next week and these lights will start shipping along with them.
Any orders placed before next Tuesday will be filled by that time. If you have any questions please e-mail me at [email protected].
eala: Not any time soon unfortunately - the Nautilus will make its way out and then I'll have to attend to a few other things for a while. Maybe next year!
Thanks folks!
Enrique
Wait, you mean to say that it's not currently September?! Yes, it's a typo.
