I was wondering of an expected availability date on the various accessory battery tubes for the Pacific, in HA.

Lebkuecher said:Tin
If they are not available and if you are wanting to run some test then PM me and I will ship you out a complete set. 2 complete sets if your wanting to run two sets of test.

P.S. I could post a size comparison to an L1P if anyone is interested.
Also, I wonder when the Kino Bay will get an electronics update?
BentHeadTX said:I would like to see a picture of the size comparison, get a good idea of the size of the Pacific.
With the Pacific regulator, I can see a Kino Bay HO and Ultra coming out soon. Maybe 250ma for the HO and 400mA for the Ultra?
BentHeadTX said:Do you have any problems with the momentary switch turning the light on/off while in your pocket?
jburgett said:Yes, as you can see it is not protected or shrouded. The AA body is so long, that in my jeans pocket it is likely to turn on. With the AAA body, the Pacific is shorter, and is less likely to activate. The momentary switch is also prone to flicker, and gets worse over time. I suspect the buildup of tarnish on the brass contact is partially to blame.
I am hoping that a shrouded momentary switch with gold-plated contacts and lanyard attachment may someday be available. Oh, and shorter too!
