ARC AAA discontinued orange

Peter,

When you discontinued some of the other colors, you ended up discounting them. Any chance you might discount the orange ones anytime soon?

Wouldn't be worth it since we only have about 4 left. I figure these will probally go around halloween.

Peter,

How does the orange compare to the white? Specifically, overall brightness and throw?

Also, what version are these? Are they at least HAIII?

I`m not Peter but does this help?



It has a very bright but narrow squarish center spot surrounded by a pretty bright corona. Overall bright bit is narrower than the white. Colour is a reddish orange, kind of a slightly redder "neon nightlight" shade. If it weren`t such a deep colour it`d throw much further than the white ever could.

From what I can tell, mine is Hard Anodized, and is the Version 3 with Chemkote interior. Assuming Arc don`t sell a lot of oranges, the ones they have left could be the same as this one I bought a few months back when all the colours were officially dropped. Along with all the other discontinued colours!

Well, as a devoted Torch Addict and long time fan of these little ones right back to the earliest days and the first prototype, I had to have the complete (visible) spectrum of AAAs didn`t I?!

Thanks Chris.

So you have all the colors? Now I'm orange with envy.

All except IR and UV, hence why I added (visible) up there. Some of them are the old style though, they were being sold off on clearence cheaply after they got discontinued, otherwise I doubt I`d have been able to complete my collection!



Not sure what one is my favorite though. They all have their merits.

I HATE these posts. Just ordered an orange one. Liked the beam shot.
Oh well!!!

Sorry!

Peter, I'll put in another good word for the orange AAA -- it is the very best I've found for getting around in the dark without losing night vision. Only competition is the orange Stylus, and the Arc AAA is better because its long narrow spot beam reaches across a dark room well enough to see clearly, plus enough side-scatter to walk.

From the aging-eyes-have-smaller-pupils side, I'm glad I got one while they were available.

Using mine to crawl at night to the toilet -without losing nightvision -

eh not to wake up, I meant
