    Talking Re: 1000 Lumen Mag Feeler

    I'm definitely in for one!!!! Have been wanting to try an Ostar light, plus it's a Mac creation - can't go wrong. Put me down for a green (lime green, if available). I'll decide on finning/grooving when you let us know what colors are available.
    THANKS,
    Greg

    Hi Mac,

    Im interested and would like to ask if its possible to have the host with custom fin head? And how much will that add into. How does the output of the beam look like with such reflector, more of a flood?
    Thanks.

    Definitely interested.

    Mac, is there any way to have the light initially come on at max brightness, and then have subsequent clicks dial the brightness down? (I ask because I always like my lights to come on at full brightness. I figure that if the light's going to be on "low" for 30 hours, a few more seconds of fiddling with the UI won't make a difference...but if I need instant light, it probably means I need a LOT of light - hence the desire to always have lights start off at full power.).

    - FITP
    Obscenely bright or unbelievably tiny are my weaknesses...

    Sure you can. Take a look at the UI of MaxFlex.

    This light uses the same LED + inner Reflector so the beamshots pretty much identical. Have a look at these unit I can take some of my own.

    The inner reflector looked the same in your pictures. Thanks for confirming its the same.

    That is the thread where I purchased my SF-V

    This light needs to be tri-bored so I cannot pattern the body. However it can be lightly grooved.

    no problem

    lightly grooved checkered-pattern on the knurlings of the body?
    or just lightly grooved single lines across the body?

    will the head be finned and fluted?

    Will you provide the cell holder or do we go direct to FM?
