It's a nice take on using the light to reflect the trit light ala Jeff Hanko's 3D tails. The next obvious step would be to introduce curves onto the polished surfaces to introduce additional distortion of the reflect trit patterns. Even just rounded shallow grooves or flat faceted surfaces would really add to this effect.

A great light has to start somewhere and since you have got a tail built why not make the rest of it.![]()

Very nice collection guys! Thanks for sharing!
ok trit time again... this is Steve Ku's e-switch for both SVM and E series. Light with the dots on the button is a McGizmo Haiku
I made some buttons and milled some shapes...

Fantastic work Mohanjude, they look amazing. You are a tritaholic!
Very nice Mohan!I only wish there were still switches available. Especially if you made some of your buttons available.

Would love a couple of Trits on my edc Mag's...
Now just waiting for my JHanko LF3XT to be made.
My Lights In Detail
My Haiku (now high CRI) and my Tri-EDC first traveled to PrecisionWorks to have slots milled in their gracefull bodies, then they continued their journey to UKMidnite to get a small little bit of color, before they returned to me to get some 6x2mm trits installed in the newly milled (and colored) slots.
Well, I like them, the Haiku is exactly like a wanted it, quite extreme, some will shake their heads I guess, I always dreamed of such a light, between pop-art and circus and shiny switched on or off!
Barry did a perfect work for the slots, they are all exactly where they should be and all exactly he same, can't do better. Matt is a real artist in anodizing, I wonder each time I see one of the lights or clips he did for me how he creates these flashy and dark colors. Normally anodizing is difficult to catch in a picture, I did my pics yesterday evening quite quickly, without a tripod, I don't like that kind of (studio) photography...
Enjoy!
Don't say that the Tri-EDC looks boring, that's just next to the Haiku!![]()

Very nice looking lights Henk!![]()
Here is a list of my lights.
Stunning anodizing Henk_Lu. I can see a theme with these and the TNC lights I saw before.
With the additional trits, you are making these great customs even more unique.![]()

This is a nice piece. Can I get one?
