BRASS / COPPER E to C (E2C) adapter *** SHIPPING ***

[fyrstormer]

What bezel is that, weklund?

[Mike Docherty]

Are you planning to run another batch of E to C adaptive?
I have every color and material except brass, which is what I need for my next project.

Anyone have any pics of the copper variant in use on a host? I'm having trouble visualizing it.

[fyrstormer]

Why yes, yes I do.







This one was blackened using brass blackener, then scuffed lightly with Scotch-Brite to re-expose the bare copper in places likely to be rubbed anyway. Then the exposed copper was allowed to re-weather naturally. An untreated one would be brighter, to start with. I used brass blackener because I wanted to make sure I didn't end up with tarnish only on the outer surfaces while the grooves remained bright and shiny.

I still have two brass ones in stock. CLICK HERE to find them on the store.

Speaking of which, do you plan to make another batch of the natural-anodized aluminum adaptors? I could use one of those.

[TnC_Products]

I didn't know I was out of those. I believe I might have one for you. I will check to see. I will also make another batch of those as I am out of stock on both black and Natural.

[Mike Docherty]

Thanks. I ordered one of the brass ones. PP sent.

I have a photo of an unblackened copper adaptor on a Vital Gear FB3 HA with an HA Cryos bezel. It looks really good, but I don't know to post pics here. If anyone is interested, I can email the photo.

...or...

Just for the heck of it, I put together some spare parts and took a picture of my own.



This is a brand new Copper E2C put together with a de-branded Fireworm F1 bezel. It's not a fancy-looking bezel, but it does have the advantage of fitting Surefire light filters.

[tobrien]

so if i buy an E2C adapter from you, i should be able to use a Z44 SF bezel and a P60 drop-in and not having any connectivity issues with the spring making contact from the driver?

[fyrstormer]

I have had no connectivity issues, both with dropins that have negative contact springs and dropins that don't have negative contact springs.

I suppose with a hard-anodized E2C, you'll need a negative contact spring because the adaptor won't conduct electricity.

thanks man

i'm leaning towards copper... but it's a natural HA PEU pineapple body, so perhaps copper wouldn't look as good as brass?

[fyrstormer]

Hmm. Not sure, honestly. If the anodize is a noticeable olive-green color, brass would probably look pretty good. Copper might too, if you were willing to let it sit outside for a year and grow a thick green oxide layer. Alternately, TnC sold their stock of hard-anodized E2Cs to Oveready, so you could get one of those and keep the light a single color.

ah i shouldn't have said natural. it's the E series pineapple from illumination supply. it's kinda silvery

[fyrstormer]

I honestly can't say without pictures. You could always buy one of each and sell the ones you don't like.
