Maybe I misunderstood, but I it doesn't appear to me that Curt is saying he doesn't want to sell lights to the public, but rather, his lights are designed to be bought and used by those folks who understand the nature high power lights, namely, that they will get hot with extended use at high power, and therefore should be kept out of the hands of children, and those adults who may not understand how to safely use them.
At a time when large companies are gobbling each other up right and left, and dumbing down their products so as to reach the largest market segment possible, it's refreshing to see a small company like Peak going their own way, creating high quality lights for those folks who are capable of appreciating them.
I'll admit, I'm finding it a challenge to select the proper Peak light. The numerous options and lack of comparative beam shots of how the different lights and optics relate to each other makes choosing the correct light an interesting journey, but one I'm willing to undertake, because I like what I've seen of Curt's work so far and hope to own one of his beautiful lights in the near future.
