Why no stainless steal lights?

[hook63]

I only have one but it's a lot smoother then the ti lights I own. I wouldn't think weight would be an issue for single cell lights.

I have a stainless steel Revo on my keys and I love it. I also have a PO-SS that weights next to nothing that I carry on a chain with my neck knife.

Check out Peak, they have versions of many of their lights in SS.

Stainless doesn't bind and gall like titanium, but it's heavy; on anything other than a keychain light, you'll certainly notice it.

Stainless is also very bad at conducting heat. That's a real problem with modern, highly-driven LED lights.

there are plenty if you look
for starters there is the c3 cree
aurora make 3 or 4
thats just the cheapies
I'm sure there are quite a few custom makers that use ss

I would trade my ti+ for a SS+

If there were steal lights, I'd steal them all and you'd have none.
Plus I'd be in jail.
Screw that.

JETBeam E3S & E3P are also nice torches....

Solar Force had some stainless steel P60 hosts, as well (limited editions, I think).

There are plenty of SS lights but they are not always promoted

The finish is nice and the material is cheap. The weight is big turn off for me. I have the Solarforce L2 stainless steel lights amongst other SS and they really do weigh a ton. A big turn off when your jacket starts to sag... under the weight. It also smears easily...

Jetbeam E3S in SS modded with an XM-L. Still one of my favorites and I don't mind the extra weight.

I really don't understand why you asked this question.

Check this Google Search there are numerous SS lights available.

I have many lights I consider a steal....


Really though, I believe I own 7 SS lights at this time. They're out there.

Me neither, have a Peak ElCapitan and Rainier SS in my pockets as I type. And without listing, I know there are quite a few others. Regardless on how they conduct heat, or weigh, they're some of my favorite lights.

[cerealkiller]

there is always the fenix ld01 ss edition i crave for...though i ended up getting E05 instead still very tempting to get the ld01 ss

If SW ti+ would have been made out of SS it would be a better light and cheaper.

I've got a stainless Ultrafire 503B. One of the few stainless P60 hosts. I can tell you it's very nice, but also very very heavy. Hardly pocketable because of the weight. But it is niiice.
