He is the light!
Hi Enrique,
Was really thinking the additional mode would be set where the Aeon has a gap in its usability which in my opinion is a mode lower than the current low. 0.5-1 lumen. A mode to walk around the house without waking anyone. For edc, I think that would expand the Aeon's usefulness.
Tixx, I think Enrique was talking about how the switch mechanism would work, not what the brightnesses of the modes would be.
Oh boy!

Figured I'd chime in on this thread too. PayPal sent!
Enrique, could you confirm my assumption that the reflector has been redesigned for the new LED?
Thanks,

Hello Everyone,
Just a quick update - next Friday I will be sending off the request for the parts to be machined; at that point I will list how many were made in this batch, I'll put the light on the website, and the cost will rise to $425 plus shipping for general purchases there.
I hope to have a couple of beamshots early next week for you all as well.
Thanks folks!
Enrique
Enrique, can you please clarify: do people who have made down-payments need to finish purchasing the light through the website, and will the price for existing pre-orders increase to $425 as well? Or will that just be for selling the excess from the production run?

If his post were clear to me, I wouldn't have asked for clarification. Quoting his post does not make it clearer.
fyrstormer: Henk_Lu is correct; I did not say that I was altering anything that was written here originally.The extras not initially claimed here on the forums will be sold off of the website for $425, so everyone here gets a decent discount.
Enrique
Okay, thanks Enrique. I suspected you weren't changing the price for existing orders, and the website listing would just be to sell extra units, but the wording was vague to me, so I wanted to make sure I understood correctly.

I have found perfect size replacement SS split rings for the aeon I already own, if anyone wants some for the cost of shipping PM me as I had to buy 50 of them, they are still kicking around from four years ago![]()

Howdy, would still love to know if the reflector is redesigned. Suppose if you post the beamshots, that would answer my q.
EDIT: Wondering as well about the analog driver. Does this mean that the light dims as the battery fades? (better than sudden death in my opinion).
Thx,
eala

As far as I know, the difference between analog and digital in regards to drivers is, digital drivers are controlled via microprocessor, whereas analog drivers are controlled via a simple electrical feedback loop.
If the three-mode Aeon driver will be like the two-mode Aeon driver, it will run in-regulation until the battery can no longer provide the necessary wattage, and then it will drop out of regulation and start to dim. I usually change my batteries when I can no longer see the difference between the low mode and the high mode.
The driver in the Nautilus, on the other hand, has a moonlight mode it will change to when the battery can no longer sustain high mode in-regulation, which produces the odd effect of "turning up" the light only to get less light. The Aeon's driver makes more sense in that regard.
for one.
I will take one. PP to be sent.
