Wow, that looks sharp! I really like it. 4 amps! Its a flame thrower too! Are you planning to make a few of these for sale to us fellow family members? If so, I am very interested in helping you dispose of a few!
Keep up the good work!

hi and thank you,

at the moment i produce 7 pieces of them. 4 pieces are allready sold, but i have a problem with the driver, my contact person for the firmware is not available at the moment, so i dont know, when i can finish the lights.

4 amps you can only reach with full batteries, after a few seconds it will be around 3Amps or less. But this should be clear with such a small flashlight.

Regards,

Michael

yes, all out of aluminium. But the blue parts are out of another alloy, its AlMgSi1, the colors are more beautiful than the colors auf AlCuMgPb.

no, not at the moment, i ordered the 219BT yet. But you can upgrade later, if you have some 219c. Where can you buy it ?

Some nice work there, keep it up!
It looks like the gray with Blue bezel is darker at the front, and fades slightly lighter before it gets to the body. Was that intentional, because it's really interesting
