New Pocket Flashlight Design, integrated with real teak . By Grain Of Light.

Ankor, by Grain Of Light - A multi-tool flashlight

POST UPDATE:

Ankor is now released on Kickstarter . A Special thanks to everyone who helped shape this flashlight to the product it is today. Candlepower is awesome!

Lookin' good.

When, where and how much?
Will it run off a primary 123?

I like the IP68 rating. Good dust resitance number.
Great for keeing out pocket lint. lol

Neat.

7000K...getting on the blue side...

Thanks for the comment. We are working on a higher CRI true colour option. The 7000K and 4500K (neutral) have different benefits and is based on preference. I will keep you posted!

Is it a good idea with the wood, i mean what about the heat absorbing ? Granted, the light is relatively large and has not that much lumens, so its maybe not a problem. Is this a hard wood? I wouldnt want large dents when i drop it. I like the Cri option. Maybe there is a version without the wood in the future, maybe titanium or carbon fibre instead of the wood.

An XP-L HI V3 1A 6500k would work better for more throw. Brighter hotspot.

Neat light. I like the look. For the future ideas, Something like Birds Eye, Bacote, or Coco to sorta match knife scales would be kinda unique and cool too.
Sadly thought, I just can't get me self past 7K.
Good luck, I will be checking it out on KS.

Same here. If it had been 4500-5000k and a tail clicky, I would have been in, but can't deal with the side switch or that false-white.

7000K is too angry blue for me but 4500K sounds better. Simple no fuss design.

7K=dealbreaker. 4.5-5K please

Currently working on a 4500K option. The reason for no clicky tail is due to a unique tail clip for the flashlight that we will be presenting soon. We will keep you posted and thanks again for the feedback.

Agreed, 4500K has a much better CRI and we can see the benefits for this. We are working on the design for this and will keep you posted. Hopefully we can release the flashlight with both LED options. Thanks !

Thanks for the comment. We are working on a design for the 4500K option. We hope to release with higher and neutral temp colour options. I'll keep you updated.

That's great CS right there. Listen to your potential customers and you'll do well in any business.

They shouldn't steer the ship, but they can offer helpful guidance for sure.

Absolutely! You are the real deal! Stay tuned.

We are working on getting a 4500K option. Also, the wood will remain as teak for the first release, but we will definitely look into offering different species in the future. Infact, the wooden sleeve will be easily replaceable for personalization and preference! The flashlight has been designed for the ability to personalize most parts including the sleeve, bezel and switch ring. Thanks!
