I did no e-mail yet. someone posted about liking there's and it just dawned on me that they could be outside the US.
I was looking at stat's on QIII's and LB's and saw this one, and really liked it. VDG

I had one myself months ago, now it's gone. Made in China/HK. Very nice product. A bit slippery to handle, besides that it's a good choice. Around US $50.

The word throught the grapevine is that Imago Metrics ( [email protected] will liaison for Vortex with 'special' markets- I guess that's us ;-). I managed to track down a rep at their Maryland office .The news is that VortexVision.us will have them ready to ship September 20th and they will take pre-orders. I also heard that a 3W 2-CR123 the TC-3 is going to be released in the first part of October and that will be competitively priced like the KC-1. Vortex is offering free shipping for pre-orders received before September 20th.
For myself, I've ordered 4 in prep for the Holidays. They're not custom lights but that's OK too.
I hope that helps. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif

ConvertaLux,

Aren't you a part of Imagometrics? I remember seeing your name, Trevor Doyle, related to AtenImago's posts

Really?? How? I only joined recently. Another Trevor Doyle? It's not that uncommon a name- :-( I just found this Vortex thread about 2 days ago anyways.

BTW,it's VERY obvious they made the kc-1 with "modders" in mind.It comes apart easily so you can get to the luxeon.It is a star not an emmiter.

Amazing that a noob was able track down the A.I. liason to VortexVision right there in his home state.

Inherited Carclos. How does one inherit Carclos?

Anyways Aten, could you explain one more time why those links on the AI site don't work. I love that explanation. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yellowlaugh.gif

ya lost me, but,, I would click on "contact" and get a page saying "forbiddin" I don't have permission to access that page. and that is pretty much it.
maybe you could give me a direct addy to Aten. Newbie still trying to learn my way around here. VDG
