    It's been a while since I've posted to this forum. The last HDS light I bought several years ago was a 170 lm High CRI Legacy Executive Clicky in Cerakote Orange. Previously having purchased the 200 lm Legacy Executive Rotary and 120 lm Legacy EDC Clicky. Now happy to report I'm now also the...

    Thanks, Hogo! What if I use the opportunity to upgrade the light's internals? Surely that would cost something. Its a Gen 1 rotary . . . arent the elctronic components different now?

    I haven’t been around in a while, as I’ve been pretty satisfied with my inventory of HDS lights. But recently, my go-to 1st generation executive rotary suffered a fatal accident: it was sent through the wash in the back pocket of my jeans. I suppose one of the gasket seals failed in its...

    Thanks, Hogo! Perhaps I'll just drive down to Going Gear to buy whatever catches my eye. I know they have the tactical Rotary in both HA and brown cerakote in stock. Haven't bought an HDS since I picked up a legacy Rotary during the great famine. People who had prepaid for their lights were...

    Can anyone comment about the current wait time for lights ordered directly from the HDS website? I'm interested in the Executive Rotary 325 and am hoping it is in stock for delivery before the end of the week... Many thanks! broonzbane

    Here's a sampling of Mr. Forbush's Cerakote handiwork from his website: a flashlight coated in safety orange digi-camo. I hope he doesn't mind...free advertising! BADA$$! Pleeeeeeeeeease, Henry?!? 😀 broonzbane

    HDS Systems EDC # 18

    I've had an orange cerakoted High Cri clicky for quite some time. With every day pocket carry, mine only has a few small chips which are virtually imperceptible upon casual inspection. If it were sitting on a table in front of you, you'd think it was brand new. Mind you, I don't have...

    It wasn't my intent, but if it helps, GREAT! I agree that it makes sense. Newcomers to this forum with legitimate questions are often treated like lepers by the CPF 'old-guard' regulars. As if everything THEY post is relevant to EVERYONE . . . get over yourselves. I float in and out of here...

    Not everyone who visits this thread is interested in discussing emitters, reflectors, runtimes, knurling, andodizing, cerakoting, tailstanding, pocket clips, etc. Many people come here to find out what kind of buying experience they can expect before plunking down $270.00 on a flashlight...

    Eeeeeeesh!!! I've been waiting for a clip solution ever since my 'early-adopter' purchase of the first generation rotary. Looks like my hopes are dashed. Sorry . . . not a buyer if this is the offering. I love my rotary but don't carry it because I HATE having a light swimming around in the...

    So what are the odds of Henry releasing Cerakoted versions of the new lights this year? If he plans on it, do you know what colors? Thanks, Hogo! broonzbane Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

    HDS Systems EDC # 16

    So what are the prospects for Cerakoted lights this year? I have one of the orange HCRI clickies from last year (bought in person at Going Gear, just like all my HDS lights), and it is EASILY my favorite HDS light. After a year of steady EDC use (with no major drops/accidents, knock on wood!)...
