A small 123/LS light (Long/pics)

Candle Power Flashlight Forum

Help Support CPF:

Hmmmmm ... We should ask for an additional review of the S123LS from you, David. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

(Now, just so I can at least say I tried, I open this at $50. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif )

Next!
 
NOTE: In my review, I stated that this light is heavier than the ARC LS with the twistie tail which is already lighter than the clickie switch.

I finally weighed both on the digital scale. Guess what: exact same weight. 1.9 ounces each.

The smaller body FEELS heavier (because the weight is distributed over a smaller area) but isn't at all.

Just thought I'd update it.

GREAT GREAT light!

I see your $50.00 bid on the S123LS and raise you $5.00 for $55.00.

Well, you started it! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
 
Being the greedy sort, I'll raise you guys $ and go $60. (Just kidding in that this one should go nicely into the three figure zone.)

I wouldn't have been surprised if an opening bid of $200 had been topped almost immediately, Icebreak. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

I know there is no way for me to honestly win the bidding I expect to see for this light, so I had to get my bid in early while I still could, even if it was before the auction. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif Now I can just sit back and watch.

I wonder what the real opening will be?

David, they're ready! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/popcorn.gif

I won't put it up for bid until sometime next week. All should have a chance. And we have members who post only on the weekend or weekday.
 
Oh my.....I have not been here for awhile.....but I am one loaded down with lights...but this is the Light that I really want....

The perfect KeyChain light....

This is a must have....

I think the KeyChain light should be simple....

Only thing I think is wrong with it, is that the attachment point should be more centered.

Great Job
 
I'm planning on doing this Thursday night. CPF only.

Sorry for not posting pics. My camera is good to go. But I can't get my USB drivers for my new motherboard to load properly.
 
Now that I've finished my Titanium flashlight I think I'm going to HAVE to do one of these. My 3x393 mini looks lonesome on my keyring and is begging for a brass 123 to snuggle up to.

As far as raffle goes I don't think I can do that. Gaming laws and such. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Raffle could be more friendly to CPF members. But auction is the simplist way to go right now. In my opinion.

THIS Answers my question, before I even answer it!

Well, I think this light is just awesome, but I am not going to pay a house note for the light.

I would love to see a lottery, but I understand your reasonings.

Hey, churches and little leauges and others do lotteries and raffles.
 
I am wondering if this light will be manufactured...I see some have shown interest in producing it. I for one would love to see it become a reality
 
I will be producing this light this summer. I am working on getting the machining done. I will be posting here in the Mods forum when the details are nailed down, which should be in a couple of weeks. If it turns out to be well received, I may very well make it a regular offering... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 
Doug, will you also do the CR2 version? I'd have a hard time choosing between them but would probably go for the smaller one, even at reduced brightness.
 
Not being a major manufacturer (maybe someday), I only have the resources to do one major item at a time. The manufacture of an entire light (even this small) counts as a major item for me at this stage. I have a couple of other projects on the go at this time, so my time is filling up...
 
take your time, Doug. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif (but hurry up) /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon15.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
 
Doug, if you've already decided to make the 123 then that's great and I'll be interested in buying one. However, if that's not a firm decision and you can only do one light, then I'll "vote" for the CR2 (unless of course Elektrolumens makes that one), just on the idea that it's an even more unique light and can't really be substituted by an Arc LS.
 
Hee hee. Here's Larry's "family picture" from the other thread, by the way. I love this shot.
