Fenix LD01 Stainless Steel Limited Edition

[squaat]

I was just browsing my local (canadian) fenix supplier (as the CAD is really bad against the USD) and stumbled upon this. http://www.fenixtactical.com/fenix-ld01.html

A Stainless Steel LD01!

Uh oh, I think I need this. Though I do wonder about the heat sinking abilities of Stainless steel, but I guess the LD01 will mostly be used in med mode so perhaps heat build is not a problem.

that pic looks suspiciously like the ti l0d ... http://www.fenixlight.com/viewproduct.asp?id=77

Wow, thanks for the tip. I will have to pre-order shortly!

I wonder if Fenix Store will get them too?

That's a Luxeon emitter...:thinking:

That's a Luxeon emitter...:thinking:

yeah, somethings definitely wrong here:shakehead
gunga, I'd hold off on that...being that the LD01 only arrived shortly to the attention of CPF I'd be surprised if fenix comes out with a specialty like this as a forerunner...

I don't recall 4sevens ever hinting LD01 alternatives other than the fact that only black is being made

the Ti light shown is a L0D, not a LD01 and if I remember correctly (please feel free to correct me if I´m wrong) it came out when the L0D was first introduced (wish I had one!).

Pic is the LOD-Ti. I'm guessing they think the SS LD01 will look close enough, they can use the old stock photo. I doubt there are any SS LD01's made yet to take a picture of.

I would expect the SS finish to be a little more shiny, similar to the L1+

Thanks for clearing that up 4sevens, anxiously awaiting more news (pics, pricing, etc.).

I am waiting for Fenix on a decision on the official price before opening up
pre-orders. We don't have permission to announce the product. NEITHER are
there any official pictures. :shrug:

Where should we watch for pre-orders from fenix-store?

We will announce it at the proper time - with all the pictures and details
formally sometime in the near future. They will be available at fenix-store.com
as well as 4sevens.com

Wouldn't SS be rather heavy?

its heavier but in a light that small wouldnt be to much more weight

Well this is just what I have been looking for. The sec you announce it I will pre-order for sure.

 

[Bonky]

The wait is killing me!! :mecry:

 

[regulator]

ooooooooboy. That sounds really tempting. Looking forward to information.

 

[mossyoak]

this should make for one very stout light

Here's my summary of this announcement:

When isn't it time for that!!

That's terrific news. The un-terrific news is that it is a limited edition. Here's hoping there is no lottery nonsense like the ti versions.
