Fujiyama addiction.

[22hornet]

Hello,

A few months ago I bought my first Fujiyama: a SS 3led HP red. Shortly afterwards, I got my second: a SS 1led HP snow.
These lights are really addictive as last night I ordered another two:
a SS 3led HP blue and a Ha 3led HP snow.

Fujiyamas seem quite dim by today's standards, but too much light might also be a handicap at times. My 1led HP snow (white) falls between a Fenix e0 and an ARC AAA CS. Anyhow they work fine and are of extremely high quality, as ARC and Surefire.
When I compare the build quality of a Peak, next to a Streamlight Stylus Pro or an Inova Bolt (other 2AAA lights), there really is little competition. (Peak is like a Lexus and the others are like ... cheap)

I especially like the fact that they can be had in different led colors: red and blue for dark adapted eyes (caution: a red Fujiyama is really dim) and white for EDC.

Kind regards,

Joris

Hornet, your neat Fujiyama photos make me want to grab a Fuji, since it's one of the few Peaks my collection lacks.

Question:
Have you (or has anyone here) tried a Fujiyama (espec. in tough stainless steel) as a sort of Kubotan Keychain device -- as a stealthy/politically-correct/back-up self defense tool?

I'm thinking that perhaps the Fuji's length and slim diameter would make it easy/ergonomic to slip into a waistband... with a few keys dangling on the exposed end on a couple of split rings... kind of like the Kubotan light that Streamlight used to sell (the one that ran on problematic N cells... and flickered and died out).

Comments?

Your thought re Peak Quality = Lexus Quality is right on target. Peaks certainly have top-notch build quality and durability. Maybe that's why we rarely see them for re-sale on the B-S-T threads.

Hello,

Well, it is kinda heavy in SS (though not prohibitively). I guess it is strong enough for it's intended "tasks".

It is not a big light, but for keychain use, the aluminum version might be better suited because of the weight.

Kind regards,

What did you use for the clip?

The clip is standard supplied with the light. The same as with a Matterhorn or a Pacific or Baltic.

Kind regards,
