I got my first Ti!

[ianb]

I yesterday got my newest and most bling flashlight yet, thanks to To TITAN1833 releasing it for sale, I was lucky enough to trade my AE light PL-24 + a cash balance to get my hands on a McGizmo Ti

So now I have a Ti XR-19PD its beautiful, I hadn't realised how much I would like Ti, its very tactile, the bare metal, I am now a complete Ti convert, I put a couple of pictures of it in collections, so I won't repeat them here. But mostly thanks to TITAN and McGizmo for making this possible :thumbsup:

Congradulations.
Ti is an amazing material. After a while you may find yourself looking to buy anything you possiply can made in the stuff. Cameras, watches, knives forkes.and of course more flashlights.
Have fun.

CONGRATS, I REALLY want one too.

Congrats! These have been so tempting to me. I used to have Ti PDA case, have a Ti knife, am considering a Ti road bicycle, and am getting a hunger for a Ti McGizmo, maybe a PD-S. We'll see.

A Ti road bike and a Ti McGizmo???

I don't see these as the musings of a casual collector but they seem to me to be the forecasts of a determined and discriminating flashaholic and cyclist.

I can't wait till you get one of each or 2 of 1 and 1 of the other.

Thanks Goatee, but I'm more of a duffer and amateur geek who appreciates daily items of intrinsic artistic value and functional beauty: for example, McGizmo lights, my M-180, early-gen Canondale mountain bikes (never owned one), the single-minded efficiency and design of the Lotus Elise/Exige (maybe I'll buy one when we go public), and the welcome smiles of my family when I walk in the door at the end of a long, long day. And the beauty of a good single malt scotch or port. Not necessarily in that order!

Plus a few good friends, in-person and a few online too.

I too am enjoying my first Ti light! I just wish I could afford to buy more of them. Well, where there's a will there's a way...so I will not tell my wife.

heres the frankenPD's

My prized Al PD from chellyc :thumbsup: :rock:
and my Ti get a mixed up,

The Al head on Ti body works in all modes, but the Ti head on the Al body only when the piston is used :thinking:

So I've started EDCing 2 lights now, I've tried before when I thought as a seasoned flashaholic I should, but never found the right lights.
Now 2 PD's are a whole different kettle of fish :naughty: , overall I prefer the warm tint of the Al PD (possibly V1?) to the cooler white of the XR-19. I use them outdoor a lot and colour rendition is important so the Al stays in my right pocket, when I need flood out comes the XR-19.

[chellyc]

Two now? Most excellent! BTW yes, UV1J.

Chelly

 

[ianb]

yes, 1 - The Al PD, 2 - the Ti XR-19

Too perfect , I thought it was, the one I had before was UV1J and I got to love the tint, before that I was a W0 fan but now I much prefer the warmer tints. Thanks Chelly :thumbsup:
