ICON Modus 1 and Modus 2

Well, in all seriousness I hope that PK doesn't go down that route. Putting aside the specific designs (Rogue/Modus) seen so far, I think/hope that PK isn't much interested in churning out another flashlight that looks like any other flashlight out there. Not with ICON, at least.

I would much rather see some new, fresh designs brought to the table 😱 Even if they're not to my personal tastes, it's still interesting to see something new. The 6P was a great design, but I don't to be stuck with it forever, for example.

If you just want a "normal looking" flashlight, then there are plenty of those already 😀

My thoughts as well.Nice to see something different and unique with a purpose in it's design.
 
After reviewing an Icon Rogue 1 direct from PK, I saw this beauty on their site and was immediately captivated. I personally actually find some good use for their unique runtime curve and this is not coming from a textbook fanboy. It turns on at the same level every time, but carefully preserves it's energy and perceived output.

I wrote to Icon with a couple questions (carefully avoiding asking for a PK autograph) and was promptly ignored. Does anyone know for certain that their contact form functions as intended and their letters made it through?

Me too :ohgeez:

:thinking:
I think PK has been to Maui a little too many times to find the body type of squids as appealing for flashlights

:shrug:

Well... I guess you've got me! 😀

The truth comes out! Welcome...back I guess? With 1,300+ posts, it seems you are no stranger here.

Definitely nice looking lights there, I just wish I could find out more about them. I really doubt my attempted contacts are getting through.

Those that do not like "plastic" lights never heard of Underwater Kinetics....I take them anytime over a new release every month from other manufacturers......
 
I really like the innovation in design of these two lights - can't wait for them to be made available - Is it just me, or does that white plastic look a bit like it should be GITD?? If not - why not?? Even more like squids and cuttlefish!!

I'm really hoping to find out more about the new line. I love lensing rather than reflectors, but I'd like to know what the focus is like. Tight or wide beam? Anyone able to speak up about the divergence angle? PK?

Another thing, it specifically says on the site that they are excellent at heat dissipation, how is that possible with a polymer light? Those are two of the questions I posed to the online contact form that I have yet to hear back from. I really REALLY like the Rogue 1 I got to review. Excellent light overall. I was surprised at how impressed I was with it. I'm hoping the Modus line lives up to my expectations.

PK's background at SureFire has led to the development a variety of design techniques necessary to construct illumination tools fit for specific applications (read where light is used to help achieve certain known objectives aka what defines something as "tactical")
PK uses advanced techniques to design the thermal management of the flashlights he creates.
This understanding of thermal behaviour and the ability to accurately predict thermal performance gives PK the freedom concentrate on designing ergonomics and style into his creations. This is the focus of ICON.
