Re: Introducing "Draco"

Just in case this turns out to be affordable, make mine in Ti, please. SN's not critical, but I'd like to be on the list.

Re: Introducing "Draco"

dang hard to resist. I'll take 79 in Ti too (price dependant), no turbo.

Any idea about the projected runtime and lumen output?

Re: Introducing "Draco"

I'm very interested, but as other's have said price dependent. I'd like the Lanyard version in Ti, no turbo #59 if available. Will the 6 black bands on the CAD drawing be Knurled and the spaces in between recessed?

Dangit Mag, where is it? Checked the mailbox today but no tiny lights in there!

:laughing:

I really like the styling of that tailcap.

Re: Introducing "Draco"

It will be easier for CroMagnet to update the list if everyone choose a number# I think .

No worries right now anyway. It's not too bad to do at all. If we get up and run-ing I'll transfer the data to an Excel spreadsheet and post a pic update with all the specific details of orders and payments etc.

Re: Introducing "Draco"

I just got couple prototypes parts in today. The most important part ... yes the reflector from master McGizmo :bow: have arrived safely. I didn't expect it to come so soon.

The prototype body has also been completed late today. Just as an FYI it took 5 lathe operations just to make the internal part the way I wanted it. Drill / Drill / Bore / Drill / Special Finish Bore, thank goodness it's repeatable.

Next phase is the converter fit test and exterior plating. This is the part where yours truly have no control over.

Many of you are currently wondering about the price. As I promised before I will try to make this as affordable as possible. However, I will not cut cost to compromise quality. Current estimate it will be cheaper than any semi-production light with similar caliber.

Re: Introducing "Draco"

OK, I'm interested. #149 if I have to express a S/N preference, but I can't really commit.

Re: Introducing "Draco"

OK-put me down for one in aluminum-especially if the AAA extra body becomes offered.

-No S/N preference, might be interested also in the Turbo-head option as well.

Hope this light turns out to be affordable... :p

Re: Introducing "Draco"

Looks like scrappy is down for #91... and/or maybe somebody has already claimed that number?

If these things will be serial numbered and scrappy or whoever else were willing out of the goodness of their hearts, I'd be OVERJOYED to have #91... dating myself here, but that's my class year from college!

Second choice would be #97... wedding anniversary!

Third choice would be #38... father's birth year, very special to me.

Yes, I'm an old milkyspit. :sigh:

Young in spirit though! ;)
