Luce de Notte -- the orginal sales thread

[PhotonFanatic]

Re: Luce de Notte

Fred, I'm confused (really?) :thinking: about the flat lens on the far right in the picture--???? Whatever, I had wanted to get in on the first run of these but was distracted too long. I'm "in" for one now though! Probably Titanium, which reflector I dunno but, by the time you have a better idea of what you are getting, I'll know what I would like as well. So, again, put me down for one!:twothumbs

Karl,

The flat top tailcap was done at the request of a customer. He wanted to be able to point the Luce at the ceiling and get the brighter output flooding the ceiling. You can get either version, of course.

Re: Luce de Notte

Interested in SS version

 

[Kiessling]

Re: Luce de Notte

And what about a version with only one side emitting light? Meaning all the light goes into the acrylic hemisphere (still usingf a reflector for maximum light extraction) and the back is metal ... maybe with a lanyard hole that still allow for tailstanding?

Bernie,

If that's what you want--that's what you may have.

And then I suppose that you'll ask if it could be made E-can compatible and long enough to hold a CR123 battery, so that you could swap out the Tritium and screw on a separate head, too. :devil:

 

[Kiessling]

Re: Luce de Notte

Cool ! Thanx !!

Nah, no E-can and CR123 thingies this time ... just a night beacon as small , bright and cool as possible.

Thanx again!

Re: Luce de Notte

I get ya Fred!! I definitley want in on this as stated before. Can I let you know if I want flat or domed a little later after I think about it? And like Olaf mentioned bigger like the Ti version except in aluminum cause as we all know size does matter.

:naughty::naughty::naughty: :wow: :naughty::naughty::naughty:
heck yes I'm interested...I don't have that kinda money for an SS/Ti but aluminums looks to be within the budget [hopefully next month]

no price differences between green and blue trits?

Olaf,

Sure that seems possible--might be a few dollars more though.

BTW, the two-tone look is not the result of bead blasting--it is the result of sanding the raised portion of the body with a progression of finer and finer sanding papers--down to 8 microns. It will scuff if it comes in contact with anything metal; however, I can include some of the sanding paper for touch-ups.

Re: Luce de Notte

Fred, I am in for one. Can't decided between SS and Ti, but will do so before you get your supply from B@rt. Dark blue, or medium blue for the Trit please. Kirk

Re: Luce de Notte

Anyone on the fence about these, just get one! :thumbsup: They are so cool to have at night, handy for moving about the house, and Fred's work is top notch! oo:

Very cool idea, I love mine! :wave:

Re: Luce de Notte

Fred,

What is the runtime and does it take rechargeables?

Maybe you should put some of those copper slices in these:naughty:

Lanyard attachment option.

Hi Fred,

that sounds good. That`s my favorite. Please one in this version.

Re: Luce de Notte

I'll take a knurly brass, please.

 

[paulr]

Re: Luce de Notte

Please put me down for a grooved brass one. I went back and forth and the stainless is maybe prettier, but the brass looks more "magical". Almost like something from Hogwarts' .

Re: Luce de Notte

Posted before Fred but, thought it had better be the Titanium.

Re: Luce de Notte

OK, this looks too cool to pass up... So I'll take one. I'd like a setup pretty much like Olaf_S's - bigger diameter, 27 mm reflector, two tone aluminum body, flat topped diffusor. Trit color - surprise me, either one will work. One question though - could you do a grooved brass in the larger diameter? Please post or PM and let me know if that works and what the total cost is either way.
THANKS,
Greg
