Hey friends,
I've finally decided to give up the last of my treasures - the one I held on till the very end. This is one of the legends: the Nickel series of SF lights. For those of you who know, no introduction is needed
I bought this gem twelve years ago on the Marketplace, and I have used it so it does have a few usage marks - it isn't mint, but it is still beautiful. I've refitted it with a TNT SingLED dropin, which casts an immensely broad but gentle cool white LED beam, and it has a click switch installed by removing the original internals and replacing the guts with a clickie. The outer shell is original, because I didn't want to detract from the look of this light. It looks completely stock with modern internals.
The SingLED runs on a single 17670, which is the way I have always powered this light, or will take 2xCR123 according to its specs. No batteries included in order to simplify international shipping.
Light ships by trackable air mail with tracking to US, UK, EU and Australia. Asking $280 by Paypal, (was $750) "I'll take it" in this post (timestamped) followed by Paypal within 24 hours, gets the light. Please take it before I change my mind I have loved this light for a long time, but it is time for it to make someone else happy, and I need the cash so I apologize that
I will throw in a little collectible surprise, a unique piece of SF memorabilia if someone takes it at the asking price.
Last but not least.....current photos of the light! (please click to view)
