Sph3e pronounced Sphee, as in H3 Sphere & Wee combined.
The Sphee Titanium is an extended Wee Ti with a Tritium 11mm White Sphere installed.
This has been a long project that I have mostly kept behind closed doors until I had completed Sphee's ready to be able to sell, (Wow there's a 1st)
So after many months of prototyping & refining the machining work I have 3 of these available this week. There will be a maximum of 18 made. Reason being out of titanium this has been a real mission, anybody with an idea of how we made these will understand how long the cycle time & difficulties you have when blending radiuses & area clearing for the raised letters. Not to mention the break through sections with 0.5mm cutters :ohgeez:
Basically I dreamed up the idea & asked if it could be done. Yes was my answer from the MD @ the machine shop we like a challenge. So we set to work together & came up with the Sphee. The sphee's are produced on a 8 axis machine. I could go on all day about the time & work gone into these, so enough from me & I 'll let the photo's do the rest of the talking.

So to part with until Monday this is the most complex light I have made & is also the most expensive. Price per Sphee Ti is £325 with worldwide shipping included.
Anybody interested please send me an email & post in this thread. The 1st 3 can be dispatched next week & the 15 more will follow in the next few weeks.
:thanks:
 
Wow, that is freakin' cool!

Is it possible to buy just the end to go on my current BB Ti Wee? This would actually be the most functional for me so I could choose which end to use...

If possible, please PM me a price and count me in...

Nice one Rob. Another new and unique design. Thanks for the heads up at the meet BTW. Now I get the nagging feeling in the back of my neck until I think (wrongly) that I can afford one.

All power to you and I'm sure these will sell out fast.
 
Sideman, looks to me like the case is all one continuous tube...
 
:thanks: Guys, two Sphee's sold today. One more available for this week.

The sphee's front half is identical to the Wee Ti. The new fine 0.5mm thread pitch would be essential to be compatible. The money saving on not buying the front half would be negligible as the main cost is the Sphee half.
 
Wow Rob, just WOW!! That is wicked cooooooool. That IS beyond coooooooooooooool. :thumbsup: :rock: :wow:
 
All Three I had this week are Sold :thanks:
I hope to have a few more in the next couple of weeks.
Any reservations are welcome. :twothumbs
 
Awww, Geez, now you know the EMack is down with one of those!! :wave:
 
THIS IS WICKED!!!:eek: The raised lettering makes it look industrial, but its still FREAKING AWESOME...:thumbsup:
 
That's one of the best looking lights I've seen in many a year. :thumbsup: Well done Rob and keep up the good work.

No... I cant afford one...! :(:broke::sigh:

On a side note, without their protective Ti tube how tough are the H3 spheres? don't suppose you've got any you could sell separately have you? I'd love to incorporate one into a lanyard.
