I am going to do a small run of 25pcs SF-III's in HA III black as I have enough parts left over from the last SF-III run. I need to take a poll to see which version I should make, the standard body or with the Combat Grip. Only one type will be made on this run and only 25 of them.
In the earlier run, I had to make additional DC/DC converters, micro processor boards, mineral glass lenses, o-rings, reflectors, LED's, tail cap switches and boots. The only parts I am missing are the bodies. This run will not take as long as the original run. I've already spoke with my machinist and upon sending payment, I was told the lead time would be 4 to 6 weeks. So to be on the safe side, I am going to say 8 to 10 weeks for delivery to include my inspection, assembly, test and shipping time.
Ever since titanium bezels were made in the earlier run, I've been asked by several members on the earlier list as well as members who completely missed out, to do a run with a titanium bezel included. These 25pcs will be the last of the SF-III series I will ever make. The name of the light will be milled into the bezel instead of the usual laser engraving and will be marked with "LE" as these will be a 'Limited Edition' run. Or rather then the bezel milling, there may be a flat section milled on the body with the milling of the name and serial number there instead, similar to the Mega Extreme II's and Mega Micros. Also, the milling writing may be inlayed in gold. Now picture that… Gold on Black!
I would like to ask that payment be pre-paid. If the deadline of 10 weeks is not met, I will issue a full refund. The pre-paid price will be $550.00 USD. After the prepay deadline (unknown at this time) the price will go up to $615.00. Prepays will be accepted now until further notice. If a refund is issued at the prepay price and later you decide you want one, the higher price will be the cost. I will fund this project 100% if need be yet the ones who prepay will get one at a lower cost. Price includes PayPal fees and Express Mail shipping.
Specs will be the same as the last run except these will be in HA Black with a Titanium Scalloped Bezel. Link to the original SF III sales thread… http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=226279
Send your pre-payment of $550.00 USD to arcmania (at) hotmail (dot) com. PLEASE, PLEASE include your CPF name along with the information as to what you are paying for.
Here are some pictures of what it will look like. Though keep in mind that this new run will be in HA black.
If the Combat Grip body is chosen, the flat milling on the body may or may not be done due to the center bulge on the body. (I myself, 'qarawol', would not mind it at all)
Njoy...
