Whatever happened to CT Zero?

CT Zero Lights

I found this link today. I have one of the D sized rechargeable and the 2/3 C sized. I remember the guy selling them here years ago was quite enthusiastic about them and the prices were very cheap as I recall.

Common Phillips 6V lamps similar to the Princeton Tec 40 lamp. Rugged aluminum construction and a rugged metal mount internally for the lamp. With an Aluminum reflector and glass lens these would be great hot rod mod candidates or just plain good units as is. At least my two have been good around the house GP units.

Anyone else out there still have one or know of a retail outlet that sells them?

I have one of those. It was like a budget version of a Magcharger.

Not sure what happened to the company; they disappeared. Weren't the lights made somewhere in So. America?

Maybe M@g tried to sue them? Really though.. I don't know.

The website I linked to above was in Hong Kong. They did patent the design of the light as an identifiable shape. That would keep knock off artists at bay for a few years. I am not certain if the factory still makes all the products on the website or moved on due to lack of distributors.

The other line of lights has a shape reminiscent of an antique Bakelite safety light I picked up at a flea market. It had the wire over the lamp to hold it in place.
