Now that the ARC 6 is done and in the past year we have seen many variations of the AAA's. Any new products in development?
 
I'd love to see the Arc6 being "expanded" into a sort of Arc LS / TnC-like Lego system.

Different sleeves (CR123, 18650, 14500, 17670, CR2), additional heads (larger, throwier head, mule type head, long-run/high-efficiency head), different pistons (w/ different plungers), perhaps even a few compact, pistonless (twisty-only) bodies.

I know it's never going to happen, but hey... i can dream :D

PS: A more high-techy, high-output / high-dynamic range AAA light would be nice too! Sorta like a cross between an Arc6 and an Arc-AAA.

I'd say bring back the Arc AA. I'd love a modern update of the Arc AA I currently own.

I highly doubt that will ever happen at this point. People have been asking for a revamped ARC AA for years. I would love one with a Nichia GS with a regulated circuit like the EO.
 
I wonder if Peter will restart producing Arc 6's with K2 LEDs (assuming the K2 is better than the current P4).
 
AFAIK it's not that it's much better as more... robust.
I.e. it's overall efficiency (or rather efficacy) is lower, but it can endure much higher currents and temperatures.
 
I do have an order of TF K2s outstanding. When they come in and if they test well, then we plan on making more Arc6s with them as a standard product.

I would like to come out with some more Arc6 accessories such as packs, mounts, switches, software variations, etc.

I have a bunch of projects on the drawing board but the current economy has delayed things of course. I don't have a definate schedule for anything right now.
