Besides cost, why not make flashlights out of titanium?
I know its electrical conductivity is something like 5% of aluminium's but surewith with such a low power device as a flashlight and such a large contact area for conductivity, it would work?
Thermal also, is it really that bad that it won't work? Surely polymer flashlights are much poorer in heat conductivity also than titanium.
Anyway, up very late printing 1000 pages (literally) of color letters and had this idle musing.
Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
