New phantom Sure Fire coming?

Spence · Oct 23, 2007

I was speaking with an acquaintance in Technical Support at Sure Fire in Fountain Valley, CA. He told me that Sure Fire is introducing a brand new model flashlight this year (shortley). We were in an awkward situation with other company employees around us, so he couldn't provide any other details. I'm going to try to follow-up on this scoop and I'll bring it here. In the meantime, if anyone has more information on this new phantom SF model, I'd sure like to hear about it. I'd even bet there are a few others interested too.

That's what I was thinking.

You can bet that if there is something new on the horizon, Size15s will be the first to get wind of it.

Surefire Phantom? I like the name! :naughty:
(yea I know thats not what you meant but I couldn't resist)

Hmmm so assuming its not the Titan, then I'm moderately interested. Was it implied that it is an LED based light?

But seriously, folks . . . .

Bet they've been reading

Every Single Suggestion on our SureFire 2008 WishList,

and have decided to adopt the one which makes the Most Sense.

:tinfoil: ___ :devil:

This new mystery product certainly can't be the Titan.

Heck, that's even listed in their current CATALOG !

Why would he feel uneasy telling you about THAT !

Gee, hope we don't hafta' wait until SHOT-show 2008.

:popcorn:

Oh, and whatEVER it is, it better have an S-O-S mode !

:nana:

Oh God No!

I'd be happy with a U2-style brightness selector ring light, with a fast strobe mode, 3+ emitters and able to be run off of an 18650.

How about an M8?

4s2p CR123As in a 3+3+3 size holder, with the empty 9th cell space taken up by a soft-start + regulator circuit? Similar body and bezel to M6, just ~1 inch longer?

750 regulated Surefire lumens, anyone?

A headlight would fill a market niche.

Valolammas · Oct 24, 2007

Maybe it will be their first light to use commonly available alkaline D-cells for a really long runtime! And it might have a 2" smooth reflector for good throw and to really wrap it up, they may even give it adjustable focus. But since a D-cell light will be a bit too large for a tail-clicky, it will have a side-mounted one. And it will be an incan for good color rendition, of course.

(Ok, ok, I'll stop trolling and go away. But I'm interested too, of course.)
