Endeavour
Flashlight Enthusiast
Hey Folks,
For the past several months I've been working on creating a new light to satisfy my own needs, and also to quell the persistent number of individuals who have been in contact with me off and on asking me to make a light of this nature. :nana:
I've largely kept the project quiet up until now and the time has finally arrived where the release is about three weeks away, in early June, and I'd like to share with you all what's to come.
Without further ado, I present to you the Aeon:
(From Left to Right: Nautilus, Aeon, AA Cell, AAA Cell, CR123 Cell)
All the usual features are present – a fully regulated dual-stage converter, parabolic reflector for longer distance illumination, keyring with tailstanding ability, O-Ring seals at all junctions, the best LEDs on the market, and an ultra-small form factor. The Aeon also sports a lens made from sapphire to provide the best possible strength and durability and resistance against scratching.
External aesthetics are similar to that of the CR2 Ion, but the concept behind the light is entirely derived from the Nautilus; that is, a small pocket light that produces a good, well-rounded beam useful for illuminating things at a distance, while providing a long runtime with high brightness – the electronic and mechanical aspects are all a Nautilus in miniaturized form. I'm pleased with the results.
A summary of the light's features:
- Sapphire Lens
- Light Orange Peel Parabolic Reflector for Long Distance Illumination
- R2 Flux WH Color Bin CREE XR-E – 114 Lumens Minimum Output from the LED
- Titanium Construction with Brass Innards
- O-Ring Seals at All Junctions – Water Resistant
- Gold Plated Circuit Contacts
- 18.5mm in Diameter by 55mm Short
- 1.5 Ounces / 43 Grams Weight
- 1:30 Runtime on High Mode, 40 Hour Runtime on Low Mode off a single CR2 Cell (Fully Regulated on both levels)
If you have any questions please don't hesitate to contact me or post here.
Thanks folks!
