Had to open the manual on the site to confirm but it looks like it is an 18650 light. In case anyone wants to know.

Of all the random "fire" & "trust" oddball names, I like this one the most!

interesting build, I look forward to checking it out.

WARNING!!
Same here - I got a virus while looking around the web site - fortunately my antivirus caught it.

Note - interesting name for this light 'Dark Tort' considering the virus. Definition of tort: (tôrt) n. Law. Damage, injury, or a wrongful act done willfully, negligently....

Yes it's single 18650 light.
EDIT:'Zefiryn' was faster.:oops:

There will be official announcement on Monday @CPFMP.

PS. In my language 'tort' means 'cake' (birthday-, cream-, wedding-).:naughty:

Looks like an interesting light, but what an odd name for a flashlight or flashlight company. A "tort" is either a "civil wrong" (legal) or a type of pastry. So... "dark wrong" or "dark pastry?" One is inclined to wonder if this is a case of an Asian maker getting an English translation really, really wrong?

Avast detects malware on their site. Could be a false positive, but you never know. Nice looking light anyway.

I am wondering how much light gets lost from that not so shinny reflector. Looks nice, I like the way it can be dissasembled.
