The kit is not yet available. Wayne is waiting on the components. In addition to a McLux head and single 123 power tail, there will also be 2x123 and 3x123 power tails available. These are all in EN plating. Once these parts are here and placed in circulation, the existing McLux program is done. Given the overwhelming acceptance of the McLux, perhaps Hotfoot and his company should look at a next step of refinement of product with intent of legitimate production and offering. Such decisions are up to others.
On an aside, I am concerned that I and others now find ourselves on a thin line these days. The exclusion of non-sponsors from posting on CPF seems to have placed a gray fog around some of the "hobby" commerce here on CPF. Breaking even on some of these programs in terms of hard costs (forget about the time invested) is an ultimate goal. To add an additional monthly cost of $40 as a sponsor for someone like myself doesn't make economic sense; not that anything I've done to date with flashlights makes economic sense. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif This paragraph is off topic yet I felt the need to express my concern that at some point, a question like "Where can I buy McLux + NX-05" may not be answerable by those in a position who know because they may be CPF members with a vested interest in a program, but are not "Sponsors". Funding CPF is one thing and in the past, I have tried to contribute my share. I am concerned that the current rules and framework will either preclude a free flow of information or place folks in a position of unintentionally breaking the rules; at least as the rules may be interpreted by some.
