Hello CPF!!
Below is my original thread on these lights offering a little insight into what they are,their purpose and why I enjoy making them.
http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb...s-10MM-led-long-runtime-low-output&highlight=
I currently have 7 lights completed and for sale of varying styles. I am offering all of them at greatly reduced prices as I want them to be out there being used and enjoyed not sitting around . I wont be making any more in the foreseeable future as I just dont have the time to invest at this point . It took weeks just to finish these few. I will list them below numerically with prices which include shipping in CONUS/HI. I will ship international at buyers expense of course. I was able to acquire one more of the special pedestals at great expense and have made one more of these beautiful unique lights. This will most definitley be the absolute last of this style 100% period so there will be only the two in existence.
if you have any questions about size or anything please dont hesitate to ask. all of these lights require 2xaa batteries of any flavor up to 3 volts. All lights have a warm/neutral tint output and output is low (1-3 lumens ) and runtimes are long. Output tapers very gradually as cells are depleted. these are great as nightlights and also look great during daytime. the Colossus style is truly a sight to behold and is quite a statement in copper thats guaranteed to be noticed and evoke conversation .
I have stopped doing a super high polish on these copper lights and have decided to stop the process at 0000 steel wool . I find that the "tarnishing" process is much more subtle,even and attractive this way as opposed to the super high polish which colors unevenly and too quickly. I have been having alot of fun combining finishes on these lights also. I think they look awesome with the high spots and flared points being brighter/polished and the low rounded spots being "tarnished" with that wonderful deep warm coloring
so below are some pics, the best I can do with my pathetic photographic skills . I will number each light and list a price under each one. If you decide to take one please say so here and i will PM you ASAP

sorry for the horrible pics. they really dont do them justice and are a failure at showing the warmth and beauty of the copper.
as a final note. these are handmade lights. each one is unique and different and as with anything handmade perfection is not to be found here
. I strive for certain levels of fit and finish but do not examine these creations under a microscope. I believe the combination of the copper/brass and handmade nature all compliment eachother well.
thank you again for looking and comments suggestions are always welcom
