Well, better late to the party than never -- I hear from quite a few sources that our Lady Of Light needs some noo red shooze, and since the latest auction has ended I would now like to offer the very first CNC'd VIP prototype for auction, with All Proceeds going towards the RSC (Red Shoe Cause).
This is whatcha get:
What makes this particular VIP distinct is that the dimmer switch is wired a little differently - center is Low (where it is now in the pic), a click right of that is Medium, and a click left of it sets the output to High. This was never intentional, but I am not ashamed to admit that being it was only the second VIP yours truly ever built I got a little cornfused just on this one aspect of the dimmer switch wiring.
Nonetheless this will be the Only one like that on the planet, and with the included Fraen optic head from one meter away it makes 1200 Lux on High, 700 Lux on Medium, and a hair over 30 Lux on Low. Of course all these output readings will change (surging upwards into the multiple thousands of Lux) if we ever get those dang BBH heads made (are you reading this, Otok?)... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
And it goes without saying that the winner of this auction will get first dibbs on the first non-anodized BBH produced, to match this light's finish perfectly:
Shall we make it midnight of Monday night (on the West Coast) as the time to end it all? Sounds good by me.
Again, All Proceeds go to our beloved CPF's one and only Sasha to do with as she pleases, even if it is indeed to buy Imelda-cessories, so please bid early and often...
