I'm interested to see your E2L and L1, especially the head, and how they mount the LED inside. Maybe can get some tips to mod a piece of LED into my e2e.

The seller need to send the Z2 to EG first and then don't know when EG will deliver to Malaysia.... I take this rare opportunity to save on the postage from USA, and adding something else that he sells, NetKidz clicky, g3 florescent yellow body. nod.gif I use the $15 postage.. rclxms.gif

Personal opinion:
The very first light should either be:

i. A pure tactical light in the lines of the TK series, M20 warrior etc - 1*18650 or
ii. A very comfortable EDC - 1*123

- fully moddable. Easy to change pills when newer better LEDS come out.
- good heatsinking, anticipating high output LEDs in the future
- the LED should be optional. Let the LYN flashaholic members choose their LED, reflector etc. But maybe a mix of decent flood + throw will suit general tastes. But i think a lot will prefer a bit more on the throw side haha.

Just covering some basics that I think should be there. But again its personal opinion. smile.gif

Other things such as modes etc I really don't mind anything. Am use to the various modes of my lights and they don't bother me. As long as you don't have strobe before 3 seconds can already lol.

Everyone will definitely choose IPX8.
Colour - black. But again, I don't mind any colour. But betcha it'll be either black or olive drab.  wink.gif
Maybe the option of strobe. Pretty sure non of us will use beacon or SOS. But again, strobe or no strobe is no problem. 
*might be awesome if someone can actually design the outlook of the light itself. Then we vote. The winner gets serial number 1.
Should have a serial number and if everyone is willing, etched with our nicks.
Good suggestion, what the rest thinks?

Just add what I think. If we have different LEDs for different needs, we might end up with different driver, batts and prices. Will that have effect on cost? We have to manage this specifically and inform the supplier or they'll be mistakes in end production. Or should we stick to one LED and tint for now, same driver, but capable of changing reflectors(OP, SMO), and modding. By keeping things simple, we can budget at RM150 per light?

Regarding the body, are we gonna use their existing body for laser engraving or fully designed our own? This area need expertise and I think we should use their custom body? This part unclear.

just a few checkpoint here:

1. list of interested flashaholic
- Strinq
- Susuman
- Pseudoblue
- Old Newspaper
- damonlbs

2. light's configuration / spec /
- we were from pre-discussion now in actual discussion biggrin.gif then proposal and final decision.

3. budget
- < RM150 (please discuss, but lower price and high quality is always prefered)

4. communication and negotiation with Richard, the manufacturer of MrLite or maybe others
- let one person communicate better = Old Newspaper

5. timeframe
- Shall we come out with our final decision by end of next week? I don't have much experience in this area and we could use more feedback.

About RM150...? Hmm I've 1 too many mini flashlights already... Haha. Need to let go of 1 first..

Not too keen on the small ones for now.. I guess I will have to pass... sad.gif

BTW anyone here have a Pelican case? Roughly how much does it cost? Im looking for a size which can fit all of the below

1) G2
2) 6PDL
3) E1B
4) Seraph SP-9 + extender (aka SP-12) + Seraph P7 turbo head = I think its size should be roughly equivalent to a SF M4?
5) SC 1 spares carrier

So anyone here knows how much a Pelican case would cost to fit those??

Would love custom engraving.

150 sounds really low. Hehe.

Any artifact free LED will do.

I'd prefer a nice sleek, simple design but any nice design will do since it's the 1st time. thumbup.gif

Individual nick Engraving is great!!

3 brightness mode with strobe/sos ok, but prefer memory mode (with saving the mode if not on-off for 2 second, like the solarforce L2), so every time your turn on it is like single more torch, but will not save the strobe/SOS mode , then it is perfect.

Designing the body?, hmm, can, but if we cannot come out if the CNC diagram/files for them, maybe we choose a similar body and then as a minor touch up (avoid infringe of copyright/industrial design issue), I like jetbeam body though. tongue.gif

1x123 or 2x123/18650 is ok with me, but if it is Surefire 6P /P60 compatible then it is more fun, you can use surefire (or other compatible maker's) accessories, drop in , tailcaps , wah, then it will be a perfect light, that I wanted!!!

update from Richard, MrLite:

customized body is not possible.....can be done if there's a min order of 200pcs and above.

what we can do is change the output mode, change the led emitter and add printing or engraving...

printing and engraving would be a huge gap in terms of pricing....

current circuit only can support Q5, R2 & MC-E......XPG R5 will need a new circuit which is coming very soon....

and yes, it's 6P compatible ! thumbup.gif
