huh? new Quark Prism...
4Sevens' Prism
things at 4Sevens are getting weirder and weirder... and for US$20? + US$10 for the filter kit?  sweat.gif

EDIT: my first thought when reading the name was will it output the 7 colours of rainbow...  shocking.gif luckily not! whistling.gif
It does make the quark into a 'zebralight' lol, I'm interested. Deciding factor will be the beamshot now hmm.gif

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
But.. it's our own light tongue.gif haha, if it's a 4.2v light, can put more load and drive a XPE to 120%, the rest will be dependable on the reflector type.
QUOTE(polkiuj @ Oct 30 2009, 10:15 AM)
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
The reflector contributes to the rings too right? I based the price on 44USD tho.. We need to put a figure to expect first. Budget, design, can change when we reach the finalization. If more of us prefer bigger light, 18650x2, CR123x2, we'll be looking at MCE or P7 then. But for our first light, we can put something all of us can afford? See the success of our very first laser engraving flashlight brows.gif

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
Well, just like susuman wanted, 6p compatible tongue.gif

Q3 5A can?

Btw, I'll compile all your feedbacks or whatever been said about our custom light, the later post again to review.

6P compatible is ++++++++ wah,

but from the picture ah, I cannot see it support P60 drop in, may be just the tailcap that is compatible, not the P60 drop in?? (the head seems like a jetbeam , or fenix, which you cannot access it like a P60 drop in.

Yes, I agree. Also if P60 compatible, the price must be comparable to those by Lumens Factory. I am out at the moment.

Hmmm, really liking the prism actually. But if only it fits other lights.
Really irritating sometimes that they can't standardize head dimensions lol. Easy for us buyers but then they're just protecting their interests i guess.
Just might get this and avoid getting a headlamp if it fits some of my lights. But again...not that cheap as an accessory.
Nightstalker demo-ing the nitecore headband the other night made me think its a really cheap buy.

No problem, I'm interested in prism too but can wait for next round. There are still many more releases from 47s.

Well...

I've finally got my Lumapower Vantage HAIII Silver!

Gotta say, the silver finish looks alot better than the pictures. The light feels good to hold, nice knurling feel, not too sharp or too slippery either, its slim and feels solid.
The threads are smooth on both ends, not sure if it's squared, slight bigger gaps in between compared to fenix or quark, and it's also shorter in length.

3 types of O rings, each at one end of the body and another at the front retainer (inside the bezel). Yes, can switch to any compatible reflector and possible mod! The retainer and head appears to be very smooth also, looks as though polished.

OP reflector and seems to have a tighter hotspot compared to a Quark's. Like any famous Cree XRE, noticeable single ring at 1 meter distance, but it's not a bother.

Brought it to GW2U for a sneak preview (to send my TK40 for checking as well). Met Polkiuj again, Rookiedaddy (finally), well and, danny and gwen. Will test out the brightness more later tonite biggrin.gif

The UI is quite interesting and I have to go thru it more later. It seems it has a memory function, remembers the last mode you switched off, still can cycle thru with forward clicky or bezel twist. But if you enable Tactical Lock, you'll have either one output program permanently, until you unlock it and goes back to normal operation. thumbup.gif

Wah, very small, I think I can get 1 . Where is the best place to buy? do look out, and get the best deal haha, may be they have office in HK or China, so shipping will be cheaper and faster?

Found their web site and the contact page (it is indeed china)
http://www.itplight.com/contact.asp

Hehe, it is a nice light to begin with. The advertised 200 lumens (for R2) seems to be quite right (compared with TA21 beam). The tricky part of this light is understanding the UI and you'll get used to it. Just read the instructions yeah biggrin.gif
