Who wants some BLING

Chrome is always a good thing, right? I don't anodize my lights yet so no gold, but silver is the next best thing.








Maybe a little over the top, but I am a sucker for a good piece of chrome.

500L

As I have started to make more of these for people I have been playing around with ways to maximize production and incorporate a few design suggestions. But, of course, that always leads to slight variations, so on with the pictures.

Notice the nifty new slots on the bottom. As I said before, I will be adding this to all new lights. I even managed to retro-fit an older one.



I need to get a better shot of this, but I got a new piece of tooling that allows me to easily cut a radius on a corner. Makes for a nice round corner instead of a cutting edge.



I also moved everything back to the back for a couple reasons.
1. I got a complaint on this version about turning it off with a tree branch. oops.
2. It is quicker as far as machining goes.
3. More surface area for cooling.

It has been way too long since an update, but the real job has been getting in the way again...


So I sent my first light out by mail the other day to Oregon. So that was exciting. The initial report was good and the Darkstar was reported as the brightest light on the trail. Yess! I made a slight adjustment at the owners request on this light and think I will incorporate it into all my new designs


Nifty Huh. No more worries about losing it no matter what.

I also recently completed the Bullit as a swap for a SS bike.

I think it turned out well.

I wanted this one to turn out really well and be really reliable as the guy is a fireman, and wanted to use it for both biking and at work

I think I succeeded as he reported back the the beam was great for looking for a dead body in the woods at night.

OK then! Guess we have a winner.

Beamshots from the darkstar.

This is actually from one that has one flood and one spot mounted in it.

High

Low

the low was photoshopped to correct for a crappy camera, high beam is accurate.

Both taken at about 130 feet from the wall. High beam is good well beyond 200 feet.

Thanks to those that received theirs. Let me know what you think about them once you use them.



To cold in the Garage today, and on Daddy duty, so I thought I would update a little. I have been working on a couple of new lights and here is the latest development. I have had a 1000 lumen light before, but there is always room for improvement. both with LED's and design. So I give you DarkStar(how do you do a tounge in cheek smiley?), 1200 + lumens of night luvin

New 500 lumen iteration. I have had this for a while, just haven't been posting. If you ordered a 500 lumen light from me this is what you will be getting(basically). Updates include a top mounted on off switch, center cable routing with IP67 (watertight)sealed connector, and weight reduction.

Sorry been busy with the holidays. as promised the bullit. 650 lumens of sexyness
