Yes, anything is allowed, as long as the Nucleus is on the photo as well.

As I mentioned in the sales post, the Ti is great.
Brass - yes; an anodized version (green or deep blue) one would be nice too...
I'll put a list together, and message everyone, when they are available. It should be about 6-8 weeks...
Please put me down for a copper version as well
Please keep me posted on the copper as well. Thanks!
My QTC pills came in the mail today and I tried one out on the Nucleus. It works really well to adjust the levels, but it's too thick and the tail doesn't screw in enough to be secured by the o-ring. Neat concept though - I'm gonna think on how to get it to work.
That was such a great idea Sean. Think it would work if George modified his design a bit? Such a simple idea to greatly enhance the lights versatility. I wonder if the how the tiny threads would hold up...
George - you've got some great creative ideas. I'm excited to see the designs you come up with.
I have some good news for the ones wanting to use QTC. After playing around with the 1mm x 4mm QTC , I managed to cut it in half (actually less than half, making it to be about 0.013 thick instead of the original 0.040. This way it fits on top of the battery, with the o-ring still engaged, even when the light is off. After t this modofication the QTC is a bit more sensitive to pressure, which for me seems to be on the plus side, as you need less force to control brightness. With the decreased thickness the brightness adjustment is a little more tricky, and the very low levels are a bit hard to set, but once you set your brightness it stays there...it's manageable , and easy to reach maximum brightness. Also, it's important, to find a way to keep the QTC in the center of the battery, instead of sliding to the side. What you need, is a sharp thin razor blade, and since there are no electronics inside, you just need to try and slice straight. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me here or at my email. It is not a perfect solution, but it's a solution for now, if you wanted to use a QTC
