    Thanks for the "heads-up". I just ordered the raw titanium XPL High+Amber I've been waiting for. barry

    Has anyone else seen the teaser photo of polished BOSS lights on the torchlab instagram site? Talk about shiny!

    Thanks for your response. After gazing for a while, I'm liking the dark crenelated bezel on the vintage copper BOSS with dark clip. Hopefully, I'll eventually be able to get one with a high output 4000K emitter and amber secondary LED.

    I doubt I could afford it, but I wonder what a BOSS made from Mokume-gane would look like.

    Is there any chance there will be any XPL HIs (preferably with an amber secondary) in the next half of the brass and copper release? After trying the XPL re-dome (4500K), 219c (4000K), and XPL HI (4000K) I'm sold on the XPL HI in the BOSS.

    They are on the Oveready site now. A new Insider was also just sent out and has some really nice photos.

    v5 Triple BOSS Flashlight (Bright Output Small Size)

    I just perused the copper and brass BOSS lights recently posted on the Oveready site. Maybe I'm the only person with this opinion, but I'm not really crazy about the "distressed finishes" that seem to have become the standard. I realize that a tumbled finish helps hide blemishes picked up from...

    I like the look of the crenelated bezel myself. However, I think it needs to be made of the same metal and have the same finish as the rest of the light.

    I get the impression from torchlab that something new is about to be released.

    Enjoy the well-deserved time off. I bet things have been pretty hectic the last several months with all of the releases.

    Would you 'settle' for an unfinished BOSS?

    I assume the light on the left is the original patina finish. Is the light on the right a tumbled finish? Is there much difference in the process?

    Thanks for the tip. Much appreciated.

    v5 Triple BOSS Flashlight (Bright Output Small Size)

    +1. Very nice. I must admit, I'm tempted to polish up my brass BOSS. My wife was actually excited about us getting a brass BOSS. However, she seemed a little disappointed when she saw the finish. (She selected uncoated, polished brass for the hardware in our newly remodeled kitchen.) I wonder...
