Thanks for the reply and damn, that is a lot of light for a target price of $65. Very cool and I'm definitely in when they become available.

Thanks cw_mi,

I hope to get close to that target but my current gut-feeling is that it will be an introductory price,
as a big thank you to everyone here, and then I might need to set it more around the $75~$80 for the longer term.


@everyone

I have updated POST #1 with some photos!
Please scroll down to the bottom of the post to see tailstanding and closeup of keyring clip attachments.

anyone staying in Singapore has any idea whether the customs will have any issue with the torpedo box?

guy, that box is designed very nicely. hope it can make it into Singapore. but if it isn't allowed, i still want at least 1 torpedo light without the box

Thanks smarkum and glad you like it.
With a split ring (like the red one) the right size is important but Im happy the design worked as planned.
