How is the V4 Wasp upgrade process creation coming along?

It's stuck behind the v5 dimming issue. Well get current drop in customers fixed up, then restart new drop in sales, then get back to our larger timeline, including 4->5 wasp upgrades.

I can only aspire to owning one of these lights, and have to be content with my lovely Malkoffs.
I haven't read many user experiences with the light here.
As it's such a lovely and expensive thing, do any of you EDC it on a regular basis?
I'm sure I'd be too scared of using it the way I use my EDC that I'd damage it, but it would be a shame not to use it and leave it on a shelf. I'm more of a beat up pickup guy than a Porsche one.
Let us know how these get used in the real world.

I carry mine every day in my coat pocket, shorten the body for summer carry. I actually dropped mine last night pretty hard at the movie theater (watched deadpool, highly recommended, don't take the kids) and it showed no signs of being dropped. They're very rugged and I repeatedly seem to pick the wasp over any other light that I own. You just missed a drop of a few, keep your eyes peeled and you'll end up with one.

My V4 Moddoolar(s) I've taken to China & used in industrial sites (pulp & paper). Haven't been to China since getting my Wasp.

If I don't use my lights I sell them. My McGizmo's have been used in industrial sites as well as TNC's etc....

My Wasp in the wild, I normally run a TL100 at work.

I know you have been releasing these as full lights but is there any plans on releasing just the heads any time soon? I want to run one of these on an M600 scout body on my SCAR. Thanks!

Were committed to releasing loan heads with full releases, but there just aren't enough fore such a tiny release. But the next full release certainly.

This however, will require burning more boards and cutting more heads. Which are waiting for board production to resume and for our favorite machinist to settle into his new digs. These kinds of things tend to take months, not weeks :|
