Just opened a package from going gear with an i3E, and one of each of the i3S-CU's. About to play with them and see what's what. 10440 you say on the "E"....interesting

Was thinking about getting a black one, besides the Green one I received as gift, but then I saw the price here is €20 ($22).. I really wonder why it costs $10 more compared with the US.

Is the silver coated with silver paint or is it raw metal? Aluminum I guess?

It's raw aluminum.

Why is the silver so scarce?

Why is the silver so scarce?

It's super popular, so they can't keep up with demand right now. It will level off before too long. We've gotten a few large shipments of them, so they're cranking them out as fast as they can.

OK, thank you. Also, do you what's different about the silver that it puts out the 30 additional lumens?

 

[mzil]

It puts out more lumens, but at the expense of a shorter run time. The designer traded one for the other.

Also more heat on the host.

It's raw aluminum.

The close up images I've seen look as if it has a glossy coating on it that makes it look very different than my raw aluminum Maratac AAA. For example:

Also according to the video's scale, as opposed to the anodized colored versions, it weighs .1 g more.

edit to add: I guess one test to see if it is coated would be to test if the outer body conducts electricity using the continuity mode of a multi-meter. Anyone?

 

[hmihaylov]

It is PVD coated.

I just got a silver pvd coated i3e 120 lumen model and lot of people asked what is the difference between the two?

i noticed my one has a R39 sense resistor where all the coloured 90 lumen models i have seen pics of have a R50 resistor.

I measure it right on 120 lumens compared to the I3S right on 80 lumens back to back on my light measuring device.

I got a silver one and the dam led has a black spec on it and doesn't work.... Mehhhh

Just got the copper version and it is really nice. My first copper light.

Thanks for posting this pic as i was not sure if the soshines would fit. I bought a 4 pack, great cells - i measure my i3e at 400 lumens when fitted with one of these. They also fit nicely in my 13s and 13s cu xpl.
