Re: Will you support my 1st light?
Probably not, but not for the price nor any details shared. I will be emotionally supportive, and I'll support you financially with custom work at every opportunity I have. Reasons being, and idk where I get these expectations, because you have not mentioned such details, but I would expect to see a design that I am not attracted to, which usually include crenellations, PWM-laden driver (which might very well be essential for your target outputs and thermal design) and possibly pineapple knurling. If I'm way wrong, and it is with diamond knurling, and a smooth bezel with fixed focus, a single neutral emitter, and CC constant current and regulated, yet retaining your previous interface, then that would compell me to at least desire it, if not reverse my negative reply enthusiastically to "hells yes." You know you can't please everyone, and my sensitivities are not universal to all flashaholics. I have little doubt your venture will ultimately be successful.
