So this is a bigger announcement than I originally let on. Due to the circumstances I am going to release this a little different than I have in the past. There will be two variants of the Victor released at once. I only have 24 bodies and limited time to release and sell and I figured if I released the regular Victor and then sprung the more powerful version on you as your lights were in route you'd wring my neck. So the two models being released today are the Victor and the Victor Enthusiast. I have managed to get significantly more power out of this platform. Here was my other dilemma. I wasn't sure which light you all would want more. So what I have done is build out a few of both and prepared all the parts that I would need for final assembly of the rest. This way all the lights can be allocated according to your wishes. The built lights show in stock. If it says backordered you are safe to order and it will be built out to your specs shortly. I will shut down the ability to purchase on backorder as soon as I have filled the available 24 spots.
very nice job

This is a hyper light with every aspect taken to the current limits of technology.
