Rush_Fan: It would appear so, though I like the plastic cases, the brown case is a nice touch to compliment the copper.
realista: There is a certain beauty to copper and even its derivative brasses that I rather enjoy, over the small weight gain. If it weren't for the expense I would probably have more copper lights.
ven: Thanks sir! I apologize for making you spend money, though that seems to be a common issue around here with all the shared enthusiasm.
Thanks Jon! Curious to see if I just received a Tool with new guts and an old batch body, since the dimensions should all be identical.
That is a hilarious typo on the Worm head, hopefully it was just a bad setup of the etching and someone rectifies it.
The tint of the Tool vs the D25A Ti appears to my eye to be warmer in use and the side by side, though not by much. Could be my brain tricking me with the different hotspots though. Anyway, left to right Maratac AAA Brass, 2015 D25A Ti Nichia, Copper Tool Nichia.
In the photo I can't discern any difference between them, though the PWM of the Brass Maratac can be seen. Interestingly there is a high frequency noise that can be seen in the D25A, which only appears in the middle mode of Group 1 whether Moon is enabled or not. Low and Moon do not display this and Eagletac claims that the driver is current controlled.

Great post! Happy Xmas!
Great details. One update, no dimple on my new Maratac Rev3.5 knurling.
Your Tool has the old style dimples I think. In your pic above they look the same as the other presumably pre3.5 Maratac. Excellent detail in your pics too btw, nicely done!
Maratac Rev3 with the extremely rare N219 Wrom head, LOL, on left, Rev3.5 on right
> The particular LED appears to be a little warmer than my D25A's 5000k Nichia
try a side by side beamshots on a piece of printer paper folded at 90 degrees
I think the Wrom N219 is a really nice addition to my selection , it makes me smile.
Enjoy your shiny new copper high CRI clickie, while it lasts (the shine I mean.. ;-))
