Here's my Tain Hyperlux 3 pcs. with flush knurling. I only can agree with what was posted before.
It's a real masterpiece :twothumbs:party:

But pics say more than words :) :















Thanks to everybody who was involved in this project and a special thanks to Tain for the great communication :thumbsup:

This little beauty showed up for me today. Only one of these were made! Unfortunately, the ride was a bit bumpy and one of the trits was worse for the wear, but the tailcap will be back to Tain for some TLC soon. :)

Stunning lights and pictures, Dave. Wow, that new lens of yours is sharp!
The bead-blasted light is truly a one-of-a-kind for this magnificent series.

It has all been said by all the lucky owners of these beauties but... Wow!!!
These puppies are purrrfection in titanium!
I feel privileged to own two 2 pc. and one 3 pc. combat grip Hyperluxes from heaven.
Thanks to Tain for the AWESOME lead and weekly updates.
And thanks to Chris Ogaz for being a genius flashlight designer ;).

Those light look amazing.
How do the beams of the xm-l and osram smt versions compare? Which one is brighter? Which one throws further (especially with the throwier reflector)? I would love to see some comparison beamshots, also with other lights.

The beams are actually pretty similar but I would say the Ostar has a little more throw. I also like the tint fro the Ostar a little better.
I'll try to get some beam shots done ASAP ;)

Thanks a lot :)The smt is one of the rarest leds. These are basically the only lights that use it. I can't wait for them. I hope you can do some outdoor shots :popcorn:
