I love all the Hyperluxes, but my Combat Hyperlux with the side-tritiums in the tail is my favourite. Its also probably my favourite light in my entire collection.
You definitely have one of the most complete Hyperlux collection in the face of the earth You are correct, the 3D tail with trits is probably the nicest and rarest of them all (afaik only 3pcs in existence?)
You seems to have 2 version of them, one with another without trits?
I would love to get my hands on one of the earlier 2pc body version of Hyperlux
^ Nice Thud LT with unique pink/reddish glow and orange/red trits. :thumbsup:
That is interesting indeed Franz. I assume the color cast on the body of the light is just due to the lighting that you used, but if there is more to the story, please let us know!It looks anodized bronze as well. Dope.

Shyan: comments like your make me feel so very lucky that I was able to get both a 2pc version, and a 3pc 3D tail version. I was definitely in the right place at the right time. But Daniel does indeed have a Hyperlux collection to be proud of!I would love to get my hands on one of the earlier 2pc body version of Hyperlux

Haha - that's funny. Oh, you were serious? :devil:Dave, its missing a unique BB Combat Hyperlux with side-trit tail. Any time you want to consider a trade or need some funds, just let me know.
Very nice Shyan! These Flutes are addictive, aren't they?My latest addition...

This recent conversation made me want to do some more photography, so just for fun I edited one of my pictures from the first post to darken the background.
I'm interested to hear honest feedback from people. What do you think of this compared to the original picture? Which one do you prefer?
Thanks for the feedback Daniel! I originally made the comment that I thought the black glass would be best for special pictures only. As I take more pictures using it though, I'm beginning to feel as you do. To me, it is nice for any titanium light, and it's especially nice for trit shots. The colors seem to pop more, and it's definitely easier to make them look good during processing when the background is very dark.I think that a black background is hard to beat for Ti and tritiums, so in that sense I do prefer it darker like this compared to your original picture Dave. No doubt amongst professional product photographers, a black background can become a bit of a cliché and they have all sorts of other creative alternatives, but for the likes of me, its the best I can find.
These Flutes are addictive, aren't they?
I'll soon be receiving another one to add to my collection. It might look very similar to your latest addition. :naughty:
That's a great looking pair! :thumbsup:I don't usually show these but these two are my absolute favourite from my permanent collection...
I obviously agree overall. The problem is that I have several other really nice lights - my Mirage Man 18650, my TNC copper 26650, and my Flutes - that are also right up near the top of my list.Thanks Dave...for me it's not that difficult to put my Thud 26650 right at the top, it is that nice a light and tick almost all my boxes! :devil:

I had the exact same reaction! I wonder what causes that?Magnificent lights and picture once again. I'm finding it odd that the ends of the Green tritiums on the Thud appear to me as being blue!
