Re: The Pineapple, a 2x123 E series compatible body.

After I ship all the bezels on monday, my mission in life :D will be making one or two prototypes in aluminium, I will do the lathe turnable shape, and then hand this parts to the cnc shop so they can do the milling.

Sounds like we need someone to resurrect the Aleph A1 & A3 head production line. This project could kick off a whole set of demands for more LE, parts, etc. :poke:

Agreed.
While the SF heads are fine, a body such as this deserves so more IMO. :)

Im doing some sketches, but I wont be able to do a complete flashlight all at once sorry.

I posted this more than a year ago:

I have this team for the whole NEOCA Flashlights family:

CAD Design: One Person
PIC Programming: One Person
Prototyping: One Person
Beta Testing: One Person
Quality Assurance: One Person
Assembly Line: One Person
Management: One Person
Marketing: One Person
Contractor Control: One Person
Sales: One Person
PR: One person

Total in team: One person... :)


That being said, I like to go the safe path, I will make a head and a tailcap [hype mode on] I have a really original idea for a tailcap [hype mode off] but they will start seeing the light after I finish this pineapple body. I hope you all will understand.

Interesting, I have my own plan for this body, so to make this happen as well as being prepared for future design events I may need an extra one?

Please raise my interest from 1 Nat to 2 Nat.

This is so cool that you can put me down for 1 HA3 Natural...and I don't have a single tailcap or head that will fit it, at this time.

Re: The Pineapple, a 2x123 E series compatible body.

Today I spoke with the CNC Shop, we will make a sample on friday or saturday depending on their available time... Im counting seconds :)

This proto wont be a full body we want to test how difficult is making the tapered pineapple.

Looks kind of awkward to me when mated to the smaller heads. It'd be great if it fit a C/P/Z-series bezel. Still looking forward to see the prototypes.
