Available on Massdrop: ReyLight Pineapple Brass 14500/AA Flashlight, Nichia 219C

Dec-22

At first, I thought the not good beam is due to the brass reflection. Then the same thing happened on the Ti proto.
Realized something and I asked the factory to dispose the old reflectors, and make some new ones. Below is a picture, it looks perfect now, no ringy at all,and a little bit more throw.

I will provide some,if you'd like to replace the old one. no charge and free shipping. You might send me 1.5$ extra for a tracking number.

Thanks for the nice reviews by DB Custom and Gunga.

The proto clip was made by hand,it is not thick and strong enough, already made a molding, fixed now.


We might give up on the other Damascus design, and go for Titanium. Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Oh boy this is going to be good! Now that I'm happy with both Ti and Copper tools, this will be interesting!

Re: EOI: ReyLight Damascus AA

I'm interested, more so in the Mokume. Would be nice if it supports both NiMH and li-ion, meaning the li-ion would be brighter than NiMH.

I don't think there's any programmable drivers available to support these battery types, but one could hope!

Interesting...admittedly harder to form a name without a hint at physical design or even confirmation of Damascus/mokume type. All we have are variations of those words :). Damlight?

Re: EOI: ReyLight Damascus AA

This might be a silly question but....

It seems that you're taking a piece of solid steel and making a flashlight "from scratch"?
Am I reading this right?
If so, WOW! :eek:oo: Impressive!

Sounds very interesting - as stated by gunga, driver is important.
IMO would be great to have a low low (say, .5 lm); a trit or three as well, and good quality clip.
Name... hmmm - will get back to this...

Re: EOI: ReyLight Damascus AA

If the driver is good, I will want a few extra drivers. In fact, I'd love to help with the driver development.

There will be two designs, one in brass, the other in Damascus.
