Sold/Expired [SOLD] - McGizmo Haiku, one-off

Friends I am offering for sale today a one of a kind haiku.
This haiku (body) survived a wildfire that smoldered for three days. As such, It has a 'natural anodizing' of unknown components. This anodizing has held up solidly over the last 5 and a half years. It is not the most beautiful anodizing job, but it is certainly the most unique.
Don graciously restored the innards. It stands as a testament to the robust nature of Don's craftsmanship of this light.

I am hestitant to part with this light, but life is calling me in new directions and there is some letting go that I am doing around this chapter of life.

Ashes Haiku- $505 shipped priority, in the US.




Some detail and context for the light can me found In this thread-

Re: WTS- McGizmo Haiku, one-off

I remember reading the original post about this light. It's a very cool torch with alot of history. I called it the Phoenix haiku being that it was reborn from the ashes. Glws

Re: WTS- McGizmo Haiku, one-off

Very true. I read about the story. Very cool. (Or hot?!)

Re: WTS- McGizmo Haiku, one-off

Wish I had seen this earlier.

Congratulations, YummyBacon! What a great light.

Re: WTS- McGizmo Haiku, one-off

I just received this wonderful light & was not prepared to see how nice it is person. After all
the light has been through, I was expecting lots of dings & other marks but thats not the case
and the finish is beautiful and full of character. Add to this, a pleasant buying experience and
you've got one happy buyer. Thanks Jemab!

Wow. Never thought I would see this appear.

I always wanted this light, from back when the fire first happened. There were some more excellent pics from right after it happened and I know it will be in good hands, even if they are covered with grease.

No greasy hands here
I have not used it much as I prefer a warmer tint
but Tana is building me a few H17F pills I can
quickly swap in. The light has been through much
& deserves to be used.

I'm all for warmer tints too.

Been thinking on either a HIVE or Tana engine for my Haiku and I hope you post up a short review of how you like the levels and UI especially.
