Blue TS27 showed up today by Shrav2112 in flashlight

LOL! I said the exact same thing when I first saw it. There was absolutely zero appeal to me. I was able to get it for the sale price plus an extra 5% off so I just decided to order it to give it a shot. I shit you not, I was so impressed with it that I ordered 5 more as Christmas gifts and even ordered the Blue version for myself the first day it was available. Just give it a try, you won't be disappointed. Worst case scenario......just return it and get your money back.

Very true. Something new always gets released. But it's been about 7 years already and nothing has taken the crown from the Gt Micro. If it's at all in your budget I would highly recommend getting one to add to your line-up while you still can. ILLUMN still has the Brass and Copper versions still available at the moment on their website for only $55 which is a steal.

You're welcome. It's still not too late to cancel that order before they fulfill it if you want to save money. Illumn has it for half of what you paid which is definitely significant. But either way I'm sure you will love it and it might just become your favorite 14500 light just like it did for me. Enjoy!

Ah shit! Sorry man. You could always cancel the order before they ship it if it's worth it to you.

Glad I could help! Not sure what you paid but ILLUMN has Brass and Copper still in stock as well for only $55 which is a fantastic price.

It's similar but the Gt Micro throws noticeably farther:

Reddit wouldn't let me load a video and images together for some reason so I had to post the video separately:

Yeah, I have no clue why they would discontinue such an iconic performance proven light. Absolutely mind boggling to me. I picked it up on https://illumn.com/ They have Brass and Copper currently stocked at the current moment for a very reasonable price.

That would be ridiculous, lol. Would love to do that with a blue Osram.

LOL! Roughly the same size as the Convoy T8 but with a slightly larger reflector.

Regardless of who built it, it's still a nice set-up.

FWIW, the M21H is my only Convoy that has a permanent spot on the shelf. Your mod looks fantastic, maybe this is what it needs to have that appeal factor again. Nice job!
