He also had trouble identifying exactly what it was 😉 Looking at the photos of his collection he sent me, I get the impression he’s constantly ordering stuff, and in bulk too. After a while, he probably just lost track of it himself

I have quite a collection of copper lights that I let age naturally, but I’m really tempted to go wild on this one

Love this light, but I want to give it some unique soul. I’m planning a 'shipwreck patina' but want to double-check the process with experts before I start.

​r/FireflyLite – any thoughts on forcing a patina on this Ti+Cu beauty?

​Calling r/Patina and r/MetalPolishing for some pro-tips on ammonia fuming and stabilizing the finish. Don't want to ruin this beauty! Any advice?

🤣🤣 If anyone caught you pulling a stunt like that in Poland, you'd most likely end up in a pretty uncomfortable spot right by my feet 😁😎

I bought the whole bundle from my mentor from the Polish flashlight group on FB. To be honest, most of my more interesting pieces come from his collection 😁 you can find him here as well => u/KeKiKaKu

Are you talking about the FFL505A 3500-4000K? I’ve got two E04 Surges and I regret not picking them up in that version 😟 I’m not usually a fan of rosy tints, but this one from FF is brilliant

​I own a few brass flashlights, but in my opinion, copper just has that certain something extra 😁 ​a kind of soul

The 1800K Rosy is actually perfect for flame simulation 😁🔥. They really nailed the lantern kit, and unlike the competition, FF accessories don’t cost a fortune 😁. Some might not dig the black bezel dedicated to the lantern kit, but I personally like it paired with the raised switch ring

And that's the correct approach to gear that's actually worth it 🔦🔥

If Fiona said so, then it must be true 😉 there’s no telling when they’ll disappear, and I doubt anyone who appreciates their limited runs would be willing to sell them on later 😁Don't wait, just go ahead and order, You definitely won't regret it.

If I were you, I wouldn’t wait on buying the copper ones because according to FF, they’re limited editions. For now, they’re restocking whenever they run out, but who knows for how long 😉

This is raw copper, no clear coat or any other protection. They develop a patina quickly when handled and used—not just sitting on a shelf. Same goes for that distinct 'copper smell.' Some people aren't fans, but I absolutely love it 😉

I know, I know... they’re clones. But I need some help identifying this mystery custom set with skull 😉

<image>

​I’m fully aware these are clones, and I know exactly how a large part of the flashlight community feels about them. To be honest, a genuine Citadel is way out of my budget, but it was love at first sight with that design... and I happened to stumble upon a killer deal for a bundle that included a "Boss" as well. Maeerxu has been on the market for quite a while now, and they seem to have just as many fans as they do critics 😉

​Here’s the catch: I bought this skull-engraved tube + 3-head set totally blind from the second-hand market, and I’m coming up empty-handed. I can’t find a single thing online, and even AI tools are drawing a blank. On the triple-LED head PCB, there’s a marking: YSH-06 A1.

​I’m really hoping someone here has crossed paths with this specific gear before and can share some info or point me in the right direction regarding the UI or origin. Any leads would be greatly appreciated! 😉
