SPARK,
They were some shortcuts, that did not worked, that was the M-2 and M-3 was due to the problem with the bulb holder, that since is perfected and You will be surprised.
We shipped You also the M-5, and M-7, that You may give Your oppinion about them also...
The borrofloat lens, culminating, reflector, spare bulbs etc. etc. etc.... The mere points, that I posted will give us advanteges, that will be sought after features and will be standard Spec.: focusing, water proof, etc.!!! In the course to perfect the lights we designed the perfect reflectors to match the high output bulbs as well the Ni-Mh. rechargeable batteries, that packs 4,000 mA. unmatched. the others are still in Ni-Cad field with 1,800 mA. I believe the "EDSEL" had that type of batteries...
The design is constantly perfected and the present production run of 10K is faar better, than the ones we sent You.
The reason some light did not worked it was the problem with the 'bulbholder' that we were buying... of which we do not have control over. The new ones have a ceramic insert to hold the bulb.
Also the new GONCZ ELECTRON BEAM lights is light years ahead, the E-3, delivers focused 600 lumen at 5500 Kelvin for 1 1/2 hour. The E-2 delivers over 150 lumen for 5 1/2 hours. The E-1 the compact, the size of the M-3 with solid state controls, that the constant Voltage is maintained. Is too long to post all advanteges.
Spark, I will make a "bet", that within short time, the menmbers will ask you to carry our line... and we will supply you the lights and is pleasure to answer Your posting!!!
