Alternative TS10 clip from Wurkkos for 1$. It is great.
That book is by Steward Cowley,1978 Was lucky to find a copy in great condition a while back. It was one of my favourite books when I was a kid.
Here are a couple more pics… https://the-haunted-closet.blogspot.com/2011/09/spacecraft-2000-to-2100-ad-stewart.html?m=1
“[…] illustrated by various sci-fi artists, among them Angus McKie, Bob Layzell, Colin Hay, and Tony Roberts. […]”
“Terran Trade Authority Handbook: Spacecraft 2000 – 2100 AD” - it is full with cool spaceships like this… I love this book.
yes, this is confusing. if you choose “TS10” and “black”, you get the 2-way black clip I have on my light in the picture. I guess “silver” is the original clip, which is too short.
dont worry, the alu one is above excellent as well! I wish the alu version had a 3000k option as well.
I also replaced the stock clip with this one from wurkkos, can recommend that. carries deeper in the pocket and clips better to a hat…

as I said… about the weight of an alu 18650 light… now I took my kitchen scale and checked…
copper TS10 weighs 98gram according to my kitchen scale. my alu FW3A weighs exactly the same! (both with cells)
a Zebra SC64 weighs 88g. Emisar D4 alu with stainless bezel weighs 120g, Alu Convoy T3 with 14500 is 74g - all with cells and clips.
regular TS10 with cell is about 50 gram
but the added weight just feels “nice and dense” in hand, not overly heavy. I dont notice the difference in the pocket. it makes a difference though when I clip it on my hat. my regular TS10 actually replaced my headlamp. I can still do it with the CU version, but I notice the difference.
you should. copper is fun because it is always changing. the 3000k looks great as well. I got mine for less than 30$. Absolutely worth it. I carried a silver one with 4000k and orange aux daily since the day it was released. TS10 is my fave light for sure.
What is that sexy black shiny material? Both Zirconium?
It is heavier. But since it is so small, the extra weight isnt much. I EDCed a stainless AA/14500 for many years. The little extra weight feels just right.
I would say weight is about the same as an alu 18650 light, but nicer to carry because it is so small. Feels great in the hand.
oh fuck. very infuriating. what record was it?
Let’s test this
cool, it works. left one blank line under the pic
I read in an article that he was valued 600 million in 2017. that sum actually suprised me.
no idea and I dont really care, but since you brought it up, I thought share…
yeah, that works! it shows me @feddit.de stuff. thank you!
ok, on https://lemmy.world/c/main@feddit.de (the equivalent to r/de I guess) the sidebar says I should just search for !main@feddit.de in the lemmy searchbar, but nothing shows up. I did a workaround by putting it in the URL.
I dont quite understand how this works. I am now logged in to lemmy and can post, but I cannot post on feddit.de?
Did not know these are available in 2700k. Tempting!
