The Luxeon Star Blaster

Final Product Photos

Blaster Description:

The Elektro Lumens 'Blaster' is a newly developed, aluminum flashlight.

High grade 1/8" thick aluminum alloy is used in it's construction.

The parts are machined using precision CNC Lathes.

High quality, tough, grade 3 anodizing, inside and out.

The LED is the Luxeon Star, manufactured by Lumileds, who make the brightest LED's in the world.

This flashlight is the size of a 2 'D' cell flashlight, but uses 3 'C' cell batteries, and a battery holder/spacer.

I have designed it to be water resistant, using o-rings in the head, for the lens, and for the tail cap, and the switch has a rubber seal, similar to other 'D' cell aluminum flashlights.

The texture of the finish has a very fine “grooviness.

You can expect over 12 continuous hours of high brightness, and several days of gradually diminishing but useful brightness. Brightness has been compared to up to well over 20 5mm LED's.

I have had several responses that it had a 'tactile' look and feel. What do you think?

I have a limited quantity of preliminary run prototypes available, for $99.99. Email me if you are interested. Only 25 of these are made, and are serialized, #01 - #25.

Here's a close up of the switch, and slightly shows the grooviness of the surface.
