That looks great! Does it feel noticeably heavier than the alu TS10, when in pocket?
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.
Sounds great! My silver color TS10 is just a few days old, and wasn't aware of the copper one. Seriously thinking of getting one with 3000K haha.
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.
By copper is always changing, do you mean the patina that develops?
Ordered a Sofirn HS10 because I didn't have an angled light and a warm light. It's still in China customs lol.
I'm practically stopping myself from ordering the copper TS10 right now. The orange aux sounds good with the copper?
yes, it gets that patina over time and dings and scratches just add character, but you can always "reset" and get it back to shiny if you want. (I usually just take a little ketchup and a cloth and wipe it and it will look almost like new)
orange is my fave aux color. all my TS10 have orange aux. I had red but red is dimmer, so I sold it. go for it :)
Patina is dope, plus I agree, scratches and dings on EDC gear do add character. Non-hobbyists probably won't understand (especially collectors who just keep stuff in boxes). Thanks for the ketchup tip. Great to know we can make it "mainstream nice" again.
Alright, orange aux it is! My silver TS10 has red, BTW. Thanks zzap!
