FS or possibly Trade, Instant Peak Flashlight Collection
on: May 04, 2011, 02:44:02 PM
Time to thin the herd a bit…

I wanted to post these on here first, before listing them on CPF, in case anyone is interested in them.

For now, I would like to sell these all together as a package.  Here is what I’ve got:

1)   Matterhorn Ultra-Power with Snow-29 LED, HAIII, Pocket Body.  I carried the light for a few weeks, but I honestly can’t see any wear marks on it.  There is a small spot of missing anodization on the tail end, but I believe this is a byproduct of the way Peak anodizes the pocket bodies. Conservatively rate condition at 95%.  No box or packaging.

The light is a bit brighter than a Fenix E01, but much whiter.  Very nice tint for a 5mm LED.  The spill area has a few rings, but nothing too bad, IMO.

2)   Eiger #8 Medium, HAIII, Pocket Body.  I carried the light for a few months, and there is the slightest hint of wear on some of the sharper corners on the head, nothing major or distracting.  This may have even been there when I got it.  There is a small spot of missing anodization on the tail end, but I believe this is a byproduct of the way Peak anodizes the pocket bodies. Conservatively rate condition at 90%. No box or packaging.

This thing is a true pocket rocket with one of the nicest AAA beams I’ve seen.


3)   El-Capitan #8 Narrow, HAIII, Keychain Body with optional Momentary Switch included.  I just got this light and it is still NIP, I have only had it out to test functionality and have installed and removed the momentary switch to test also.  Condition is 100%.

This light is a nice size for a AA, twist action is easy one-handed.  Knurling is grippy, but doesn’t seem too rough as to wear out your pockets.  Beam is nice.  I would describe it as more of a medium than narrow, at least in terms of spill, but with a nice hot spot.



I’m asking $90USD (PayPal only) for the three which includes USPS priority mail shipping with delivery confirmation in the CONUS.  I’ll also eat any PayPal fees.  I’m ok shipping internationally, but PM me first.  Since international insurance is super expensive it would be at your risk.

I’ll also throw in several QTC pills for you to experiment with as well.  I’ve found them to be very handy in the Eiger.

I’d also be open to working out some sort of a trade for a 1979 Vic Soldier, or a ribbed alox Cadet.

I can post pictures tonight once I get home, if desired.

Thanks!  :salute:

What is the tint like? I do have some interest in the Eiger and El Cap.

I'm in Canada so shipping is quite cheap.

The tint, according to Peak, is cool white.  It doesn't seem too "cool" to me.  I'm not sure how to describe it.  I want to call it neutral, but having never owned a neutral light, I don't know if it is accurate.

I know many people on CPF have said Peaks warm tints are too warm and the cool ones are better.

Not sure if that helps  :think:

Matterhorn is SPF.

Pics added here.  tried to show the small missing ano specks on the tails of the pocket bodies.  Not a big deal, but in the interests of full disclosure...

Sorry for the poor quality.  It is overcast here and the lighting just stinks.

I'm interested in the pair.  Is there anything you're looking for besides the Cadet & Soldier?  Vic-wise, that is.  :D
