Ok folks, here is a new challenge for y'all. Carry a copper light as your edc for 30-days straight, and post a picture in this thread each day. I will start the challenge on Wednesday the 19th of this month, and end it on the 19th of next month. Hopefully this will give anyone who wants to order a flashlight enough time to do so and anyone who wants to participate enough time to see this thread. The 19th of next month I leave to drive down to Florida for a cruise so I cant push it any later than that i don't think. Feel free to join me!!! I don't want to be alone in this thread!! :ahhh:
So, the rules are:
-carry the same copper flashlight as your edc light for 30 days straight
-post daily pictures in this thread
-use the copper light as much as humanly possible, but if you keep a bedside or car light for emergencies or need something that your copper light can't get done (like 300 yard stuff for a keychain light) then do what you need to. This challenge should not jeopardize your safety in any way. Just make sure you use your copper light for everything else.
-post comparison photos on day 30 of the patina (if any) that your light acquired during the challenge.
Here is the prize!! A Saddleback Leather copper pen. These things are nice, raw copper and have a cool open/close feature. I liked it so much I ordered two. One for me, and one for the prize. I will do the drawing after the challenge ends, and ship the prize after I get home from the cruise. Good luck everyone!! You must complete the challenge to enter the drawing.

Very cool. :dd: I'll be watching from the side lines. Unless someone wants to treat me to a copper flashlight all pronto like.

*Adds 29 to the list of badges.

I have no copper lights, so I'll just be watching.

Wish I could join but I have no way of posting pictures now. I'll be checking in as much as possible though. :tu:

Sorry to hear that the 3 of y'all cant join. I can't help as far as lack of camera goes but I do know that the Olight I have is only 20 bucks usd on amazon. Pretty inexpensive for a copper light. I assume its something equivalent across the pond if you are interested in joining. If not, hope you enjoy watching! :tu: :cheers:

Wow! What luck!! No smartphone to upload pics either I'm guessing. Heres an idea, if you plan on replacing your computer during the challenge, take a pic on each day and save them in your camera until you have a way to upload them. When you get your computer, post them all labeled with the day and you'll be all caught up!

I have the same light but in silver :cheers: They are a great light for sure and the copper looks awesome :dd:

I may do that but to be honest I have no idea when I will be able to afford a new computer. I can't even afford the basics around the house let alone a new computer. I am wanting to sell some tools and knives but can't provide pictures for the sale thread.

Oh cool, I'll be watching from the sidelines, sorry capt, looks like you have my luck!

Very sorry to hear that cap, I understand you not buying a new computer in that situation! Maybe you can get to a public library or internet cafe somewhere to upload the for-sale pictures from your camera if you need to. I hope things work out well to your benefit!

Here is what I came up with for the badge. What do y'all think? How does the Zoidberg like it? I stole the flashlight shape from your flashlight badge design.

Saying goodbye to my normal EDC and hello to the Olight for 30 days. I didn't realize how spoiled I am by the UltraTac i carry every day. It is so bright, has a button, and has 4 modes. Well, here we go!

I am sure we could show that to Whoey and see if he can come up with the mini badge version of this and tweak it and make sure it is the correct size :think: Looks good to me though :tu:

Day 1 of 30
Have grown to love multi-purpose lights lately. Olight H1R Nova and Armytek Tiara A1 specifically. It will be nice to go back to my AAA light carry...
I noticed that the patina on this baby went slightly lighter in shade...

Wow gdoolittle, the Ultratac turbo mode sounds crazy to me. :o
Over 300 lumens from a AAA light? :ahhh
Not the light for me though, I use the firefly mode on my Ti3 a lot.

I've had my Ti3 clipped to one pocket or another as my edc for over a year. I like the clip, and the light is small so it just disappears. :cheers:

Day 1: It may be my imagination but i think I'm seeing something after less than a day. Like little dark spots and marks. Not extremely visible but they're there. Especially in whiter colored light.

What a stable ride you have there... anti-spill coffee ride... hahaha...
Did the patina change with heat from to coffee?

Day 4 of 30
This time, I decided to carry my 91mm Golfer...(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170422/531b5b658eb4ceea1c877b6095de2d48.jpg)
For those wondering about the patina, this picture below shows the difference... The top portion of the barrel (the part where the head screws on) shows the light's original finish... It is unexposed to the elements...

Your flashlights are developing a lot more patina than mine. I carry/use mine every day and live near the ocean (OK, Puget Sound) but it is resisting corrosion - not sure why. Maybe I should visit the Mt. St. Helens area. A little SO2 should do the trick.

I've had this light for more than 6 months now if I'm not mistaken. The patina did develop quickly... I guess it has something to do with humidity... but I could be wrong...

I live in Georgia, USA, where it's always humid. I started carrying mine brand new when the challenge started. Also, I go to the gym every morning and put it in my pocket after I shower so maybe that accelerated it somewhat

Yeah its the last day... here is another copper poser shot.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170518/748aa588009dece74062a44caa475222.jpg)
And here's the comparison pic...
(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170518/b6fea2706ee040d16b75b8871cfe9dca.jpg)
From the pic, my copper light seems to have taken a brownish shade compared to day 1 pic... but maybe lighting conditions had something to do with it.
Carrying a copper light for 30 days is cool. And has some appeal to it. It's AAA size is just right for edc... Just need to remember to take it out of the pocket before chuckin it in the washing machine...
Definitely will be carrying this again in the future as it is still in my edc rotation...Just wished that it has multiple power modes like the i3S or Thrunite Ti3 at the very least... since I'm fancying multipurpose lights, I wished that the H1R Nova also came in copper... :facepalm:
Think I'm rambling here... better stop and sip some coffee... badge request time...

What cruise you going on, if you don't mind me asking? I am heading off on one at the end of next week as well :tu: :like:
Royal Caribbean oasis of the seas. How about you??
Carnival cruise on the Paradise :tu:
Nice! What port are you sailing from?
We are leaving out of Tampa :tu: First time at that port but I have sailed out of most of the other ports that are within 12-16 hour drive from us though :cheers:
We are leaving from Port Canaveral and going to Puerto Rico, St. Maarten, and Hati. Where are you going? It will be my first cruise.
Port Canaveral is probably my favorite port :salute: Puerto Rico is always hot :ahhh :D I really like St. Maarten and never been to Haiti so that one should be interesting :like:
We are going on just a 5 day this time around and only to Cozumel and Costa Maya, Mexico :tu: I like both of those stops and we can get a taxi quick to beaches there also very nice beaches at both :like:

I'm back!!! What did I miss?! The trip was great. The only part I didn't like was the driving. We took a detour through Orlando and stayed the night there on the way home to play on the nicest golf course I have ever seen in person. I will try to get the pen shipped off to Grant as a donation to MTO this week. I'm sure I will have a lot of catching up to do at work, on the forum, and elsewhere!
