Holy crap Jaya man. That's nuts after a couple weeks of use. Does that partially mean that it's a cheaper quality or percentage copper that it looks sooo dark?Thanks Kaput... Don't have any knowledge on metallurgy, so I wouldn't be able to answer. Maybe humidity is a factor? One thing is for sure. It's also an Olight i3E EOS Copper light... :cheers:

I wonder why the i3s isn't quite as brassy as the other one - the naturally patina looks wonderful.
Really looking forward to these.

By a crazy coincidence I just ordered an i3s and an i3e cos they both look fantastic.
I wonder why the i3s isn't quite as brassy as the other one - the naturally patina looks wonderful.
Really looking forward to these.
theres 2 brass versions, 1 with a raw finish and one with a shinier laquer type coating, the last pic I posted has the shiny version(the longer light)
The copper only comes in the raw finish, but as it oxidizes it loses that new penny look.
Post by: jaya_man on January 13, 2017, 01:45:03 AM
Is that a natural patina? Curious as it looks so much different than other copper olight i3 Ive seen pics of. Although I suppose that why patina is inherrintley unique :tu:It's natural patina... :cheers:

Mine came in between 2 weeks to a month...I'll definitely post. I'll use it daily, (and won't really handle it otherwise). So we'll see. It'll be hard. Itll be hard to not swap out and carry my Ti s1 from time to time. But I am really pleasantly pleased with this purchase!

LOL, yeah that one only comes in brass, but I guess since copper is in brass, it will change the raw model, but the one I posted has a coating so I dont think that one(brass i3s) will change like spauldings. One thing I do notice is the threads are very stiff on copper model even with lube especially when you cross over the o ring to turn on/off

I got one of the aluminium i3s's and apart from obviously being lighter, it is far smoother to operate one-handed. Added to the fact that it comes on at medium brightness (which I prefer) and is currently 1/3 of the price of the CU version, I have to conclude that the AL version is the one I should have purchased in the first place! I love the look of the copper i3e and i3s but I wouldn't buy them again, whereas I will buy a bunch of AL i3s's for birthday presents and stocking fillers. (Thinking ahead here..!)

there's no way im boiling eggs and not making egg salad
I know the feeling....
Unless the copper-egg reaction results in something toxic - (Agent Orange, mustard gas etc...) - there's nothing stopping you from eating the egg-mush afterwards...
I'd love to know what's going on here chemically to make the patina. (Since I am a complete moron regarding chemistry, I can't figure it out for myself.)
Post by: kaput on February 05, 2017, 09:28:57 PM
I saw a trick mentioned on another forum. Chop some boiled eggs into tiny chunks, stick them in a plastic bag, and shove your copper flashlight in there... when you pull it out 8 hours later it will have a groovy dappled patina. (I haven't tried it, but the result looked pretty cool. For those who are looking for an Insta-Patina.):worthless:
Or links please :D

I really really enjoy this light and must have used it a half dozen times today alone. BUT, I can't stand the way the head turns to turn it on. Counter clockwise just seems wrong to me... my other olights a clicks so I don't have any issue or preconceived notions. But it seems backwards, and I do it backwards every time I got to turn it on I instinctualy.
It's how all the twist lights I own turn. Try holding the head of the light with your left hand and twisting the body clockwise. It's how I like to do it.

I use the light one handed. It's so small it just makes sense. I pull it out of my pocket with a lanyard and twist it on one handed.I really really enjoy this light and must have used it a half dozen times today alone. BUT, I can't stand the way the head turns to turn it on. Counter clockwise just seems wrong to me... my other olights a clicks so I don't have any issue or preconceived notions.

I was a long time Maglite user (Solitaire LED, Mini Mag AA and Mini Mag AAA) and had to get used to my newer lights... Mags turns clockwise while other twisties I own turn counter-clockwiseMaybe that's it. With maglite being the household flashlight for years that probably ingrained that into my twisting familiarity.

First impressions of the I3E are good but I do notice the threads for the twisty feel gritty and stick. I cleaned and lubed the threads and o-ring, but it's still the same. It doesn't feel like it's dirty. It feels like the threads were not ground well. Hopefully it will smooth out with some use.
mine are tight also, as I said above, its aslo tight going over the o-ring, when light warms up threads loosen up a little, I was considering cleaning lube off and trying teflon tape, as it works well with copper and brass plumbing threads, but not sure it will be good on a light that gets twisted often
I'm starting to use the light on my keychain cause it has a off center emitter, and dont care if it gets banged up, so maybe that will speed up patina process. Out of the three I3e's I got this winter, the copper & black were off center emitters, the silver one is perfectly centered

damn that does look nice kaput. looks like an A/C or plumbing pipe after I braze or solder, I'm not happy with the progress on mine + the emitter is off center. I've alternated this light on my keychain and neck lanyard and its just taking too long, don't think it will ever get that nice color yours hasIt really came out of nowhere. At first it had no changes, then whammy, it got dark in days... I do like it. Although I really also like the raw in patina fresh copper look as well. I think it's sharp :tu:

Next time your hands get sweaty roll the light around in your palms, hold it, ect.... It should patina rather quickly.

It's a video about Adam visiting his blogger friend and goes through stuff on the blogger's desk. One of which are a set of cylinders to illustrate density (100 grams) including led, aluminum, brass and copper. They then have a short chat on patina. Oil and humidity could be a factor...

the olight still stinks, using a Qtip dipped in vinegar on the body, 2-3 times a week maybe it will look cool after awhile:
here's the buck, its brass, patina naturally in its leather holster, wondering if the leather is a factor:

Leather is most definitely a factor. Leather holds moisture and will cause a patina.

With lights like Tip and Tini I don't get much chance to put it on my keychain anymore, it's also a lot heavier, but's its cool to have at least 1 copper light in my collection.

I lost my first one :cry: I have another but haven't carried it nowhere near as much as I carried the first one :facepalm: it ihas some patina but I haven't made another copper clip to carry it yet....... Sometime perhaps and then I will try to carry it more again :salute:

Looks quite patina'd, Blackbeard. :cheers:
Thx DP, seems like it keeps changing back and fourth, I cant seem to get that nice rainbow effect like Jaya, I researched a bunch of chemically forced methods, but they all seem to eat the surface too much.
