Very nice product
This is a very well made flashlight and the three modes are all very useful. My only complaint is the clear coating they applied to the copper. It probably makes the copper less susceptible to tarnish but that is exactly what I appreciate about copper and brass. This coating was quite difficult to get completely off. Aside from that, I am very satisfied.

GnystromI love patina and therefore Copper, Bronze and Brass. So I wonder what you did to get of the coating? Sure would like this. Have one in Brass that patina nicely and has button, 3 mode.

ThomasAasenThomas, I really struggled to get most of the coating off. I used metal polish on a buffing wheel but it will never get out of every nook and cranny. I suspect there is some sort of liquid remover that would strip everything off but I did not want to take the time to find which worked best. I really wish they would ship these lights without coating buy then people would complain they they would soon tarnish. I find if you like patina, just put the flashlight standing up in a plastic bag with a rag with some household ammonia overnight which will darken raw copper or brass very quickly. That works for me but try at your own risk.
