Bring Back the GG Grant or not?

[Lisaf01]

The GG Grant has been out of production for a while now and many people miss it.

It was the original inspiration behind many of the 14500/2 x CR2 devices that we see available today and its small form factor and good looks really set it apart and made it a favourite of many.

I (and many others) believe that there should remain a simpler, smaller GG, at a lower cost than the all-singing, all-dancing GGTS and bringing the Grant back into production would provide that.

So, what say the people?

But I said that I will make something better
Slimmer with more choices on batteries, more features, only a little bigger (10mm)

Lisa you force me to give away my secrets!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes keep making the Grant.... you build it and they WILL fill a void in the GG line. As the middle level or entry level PV with great looks and a good size. I am using mine daily now as my contrasting flavor. I love the Grant.

Supply and Demand.... we demand the Grant... and plenty have even expressed interest in the Trans as well.

 

[imeothanasis]

1000 people want GGTS and 100 Grant and GGT. I will make something better as I said no worries guys.

I think the poll had to had another title.

Do you want the new AFS to work for 510 too??

better title

 

[Stormynights]

I am still on my honeymoon time with my Storm.

 

[vt100]

Yes, a 510 AFS would be a huge seller! I'm hooked on GGTS though so I'm waiting for the new AFS and my daughter is waiting for my beta AFS! I'm the "not sure" vote, never had a Grant so I'm not sure

How about 801?

 

[imeothanasis]

Stormy, there is no cig like GGTS and maybe there will never be!

VT I am happy that you agree friend!

Lisa sorry for hijacking the poll

 

[vapn]

I think you missed the point. It was a simple question about the grant. Some people want an inexpensive GG. Not all this fancy stuff. Simple design at low cost. If they cant find it in the GG line they will go somewhere else and look. The Chevy has Corvette, and Cavalier for all peoples price range... simple

As I said again Vapn, no worries friend. I have in mind exactly what you want! and more!!!!!!

For the purposes of this particular poll, forget all the other lovely stuff that you're busy inventing. This was just a simple question about whether people thought it would be sensible to bring back an entry-level GG device at a lower cost than the flagship GGTS product.

I think the results are going to show that people do indeed want it back.

I think the grant deserves to stay on the front lines. Only if it can be improved on. For example the back caps and attie cap should be upgraded to the GGTS style but it doesn't need the 4 in 1 threads... the only reason I say this is because the GGTS is flag ship which means everything behind it should at least look like it. But it doesnt have to have all the bells and whistles. Like telescopic system and the 4 n 1 threads, and possibly only 6061 aluminum is all that is needed. Just to help keep it on cheaper side.

And if you think about it Imeo wouldn't have to change his equipment settings in the factory except to make everything smaller. But no other adjustments will be needed. which means a lot less time in the factory and more time in Lisa's and Rob's hands.

But no matter what he changes or no changes I still want one....
