Some pics of development

[cddz]

These picrures are of the early developement of the Silver BUllet.

The one that started it, as you can see very cheap button that only lasted a few weeks.

Machining the lower section of the first prototype. After serching for weeks and finding the right switch we could start.

My good freind Steve showing the skills. Want to give him credit for his patience with me and tremendous help with the SB. Could not do it with out you bud! By the way his initials are SB wtf?

First prototype switch housing. I remember that I could not wait to get home to build it!!

Rough finished prototype number one. As you can see the switch needed to be a bit more recessed. Later a radius to the top and a chamfer added for a more finished look.

Prototype 1 after radius was added.

I think you all know the rest of the story.


Would like to thank those who helped out getting this into production.
Steve, Rob, Melody, Kelby, Tom
I also thank everyone who has tried the SB and given feedback(good and bad)

Short answer yes.
V1 used a 18500@ 3.7v or 2 x CR2(not recomended)
V1.1 uses 18650@3.7v or 2 x Cr123@3v (protected 6v)

You have produced a work of art. It is beautiful. It has no extras that are not needed. I like the fact that it is more mechanical, which will add to its lifespan (which from its looks and design should be very long).

The recessed switch looks very functional and is an addition to the Silver Bullet's beauty.

Yep, that switch is by far the best looking of all the mods. I have a feeling it will become my first choice of the mods I already have. Can't wait to get mine!
