limited production :: hand crafted :: high performance :: rechargeable :: premium flashlights
This is my blog about creating a startup LED flashlight business. I'm a designer, fabricator, and strategist and I'm passionate about making ideas real. I believe that products are about people, that they should be built to last, deliver real value, and that we need to do a better job than we have in the recent past.
Most of my career has been contract or freelance work and I've crafted products and strategies for both big international companies and startups. I also used to work in the "industry" fabricating special effects for film and TV, along with the occasional hot rod. Bottom line, I love making things.
I'm starting this blog so you can follow along, from day one, and see what it's like to start a business, or fail in the process. Only time will tell, but I hope you find this interesting enough to stay tuned, comment, link, like, tweet, and (most importantly) participate in turning this idea into something tangible and valuable.
For a good place to get started with general info about who, what, why, etc., check out the "Stickies" on the left side of the page. Thanks for stopping by and please don't hesitate to ask questions and get involved!

New Prometheus Lights Website & Blog!
Faithful Dark Sucks blog readers,
The new Prometheus Lights website has launched! To keep my life nice and tidy I am moving all blogging activities to the new location and turning off the lights (😉) here on Blogger.
Come follow me on the new Prometheus Lights blog! I'm working on a series of posts on Rechargeable Batteries and the first one just went up. I'd love to here your thoughts...
Thanks for sticking with me. See you 'round the bend.

Kappa Keychain Kickstarter Launch!
Hi all! It's been a while but I've just launched a new Kickstarter campaign!
Click here to go directly to the campaign.
If you follow my work closely, you’ll know that the Kappa QR was originally released with my last Kickstarter project for the Epsilon EKO. Until now, the Kappa was only available in brass but after a lot of requests, I'm ready to go all in and deliver a variety of new materials!
The Prometheus Kappa Quick Release (QR) design is identical to (and compatible with) the Beta-QRv2 Keychain Flashlight quick release. Just like the Beta-QR, sometimes you have things on your keychain that you may need to quickly and easily detach. That might even be your keys! The Kappa QR delivers the same convenience and security in an entirely new way.
