Hi Firenock friends,
We will be in the ATA 2008 in Indianapolis. At there we shall reveal the new Firenock "G" series AKA Firenock v3.0. We have our new lighted nock tested, and it is ready. Firenock will be taking order at the ATA. Come and see us at Booth 3532.
We are so very excited of our new products. It was filed with US patent office as of this morning. Cannot tell you all the detail here, but will try my best to explain at and after the ATA on the web with the newly design web pages. You can also shot our new NON-Magnetic activation prototype nock in the ATA, as we have a few of the prototype in hand already. I know how good they worked. One of them already pass my 300 shot test, it is a torture to me..LOL It just works.
Price? Need to see me at the booth for that. Availability? Need to see me at the booth for that. Models? Need to see me at the booth for that. Accessories? Need to see me at the booth for that.
Answers? You need to come and see Dorge at booth 3532 and chat.
regards
Dorge Huang DBA Firenock

"for answers see dorge" ;D I really do wish I could make it to the ATA - I need to do it one of these years. Maybe after the ATA you can fill us in? ? good to hear from you though - even with the BIG teaser

Dorge,
I am glad to see that you are still in the game and will be at the ATA show. I am looking forward to seeing the info on your new nocks.
Bob

There will be a total of 5 different Firenock packages to be offered at the ATA 2008 Indianapolis.
3 for the standard size arrows and 2 for the crossbow bolts
which 2 of them are 3 packs (w/3 matched weights) and 3 of them are single pack (w/2 matched weights)
NOW IMAGINE Firenock for TARGET beside the HUNTING models, auto shut off in 12-17 seconds.
More DETAIL Tomorrow.

HOW IT WORKS!
When an arrow with Firenock "G" reaches 125 ft/seconds, it will activate the internal fuzzy logic system (which has a temperature range of -40F to 85C). which now turns on the light and the motion sensing subsystem, which in turn turns off the "G" switch. When the 4-8 protection system runs out, while the motion sensing subsystem is not being disturbed, one can apply a linear direction force of 155 "G" to the arrow, the light will turn off.
ADVANTAGE: 1) prevent the light form turning on from all 6 directional axis up to 150G 2) prevent the light form turning on from 5 directional axis up to drop from 3 meter/10 ft. 3) do not need any actuator 4) NOT effected by magnetic force 5) SIMPLE to use
DISADVANTAGE 1) COST (more detail tomorrow) 2) weight (~2 grains more than Firenock v2.0) 3) arrow need to reach speed no less than 125 ft/seconds to work 4) NOT Available Yet, but soon (More detail tomorrow)
Firenock Deactivation a. Wait no less than 4-8 seconds before trying to shut off the Firenock. b. Align the lighted firenock perpendicular to a hard surface. c. Lift the firenock no less than 8 inches (20 cm) from the surface d. Drop the arrow to allow the arrow to hit the hard surface nock first via gravitational force. e. Upon impact, Firenock shall shut off automatically. f. If it does not shut off, repeat Step (b) and raise the distance in 2- inches (5 cm) increments until shut off. Note: Concrete, hardwood, stone, are samples of hard surface. If Firenock does not shut off after the free fall distance is as high as 12 inches (30 cm), and it is within warranty period, please send in your firenock for warranty replacement.

Firenock "G" Series 2008/01/14 NEWS with Firenock "G" on and off (VIDEO) Here it is! For those who would like to see how you can turn on and off Firenock "G" without shooting it. I use my table for this filming. Since it is made of MDF board, it is quite hard, I can turn on Firenock "G" in less than a 5" drop. Please note how well the 4 seconds delay protection works as I bounce it a few more time just to show you all before I waited for the motion sensor to reset the system before it was shut off by another 5" drop. FYI, the harder the material, the shorter the drop. So if it is concrete, one should be able to shut it off for less than 2.75". While 2" pile carpet floor may need the whole 8". Just for fun, it take a total of 27" on my feather pillow to shut it off. I shall try to get a firenock "G" launch off the bow tomorrow so you all can see where it actually turned on. My last tests shows that it should turn on about 1"-1.5" after I release it which is where the beginning of the power stroke of the bow is. Firenock "G" Series 2008/01/15 NEWS www.firenock.com is up.
