Hey there! You can now order your Kinetic Driver at www.placedatoms.com ;)
This post is for backers only. Please visit Kickstarter.com and log in to read.
When four years ago we decided to design the best flashlight we could ever think of we had two specific goals in mind:
We created an invisible knob. Just push the button and tilt your DARKFADE to choose the brightness.
And yeah - the 45° angled head is way more ergonomic and makes it so much easier to remove the darkness exactly where you want to.
Today we have shipped the last Kickstarter Pledge!
We simply cannot put away the big smile we have on our faces: all your comments, reviews, unboxing videos, all the positive reception that the Kinetic Driver has had made us so proud and happy!!!
It has been a long and winding journey and we just can’t stop thanking all of you who believed in us, in what we do and make.
But it’s not over yet! We now have to start shipping the orders we got after the Kickstarter campaign, and we’ll begin very soon.
We can’t make an accurate prediction to let you know when your pre-order will arrive yet. But as soon as we start shipping, we’ll keep everyone updated by releasing updates here on Kickstarter.
If you were a Kickstarter Backer and you have not received your tracking number, please check your spam and promotion folders, sometimes our emails end up there. And do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected] if you can’t still find it.
We thanked all of you so many times but we really can’t stop doing it.
As the packaging says, “This Kinetic Driver would not exist without people like you”. Thank you for making this a reality.
Some of you have asked how the bearing assembly can be disassembled, so we have published a detailed tutorial here. Just remember to be safe and wear thick gloves to do that!
Did you know that we launched a course about how to build your own product company? We'll talk a lot about the Maker Knife and Kinetic Driver as well! You should have a look here!!!
Thank you!
As estimated, we’re keeping up the pace. We are now shipping backer #4000! :)
We’re aware of longer transit times (it’s, unfortunately, the new norm), if you’ve already received your tracking number hold on tight and don’t panic, the tracking takes a few days to update.
Feel free to message us anytime at [email protected] if you need any help or information!

We’re currently hovering around Backer Number 2900 and keeping the best pace we can.
As you know, shipping is a mess worldwide and delivery might take a bit longer than expected but so far we can’t complain too much.
We’ve already seen a lot of awesome posts, pictures, and videos from happy people that have already received their KINETIC DRIVER: this is possibly the best support we can get and makes us really really happy!
Please remember to contact [email protected] if you need any help and do not post your address in the comments! ;)
Thank you!
