Thanks download I got mine in the mail 10minutes ago and just installed one kit.
Immediate impression was very nice quality and great packing case.:thumbsup:
The drop-in appears to be stainless, too heavy to be Aluminum.
I had a slight problem fitting the white plastic collar into the minimag but its an old one and tube diameter can vary. I had to shake a AA battery in the tube to hammer it in all the way to the top.
This could be a problem as I know I can't get the ring out (without sawing off the top of the minimag tube), maybe the manufacturer should include Extra Plastic Rings in future kits in case people want to change it into a new minimag
The drop-in slid in easy. Retaining ring went on smooth and the tool is brilliant to hold it in place.
Lens and reflector centered in the head perfect and the emitter lined up in the center of the reflector.
The beam does not have the common hot spot but resembles an slightly defocused aspheric, its a smooth round spot without a center point.
I'll take some shots tonight and post them later.
