    Sold/Expired FS; Double, Triple (or single) XP-G Host 2200 Lumen

    probly way to late, but it would be very nice if a more robust mounting scheme were added. I was planning on using the two I bought as aux running lights for my 4 wheeler, but after seeing the small single bolt used for mounting it i am having serious doubts that it will last long. I realize...

    800 Lumen Rifle Spotlight

    very interesting and unconventional build I would be interested if you deside to build more. I am curious why only 1 amp of current draw? 1200-1400ma is commonplace with that emmiter these days, it might then best the X21:devil: I would also love to know the max range this is usefull at, it...

    Do you believe in ghosts/poltergeists?

    Ok, after glancing over a few posts, I am compelled to tell my "spooky" story.. I was in high school, and looking to get a job over the summer. I was stressing out about it a bit as I really wanted to find a job in an auto shop that would allow me to learn how to mechanic (not just sweep...

    Do you believe in ghosts/poltergeists?

    Well, no on the witches, and jabba, "prophets" is a broad term that could include witch doctors and such, however, when used to describe those who might predict things, I have to give that a nod, myself having a personal, albeit very plain and unexciting experience with it myself. As far a...

    DEFT-High Output Got Lux?

    Yea, a good iron is great to have. I design/build a lot of circuit boards, and getting a good ground plain is a double edged sword. It is great when i can build a super robust ground plain(s), but getting good connections requires using two heat settings on the iron because the ground pins (or...

    DEFT-High Output Got Lux?

    I will do the epoxy, good idea. Having the emitter right on the copper heatsink makes etting a good joint a bit difficult. but it looks like it is ok.

    DEFT-High Output Got Lux?

    DEFT quit last night! I have only used it off and on since i got it, still using the first set of batteries (energizer lithium, 6.6v on pack). Switched it on and it came up for a split second and then went out. Being an electrical guy by trade i did some diagnostic work. I pulled the glue...

    pocket thrower, modding a RRT-1?

    Thanks for the replies. I would stay with the XR-E, it is the stock LED in that light and is a smaller die, better throw. My DEFT has an XR-E and is driven at 1.7 amps, but it is directly soldered to a copper heat-sink. If I were to mod a RRT-1 i would not push it tht far, i think the heat...

    pocket thrower, modding a RRT-1?

    I bought a RRT-2 a year or so ago, and after a few months use the lens fell off he LED. I replaced the XP-E with an XP-G (think i have that right). I tried putting some glow powder around the emmitter and basically it came out bad. So I bought another small single 18650 cell light with an XPG...

    Best throw single 18650 LED flashlight?

    I was just about to pull the trigger on an RRT-1, thinking i might tinker with it a bit and get the current to the LED up a bit. But the lumapower upgrade to 1.4 amp looks very nice, could you provide some more info for a newb on how to builld one of these little throwers? What is the usable...

    The first LED flashlight to break the 400K Lux mark

    http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?t=269598&page=7 Me thinks this is how it's done,.... it also explains the lack of details provided :D If this is the new magic, i would be very tight lipped as well if for nothing else than a hoard of blood sucking lawyers ready to pounce, not...

    The first LED flashlight to break the 400K Lux mark

    :D All in good fun! I am glad you are still pushing the envelope, even if you just do it for yourself. I totally understand how much work it is to offer ANYTHING to the public, let alone a custom high performance piece. It would be very cool though if you were willing to offer advice to...

    Eagletac T20C2 MKII drop in's, where to buy?

    I own an Eagletac T20C2 MKII, And their web page http://www.eagletac.com/accessories/t20c2dropin.html shows several drop in modules, a few color and XR-E R2 drop ins. The USA dealer only carries an OP version os the XR-E. I would like to get a red, green and smooth XR-E R2 (for some throw..)...

    1765 Lumen P60 Quad XPG Silver Plated Copper Heatsink Direct Drop-in, in developement

    I would love to know were i could buy these two parts! This is the set up that makes the most sense to me, with the 26650 providing more current and runtime with the draw back of a slightly larger diameter body. A single 1600ma 18650 looks like the next best, but total runtime has got to be...

    Sold/Expired P60 Quad XPG Drop-in, Silver plater copper heatsink.

    Well i am on the list, however i have been away for quite some time and need to catch up a bit. Originally i was interested in a copper or alum unit, for use in a singe 18650 surefire host, but now i need to go back and see if that is the best route. I may look into a single 26650 host (if any...
