Sold/Expired Techjunkie's Super Lights sale *9 lights* *price reductions*
Re: Techjunkie's Everything Must Go Sale Thanks, Q4F. That's nice of you to say. I think it's safe to say that I've cooled my heels for quite some time on this hobby, and doubt I'll ever be as possessed by it ever again. Somehow, I managed to break the addiction. Burned-out on it is...- Techjunkie

Sold/Expired Techjunkie's Super Lights sale *9 lights* *price reductions*
Re: Techjunkie's Everything Must Go Sale Recently sold my POB HID, my Man-o-war 4x XML creation and #7 above and so thought this thread could use a bump. Also, I've reintroduced the lights formerly withdrawn for sale. Additionally, feel free to PM me with an offer on anything you see in my...- Techjunkie

Mag 2D modded for/with deep SMO XM-L drop-in and 2*26650
Built this back in May, but don't have a build thread on it here. Have to post this so I'll have something to link to in the sales thread I've got going on... The new "V8" deep SMO XM-L 8.4V drop-in looked interesting. I'd hoped that with it's 51mm OD lip, it'd be a straightforward Mag C or...- Techjunkie

Sold/Expired Techjunkie's Super Lights sale *9 lights* *price reductions*
Re: Techjunkie's Everything Must Go Sale Just re-opened this sale with reintroduced lights and big reductions in price. Hate to let any of them go, but really need the $$, and unfortunately, not for more lights. Also, #10 is a new addition to the list. Here's some build photos and...- Techjunkie

One of a kind: Streamlight SL20 custom XM-L drop-in
The light in post #1 matches the SL20X on the left, but notice the switch on the light in top pic of post #21. That is an SL-20. I have done both. The SL-20 is more challenging and required me to be more inventive, to preserve the charging function and avoid damage to the driver or battery.- Techjunkie

One of a kind: Streamlight SL20 custom XM-L drop-in
SoCalDep, Yes - I still do these on request, thanks for asking. Below are the results of a pre-1986 SL20 mod I did for another CPF member. That one was even more challenging, as the older model charges the battery through the lamp filament. I had to use some high power diodes to preserve the...- Techjunkie

Built: The Everyman's Triple XM-L 3-mode NiMH Optic
IIRC, there weren't any rings or artifacts, so... 10?. There were two components to the beam - hotspot and spill, much like a reflector. Other optics project single component beams, like the DX quad for example, which projects a large rounded square. Still others work like aspherics and...- Techjunkie

10A Forward clickie??
The Judco switches with momentary on (forward clickies) are in my opinion after using them beyond spec and seeing them disassembled, very underrated. My guess is that they can probably handle 10A without melting. With a little modding, I was able to build one into a Mag C tailcap. I'm...- Techjunkie

New XM-L driver on DX, anyone getting one?
Make sure the windings of the coil aren't shorting out on any other components or the host and make sure the negative LED lead isn't shorting to ground.- Techjunkie

New XM-L driver on DX, anyone getting one?
I'm not aware that 57779 has a low voltage warning, although if it did, I assume you'd have bypassed it when bypassing the modes. On a side note, I needed to replace the driver in a two cell, single XML light that didn't have room for the height of 57779 or the width of 20330. I tried 106805...- Techjunkie

Built: LED Incapacitor aka: PukeLight
I played with it a bit before shipping it out. It didn't make me nauseous, and personally, I don't think that the colors add much to the effect, but the strobing pretty much made it impossible for my eyes to see anything but the LEDs when the light was pointed in my direction. My eyes just...- Techjunkie

stanley Fat Max XML spotlight !!!
I did my own 6-way XML shootout of XML in various smooth reflectors, including the Stanley FatMax. Below is a stopped-down beamshot. That's the FatMax furthest on the right with the HD2010 immediately next to it. It's important to note that the HD2010 is generally regarded as one of the best...- Techjunkie
