Why do you sell it? :confused:

You put so much work into it and then you give it away? What happend?

Flashlight works fine, figured out that they really don't like 5 amps but works fine at 3 amps. I needed to sell because my car ate my HID ballast...so I have to fix that.

No question is stupid...The thermal pad can be difficult to set up and takes a while to be adhesive, I tried several times but with no success. Thermal compound is both a quick setting adhesive and and a decently good thermal conductive compound.

Should I be scared now? Because I use this thermal adhesive pad all the time, so far so good.

Really bad to see you are selling light after so much work you done. What is the Mini Mag setup you are showing beside the large beast?

Thank you
Iztok

If you have the patience to do it right, then there's nothing to be afraid of. I'm selling my maglite so I can replace my HID's in my car, around $300 dollars. My micro mag I am keeping, JonnyMac made it for me. It's my little powerful workhorse that has proved itself over and over.

cdrake261, were you referring to the 32650's not liking a 5amps current draw? Or did you mean the XMLs?
