Put me down for one Mac!
Looks great!

Surely since one custom heat sink is done it could be duplicated again? Eh?

:goodjob:

I would be interested in the cost of a build like this if you ever make it available.

I think thats HipHop mogul Russell Simons wife Kimora Lee.

Maybe the new Project X light should be named after the HipHop guy from "Pimp My Ride" Xzibit

"Pimp My Light" Project "X" is pretty Pimped Out !!!!

Mac, great work. It's impressive, and really looks better then my Tri-Lux too
(https://www.candlepowerforums.com/posts/1605976) :laughing: :grin2: :naughty:

I have a question about the reflectors used.
You mention a "HyperLux V reflector"....
Are these better for use with a LuxV ?
I'm a bit dim when it comes to LuxV's.....

Thanks and good luck with your projects !
George.

Superior craftmanship, quite the shinning work of art.
Please, please say you are going to offer them for sale.
