Milky L1 Information Thread Part 2

[Raven67]

Hi MilkySpit,

Sorry for the typing on the post before this one, I did not mean to misquote your name. Anyway, sent you a PM by E-mail. I would like to get my L-1 upgraded and forgot to mention the addition of the delrin stand up tail cap. I'd sure like one if you have it.

Thanks.

milky you still have any flathead or headless l1's for sale?

[warubozu]

I know this is a old thread revival but Milky do you still have any old version ML-1 for sale?

Yes, Ben, Milky is still operating.

I see that you sent me an email around 9:45am my time. I'll reply next chance I get.

[Benchiew]

Ok. No problem milky.

I was recently lucky enough to purchase a used ML1 from the marketplace (ML1 Cree TIR Focusable MM+/43 ohm Tail). From previous posts I see that it's ok to swap the modified tailcap with different lights, but am wondering if it would be safe to try swapping the ML1 head onto my stock L1 Cree and vice versa.

Just curious to see how the stock led will do with the MadMax Plus driver. Currently using an RCR in the stock L1 there is a little improvement, but still nowhere near the output of my 110 lumen E1B. Milky with either primaries or RCRs of course blows away the E1B.

I realize this is an old thread but hope there will be ML1 aficianados out there to give me a hand.

Thanks, RVW

Hi RVW, the head from your ML1 should work fine on a stock L1 body, and vice versa. No problem that I can see. Enjoy!

Milky, thanks for getting back to me! Just getting dark here, but looks like although both stock pieces are nicely improved by swapping onto ML1 pieces, still nowhere near the beautiful beam of the complete ML1. Curiosity satisfied, but now more than ever I've got an urge to get my poor feeble new (NOS) L1 turned into an ML1 if it's in the cards. I'll send you a PM shortly,

Thanks again and have a good weekend, RVW

Awww, I hope all is well for him.

I guess I'll just have to wait and stare at my "new" L1 until he's able to mod it for me


It's so pretty!
I bought it from a customer where I work for £60, still with original battery as far as I can tell!
The guy's a Police Officer too, so that makes it all the better!
