Why fight it you know you want one

Hi Mac,

How much does the battery tube costs & what type of battries does it use? Im interested mate.

Thank you.

[cmacclel]

No modifications whatsoever. Just unscrew the Hellfighter from it's carry handle / mount and screw on the 4x 26650 battery handle for 1+ hour runtime.


Thanks Mac

Wow 4x 26650 1hr run time is great. I do not plan to use the current Hellfire I have much. But if I can score a user this could come in handy. With an added shoulder strap it would be quit manageable.

cheers

Awesome, very tempting...

Im working on getting a Hellfighter. Im interested in getting 12v car cables and that beast like handle.

Thanks for the photos, I have been drooling over the hellfire on surefires website for a while. I thought it was bigger than it is. I thought it was at least 6" across. I love the pic with the handle. I wonder if I could carry it as an EDC.

[Solscud007]

My Hellfighter showed up. Thanks Kif!! Here i'm testing out the feasibility as a weapon light. It should handle the recoil of a 12 gauge right? haha

Lucky dog with the Kel-Tec KSG......how did you score one of them Hook a brother up!

[Solscud007]

Simple. Pay out my rear. Srsly I sold a crown jewel in my toy collection to partially pay for it on gunbroker.

[Solscud007]

Well there is a new HF coming out. It has high low and strobe!!! that is just unfair for the opposing force. Strobing at 3K lumens is just mean.

The rechargeable Hellfighter 4 has been in the works for a while. I am not holding my breath for a ship date
I am dying to see the new reflector design.

[BVH]

Is it still going to be just 35 Watts to the bulb?

[Solscud007]

In the picture you can see a new mount. It has a picatinny mount build into the HF mount. I called SF and it is almost $400.

[ShortArc]

Is it still going to be just 35 Watts to the bulb?

Don't know, looking into ordering one....but the older HF have been pushing 45-50W to the bulb.

[BVH]

That's good to hear!

[ev13wt]

Neither do I. I use a 15" screen laptop. but I can understand that connection-wise, large images take a LONG time to load for some people.

Only if they are big in file size.

Jpg compression can make a fullhd or bigger size pic under a megabyte.


Awesome light! I want one mounted on my truck.

[Solscud007]

Mac's custom handle is gorgeous. Here is my HF with handle #2.

[Solscud007]

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention. We measured the SF HF and it was putting out 5,000 lumens!!

[warubozu]

What's the cost for one of Mac's custom HF handle?

[Solscud007]

What's the cost for one of Mac's custom HF handle?

$300. And well worth every penny. Actually I believe it was $250 for the handle and then $50 for the cerakoting. The craftsmanship of this handle cannot be overstated. It is a piece of art. The SW01 style tailcap is just too cool.

[warubozu]

Indeed, pure eye candy and great functionality.

Mac's custom handel
Hello,

In referecne to Mac's custom handel.

First, Great engineering work / modifications for more applications with the Hellfighter... AWESOME!!!!!!!


It says there are a few models of this handel for the Hellfighter? I am very interested....

Where can I see the other handels and what is the price/ prices? Is there a price list?

Do they come with power supplies also? different battery packs? rechargable?

Please let me know I am very interested like I said.


Thanks in advance.

Have a great day, "whatthe?"

Hi

Would realy like to know were i could get me the lego handle you but on your surefire hellfighter light?

Very light weight and compact - no battery ofcourse!

[Illum]

you don't have to quote the whole post

How the hell did they come up with a strobe mode on an HID?!

That is the handle for the Surefire Beast II. I really doubt you will be able to find one without buying the entire beast II which will set you back at least 2 grand.

How the hell did they come up with a strobe mode on an HID?!

That's is exactly what I thought when I saw the specs on the new hellfighter. I feel like that would put a lot of stress on the ballast and bulb. So I am curious as to how they managed that and keep the reliability that everyone expects from surefire and especially the hellfighter.

[cmacclel]

Color Temp was 4364k at 3731 Lumens We ran the light for 15 minutes and the output only varied 1.5%

What is it with Massachusetts and Hellfighters? Couldn't let you guys have all the fun. I'll be back to this thread in about a week. Got something in the mail.

What have I gotten myself into... Drooling over those Mac handles, too.
