Beautiful work Icarus! Clean and precise as always from you.

I like all of the Elephant customs, but the quad is one of my favorites.

Nice job Freddy!

Wow. Nice work! I gotta get back into this. 900 lumens in LED is awesome! A multiple LED light driven nicely by Li Ion like yours is sooo tempting...

Nice Freddy!

The quad-Cree is a great thrower, with great runtime. XRE's are old news, but my fav lights are built with them. It's hard to beat the throw of an XRE with the newer multi-die emitters.

[Icarus]

my friends for the kind words.

Except for the aspheric mods this is the best throwing clustered led light I've seen so far.

Hi Freddy,


Good to see you modding again.


Nice move going with the Cree emitters.

I`ve lways favored them in the McR Reflectors for throw.


Beutiful light and mod as always.


Cheers,
Benny

Hi Benny,

The Cree XR-E and McR27XR are indeed a great combination for throw.

[AOBRICK]

Still one of the best looking lights ever made.

A trip to Belgium to meet Freddy and his Elephants.

Hi criollo,



Thanks for sharing, I'm sorry that I could not get those heat-sinks you wanted in time for your trip.



With regards,

Seeing your lights feel like watching the museum of Art.
