Mirage Man Customs

[jamesmtl514]

Odd request.
can someone take pictures of the pill? The light engine.
I have a Fatty, but I haven't been able to get a light engine for it. This is proving to be extremely frustrating. If you guys can help me out it would be very appreciated.

I would have assumed a typical Aleph engine would work. Wrong?

Correct obi. These Mirage_Man fatties were originally designed to take Aleph L.E with Cree-XRE emitters to be used in conjunction with the Aleph-19-XR reflector.

As such, I believe that the can used for the L.E was an XR-can

Here is an example of a Cree-XRE L.E which I sold a long time ago. This would have worked in the MM Fatty in conjunction with the McR19XR



If I'd taken any photos of the underside, I would have added one here, but unfortunately I didn't

[jamesmtl514]

Thanks a lot guys.
unfortunately I don't know what an Aleph is or who made it.
Is it customizable? Could I change the emitter to an XM-L?

Also, I understand Mac made some pills for MM, will his xml edc.fit?

Thanks in advance!

James, I would prefer not to have technical discussions clogging up my thread. The thread was really designed to display Mirage Man customs, not create a public forum on light engines. Please start another thread in that regard if you so choose. Thank you for your understanding.

[jamesmtl514]

Absolutely Troy. My apologies.
If someone can reply to my questions via pm that would be great.
In the spirit of this thread, here are some goofy legos with my e1e

My MM is at the spa . . . fresh pics when it returns. . .

Here's one I took in the last photo shoot.

James, now we're talkin'!

Shelby, that Fatty's gettin' more press than Kim Kardashian!

I can honestly say these MM lights are by far & away the best lights I've ever seen.I absolutely love them & i hope one day Brian will make me a 1x123a fatty just like the one SILVA loves
so here's hoping for the day i'm the owner of one of these master pieces.

Recently, I think im going to shoot Brian a pm.

[grayhighh]

Old photo, taken before i trede it.

[grayhighh]

[smarkum]

I miss my Fatty too . . . it went to the spa and is not back yet. . . Trying to be patient . . . patience . . . patience . . . You go for it Cary! I'll live through you right now!

Is that a MirageMan head? Lumens Factory offers something that looks very similar.

swing and a miss.
It's a Surefire head from the E1e-SG I swapped the parts with that light and my fatty.

[fyrstormer]

Ah. Just curious.

[Silgt]

WOW four pages of drool-worthy pics of MM's masterpieces...I'm in love

Looks like I'll be making plans for my first Fatty soon, single cell (most probably a 16340) any suggestions here before I shoot an email to Brian???

Beautiful...I have the same light, may I know where did you get the switch upgrade from?

Wow! More Mirage Man mastery. Sensational as always, Brian!

[chipwillis]

Please send that one to me..... Noice

[fyrstormer]

James, now we're talkin'!

Shelby, that Fatty's gettin' more press than Kim Kardashian!

Please be kind, AWTYD. It's not fat, it's just thick-tubed. It can't help the way it was made.

[easilyled]

I'm still at it guys.

That's reassuring to know Brian. Long may it last.

Very nice, Shelby! A colorful and unique version. It's triterrific!
