*NEW* Cree XM-L Mag Drop-In

[Rusty Joe]

In the video of installation, how is it that this powerful mod doesn't require a glass lens?

Probably because most of the heat is formed at the base of the emitter and not in the emitted light or glass bulb as it is in an incandescent.

I would get glass for better clarity

...still waiting.....

Your module will ship tomorrow. I typically do not have these in stock and are built up when ordered. I have a batch of 20 or so lights that Im trying to get out and apologize for the delay on the Drop-in.

There is no waiting list, but there is still a long wait for delivery?

Yes even though there is no waiting list I have 100 other projects going on

Ok, just trying to keep my patience in check... Not meaning to rush or anything. I can't wait!! :-)

Why not get a 3D or 4D maglite and three or four tenergy 10100?

[gatorgofer]

Well, A 2D host is what I have at the moment and that's about as big as I care to carry on my walks. I am curious however, how many Lumens and how much run time the 3 1/2D's provide?

You can fit 3 NiMH C cells by Tenergy in a 2D Mag. Just take off the paint inside the tailcap and cut the spring really short.

Then just go to Hardware store and get some PvC pipe cut to lengh and use as a battery holder. This is what I do.

With the new 3000K XMLs floating about, has there been any additions in the line of drop-ins?

Hard to say without measuring equipment, but about what my tk30 is as far as brightness but throw is superior. I use a 4D mag and I got my flashlight last week and I yet to charge my batteries. The guy who posted after you made a good point using c-cells instead...carrying a 4D takes a little bit to get used to, but plus side is that I can use it as a batting weapon as well as a blinding light. Just food for thought...

hmm... kinda wish i woulda saw this before i just got my Malkoff drop in... i was wanting the multi mode switch, maybe i'll get this for my 2D i have laying around. Can you run a 2 or 3 AA to D set up or the half D's pretty much the only way to go? i dont' have a charger and kinda am on a budget...

No sales for the drop-ins has slowed to the point that I will not be making another batch unless the demand rises.

I would be in for 1 3000K XMLs drop in if you make some.

Put me down for a 4500 should you decide to make more.

[mikesantor]

I want one too...

[Heath_m]

Count me for one too Mac! Any chance demand has risen enough yet to make some more drop ins for a maglite? I'm dying for your product and I've been hunting all over!

[xpshooter]

I hope you decide to make more, I would like one of these.



Thanks

The drop-in uses a 7135 chip boards with a maximum input voltage of 6v. It' not a fully regulted driver board.

[cdrake261]

I would love to have another xm-l version only with a taskled driver, but that's just silly talk! :-P
