[vestureofblood]

XM-L2 NOW AVAILABLE!

*875 OTF LUMENS!!*

Lets just get to cut to the chase. My shorty XML maglites are now available with XM-L2 crees next generation LED.





In addition to the much higher output produced by the new XM-L2, shorty maglites are now also come with a 3.5A max output! Together this provides a huge jump in output verses previous models!

I had ti-force ( a reputable member of CPF with a calibrated integrating sphere) test both the old and new versions of this light.

EDIT: 3/28/13 A.S. UI group 2 now starts at low.
EDIT: 1/28/13 XM-L2 NOW AVAILABLE!!! <-----
EDIT: 11/8 New Signature User Interface added.
EDIT: 8/17 Head finning added.

I am now pleased to offer cut down/re-threaded C and D Maglites for sale.











The C lights have also been bored to fit 26650.






The D cell lights come equipped with a sleeve that is bored out to comfortably fit any 26650 cells, or the sleeve can be removed for use with D size li-ion


The spring of the D cell lights is recessed into the tail. An adapter has been added to ensure tight fit of the smaller spring so there is no chance you will be "chasing your tail" down the street.








I am offering any these as a host only or as a completed light with a top bin Cree XM-L2 emitter and a multi mode driver.





Here are a couple comparison shots.


Standard LED Mag.



Shorty XML Mag.




Custom shorty maglites will now include 2.8A driver with my new signature UI.


The UI consists of 4 groups.
1. Ramp mode low to high with memory.
2. Low 2%, Med 25%, High 100% with memory.
3. Low 2% Med 25%, High 100%, Srobe, SOS, Beacon, NO memory.
4. High 100%, Low 15%.

The light will come preset to your choice of group if needed.
Mode groups are switched by 8 fast clicks <.25 sec.
The driver has a low voltage flash at 3V to protect li-ion cells.
Upon entering the beacon mode there is a battery indicator flash. The light will quickly flash 1 time for each 0.1V above 3V and then enter the beacon mode.

Here is a video of the UI in action.

Shorty host only with factory switch C or D choice of any common color 59$

Fully assembled Light with XM-L2, heat sink, driver UCL lens $139

Head finning $20

Is this a special, or will you leave this thread open for orders on a continuing basis?

[vestureofblood]

The plan is to keep it open.

Low is 3-5ma, Med is 35%, High is 100% 3040ma

nice.
can you put the nichia 219 in one?

[vestureofblood]

I haven't used them before, but I dont see why not. The VF/current requirements appear to be about the same as other LEDs.

[hron61]

great. i just have to save some funds but it sounds good to me. give me a couple weeks. will you still be building them at that time?

[simplec6]

Woah man. Check CPF Classifieds. I paid a week ago and no response.

Edit: VoB is taking care of it. Good seller.

What do the CPF banner postings have to do with this thread?

What do the CPF banner postings have to do with this thread?

Did you miss the part where I paid for an item that he listed on CPF Classifieds forum a week ago with no response? It is relevant to this thread because most people don't enjoy paying for things and not hearing from the seller for a week. Any other concerns?

Edit:
VoB is taking caring of it. Good seller.

[vestureofblood]

Wow! Simplec6 I owe you an apology. I didnt realize you meant CPF market place. I have not logged in there until just now in many days.

I will make this up to you straight away. PM sent.

Thanks so much VoB.
Replied to your PM about ordering one of the Mag D hosts in this thread!

[^^Nova^^]

Hi VoB,

A couple of quick questions, I assume you are using incan mags for these and re-using the standard reflector? Is it possible to use a new rebel led model (DL serial number) as the host, the deeper reflector should provide some wicked throw. Can you frost the standard reflector?

Cheers,
Nova

[vestureofblood]

JeffN and Simplec6, orders have shipped. Thanks again.

Nova, Yes standard mags are used. Yes I can use a Rebel. I could either use the light body from an LED mag or I can just stick the heat sink down into the neck of a standard mag farther and use a deep rebel reflector. I have experimented with "frosting" plastic reflectors before. Its a somewhat common CPF practice to do whats know as "sputtering" ( basically using clear paint to create an uneven surface) The results with this are ok, certainly not as good as with a true MOP reflector but it does soften the beam with some decrease in brightness.

[simplec6]

Vob, awesome machining on the shorty Mag D and really nice tailcap solution. Very nice products, the C-mag heatsink is really good fitwise as well. I will be ordering more stuff soon.
