MD26E Drop-ins - single XM-L2, triple 219, quad XP-G2, XM-L2 mule

MD26E/P60 Drop-ins - single XM-L2, triple 219B, quad XP-G2, XM-L2 Mule, Hepta XM-L2

Hi, folks!

I would like you to show you some of my new drop-ins. They are hand made and designed to perfectly fit Solarforce and Surefire hosts. Since they are 100% hand made, custom ones for other hosts or flashlight bodies are possible, too.

Here are some details:

• Hand selected LEDs - low Vf and perfectly matched at triples, quads and hepta modules.
• Copper bonded LEDs in all drop-in models
• LED-MCPCBs are glued using a Diamond thermal adhesive
• High mineralic thermal potted electronic (even with diamond on request)
• Best PTFE sleeved silver plated oxygen free copper wires (22 AWG) - Soldered with best Mundorf Silber/Gold solder (contains silver and gold)
• Made of one piece of aluminum, some with copper cores
• Custom circuits with different mode groups and extra functions like additional color modes, a stand-by mode, voltage monitoring, etc.
• Real off-time mode memory or reset
• Overheat-, voltage- and reverse polarity- protection
• Beryllium-Copper springs

Following some pictures of various models (newer ones at the bottom).

Just custom orders. But I could offer some of them here on CPF, if there is a demand for quality drop-ins. Right now, the most expensive one is the Quad, which would cost $130, incl. everything. But there are also some special editions like a regulated MTG-2 Drop-in as mule or with aspherical lens, and also the "Hepta Mule", with 7 XM-L2 LEDs.

I think, I'll keep this thread updated.

Excellent looking drop ins. These might get me back into p60 lights again.

What sort of custom modes can you do? Can each level be a specified current?

Can you build another XM-L triple?

IS The quad XP-G2 spoken for ?

Fantastic looking work. Wow!

these look incredible! i might have to get some solarforce hosts now.

i would like to know more about your custom drivers.
whats maximum voltage? how many modes? drive currents and such... is all this better done over PM?

Details on the drivers would be great - these look very nice and high quality.

Almost everything. Yes, you could choose individual lumen on each mode.

Yes, I just ordered some XM-L2 U2-0D, which are perfect for de-doming. They will be direct copper bonded. The new batch will be limited to 3-4 units.

Yes. There should be a little review on "the other forum" soon.

2.7-6V for the boost-buck with up to 1.5 amps (88-94% efficiency) and 2.7-4.5V for the linear ones with up to 6 amps. There is also boost-buck prototype with up to 2.25 amps, but it's still a early version with lots of bugs. Custom modes are possible.

BTW: Following a new RGBW-XM-L drop-in with a TIR/optic. It is very floody, but the beam quality is quite nice and smooth, even on a white wall. No visible donuts or artefacts.

WOW

that color XM-L looks GREAT!!

awesome, the RGBW-XM-L drop-in with a TIR/optic looks nice. i would like to get on a list for one if and when they become ready to sell.

The quality of these drop-ins looks very impressive! :thumbsup: I'm now subscribed to this thread.

The "Hepta Mule"sounds especially interesting!

Hepta mule....holy cow

How much Lumens do you expect for this?

Quad XPG2 or triple XML2, hmmmm. Could you make a triple XML using a Carclo lens? Or only a mule?
tell us amout the regulated MTG2.

Yeah, I'm interested in a MT-G2 dropin.
Care to share more info?

Dedomed XM-L's use XP-G optics.

I don't, sprechen sie deutsch so I don't know what it all said but on that German Flashaholic site Vinz also had pictures of an XML build with a copper "hull" or shell for the drop-in. Kind of a game changer for me. The work looks impressive, I can't wait to hear or read more. (I only speak Spanish and English)
