First, the bulb drop in Made by 疲皮猴. There was a gap between the head and body, just like the original bulb. I polished the outer ring and narrowed the gap.

Second, I made a adapter for 2*18650s, made of black pom.

Third, found some Z12s and used one as a lanyard ring.


Here comes a convenient usable 9AN.

Sweet! Never owned a 9AN myself, but that looks like quite a nice usable light :thumbsup:

Clean work there, I'm feeling it.

Interesting incan mod. Do you know what bulb was used? Love the crosshair versions! Getting harder to find for sure. I use double 18650's myself in my 9AN's. Excellent run time.

There are various kinds of bulbs can be used in this 9AN, as long as the rated voltage is 7.4v (or around) . The bulb in the pics is 7.2v, 1.15A, 190lm, with 2*18650s the bulb is a litthe supervoltaged but also a little whiter and brighter.

I also love the crosshair version, and the SN of this 9AN is A000099, love it~haha
