HAPPY BIRTHDAY MR-X!
5 years old, July 2008.

Much thanks to Burnt_Retinas and Rothrandir for making the MR-X a reality. This is a real milestone for LEDs.

Yo, drop me an email if you make em, count me in for 1, although I am pretty busy lately to drop by your place.

Let tell you guys the legendary MR-X and PocketMate-W are awesome. No words can describe them when I first tested them. Even with the blinds pulled down during day time the beam is so intense that it turns day in to night /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif.

I supply the host. I would go for a PocketMate-X instead. I always dig for variable. XYOx will be my choice!

If the new MR-X lights have adjustable brightness settings, I would be in for one. I am thinking that I would like to run it off of Pila 168A cells, so would an MR-X in a C-cell body be possible?

2X 18500 with a protection circuit in a 2C m*G is one sweet setup. Or 3x CR123 with a rubber hose sleeve

a tri-Ubin setup puts out aprox. same lumens as MR-X X3T with a smaller footprint. MRX will destroy tri-Ubin for throw.

"X" bin, I'm in. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
I like the sugestions of 2c, rechargable option, and variable brightness.
Not another light... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mpr.gif

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yellowlaugh.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yellowlaugh.gif I'm trying to barter a perpetual power source capable of 4A drain, that is the size of a CR2 battery... from this spaceship that appeared in my dreams. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif



Good to get some more input here. Yes, I am reasonably keen on a smaller 2C form factor also. Rechargeable, variable output, X-BEAST... I have yet to hear back from that darn supplier of mine regarding availability of the LED so.... at the moment, this is still vapourware /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif
