* ArcLS HAIII CR2Twist'R *DONE*

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

No switch-tube will be made. That model is different from the MicroCR2 Tube which I will be making in this run. Also, the switches I use are VERY HARD TO FIND (Mini-Moder will tell you all about it !!

Priority will also be to annodize AS MUCH as possible, so maybe only 4 Bare models MAX.

This CR2 tube would be interesting with a 3.6v cell on a FluPIC board in your Arc LS...! The brightness is great on a TX0H/TW0H ! You can read how I did the FluPIC mod by clicking the link in my signature below... There are a few more CR2tubes to reserve before I hit the 2 dozen mark... But after that, you can keep posting, but I'll try to stop at 36 max.... (just to keep this single run of CR2 tubes unique and give your Arc Tube collection a bit more value....)

Cheers !!

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

For my switch (not related to this project), I had to purchase a whole light to get the switch out of it. The quest continues for the perfect switch...


BTW: Bombelman, I am in for both a HAIII and a Bare!

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

I'm in for one HA3. Sweet idea,btw. Thanks.

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

And then MOSPORT asked: "wanted to ask if the CR2 twisty outside diameter will match first run or non-first run ARC LS bodies ?"

Very good question...
First Run Heads and Tubes are 25mm
most other heads and tubes are 24mm

I EDC a First Run head (25mm) and a 123tube (24mm).
It looks nice, and you don't even notice it untill I tell you it's a mm smaller (OD).
But an LS2 (24mm) on First Run tube (25mm) is not so hot...

So my CR2tubes will be 24mm OD when finished.
I'll manufacture them maybe 24.4mm, since the Anno will take about 0,..mm from the total OD....

I'll post pics of these 2 different setups later today.

Cheers !!

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

I'm almost ashamed to ask...... will the tubes be O-ring sealed?

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

I think 24mm OD will please everyone, can't wait to see those pics!

Hope the remaining packs will be reserved soon so the list can be finalized.

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

RAF Groungcrew:

Yes, I will include 1 O-ring for each CR2Tube sold.
I have to think about lube yet...
But 1 split ring of 0.292" dia will be included FREE of charge.
I will not attach it, if you don't want to, but it is included.

What's not included is the Chemkote coating that the stock Arcs have inside the tube.... You just make sure you remove primaries from the tube when not using it...

p.s. don't you RAF guys want to buy a whole batch of Arc lights ? Maybe we can get P.G. to restart the LS-line . . . . .gna, gna, gna ...

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

Please add me to the list

Thanks,

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

I wasn't aware that the RAF wanted to buy a bunch of ARCs, naturally, I only see things from the bottom, looking up, but something like an ARC AAA-P for everyone would be great (I've got 2 already that I paid for).

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

I'll take 2 in HA III.

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

I'll take another making two total!

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

I would like two in HA3 :thumbsup:

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

Thanks for ignoring my post, to make sure it's nothing personal, I'll take two.

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

Ooops, guess I was too busy reading and replying to the posts regarding the switches.

Anyway, you've been placed on the list for 2 !

Still 6 available !!

Cheers !!

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

I gotta have one of these! How did it take me so long to find this thread?

My LSH is dying for this... sign me up for one!

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

I'll take one in HA3. Thanks for doing this!

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

LouRoy, you have not read/replied my PM from friday....

Re: ArcLS HAIII CR2 Twisties to be sold soon...

Make mine a total of (2) two HA III units. The ARC LS is one of my favs and this will make the list complete.
