33mm reflector for P7

[meatshieldChris]

Anyone know of a source for a 33mm max diameter aluminum reflector to use with a P7? I'm making a custom heatsink to go behind the emitter, so it doesn't neccicarily need to come with one. Wouldn't mind a 22-24mm either. DX isn't comming up with much in that size. Could I use a Xenon or Cree reflector drilled out to fit?

what type of beam are you looking for?

 

[meatshieldChris]

Looking for a decent balance between flood and throw, maybe more towards flood. At this point I'll take anything, because I havn't found anything in the size I'm looking for, except for an aluminum 33mm Xenon reflector, but I think the hole in the reflector is a touch too big for a P7.

The very common p60 reflector from the chinese (DX) drop-ins (CREE) does pretty well with a P7 after it is drilled out to fit.

You end up with a big hotspot and lots of spill.
The donut is easy to tune out.

here is a beamshot at about 50ft, the hotspot is roughly 12ft across

thanks, that's perfect. Is that the reflector that fits into a Surefire 6P?

Yes, it came from one of the DX cree drop ins for a 6p size light.

That looks like the one I'll go with then. I can't find any dimensions online, could you give me the bezel end diameter if you've got it? Gonna plug it into my design before I go ordering.

the large diameter on the reflector is about 26.5mm.

If you need a CAD model of one let me know tomorrow.

I would very much appreciate a CAD model of it!
