6P Modder Claims

[sonrider657]

What do you think of the claims of this Modder and the "345 lumen" Surefire 6P's he is selling?

The maker used to be well known for mag mods. The emitter he's using in the referenced light probably is 345 at the source, but not out the front. I have a Thrunite drop in, and it's probably about 200 lumens out the front.

As to whether or not its a legit 345L OTF... its definitely possible with an MCE or P7.

I have machined the interior of the Surefire body, to accept the use of a premium quality Lithium Ion rechargeable battery. This machining operation left a lip of metal that trap the battery and make it immoveable.
No matter how strong is the recoil the battery is trapped inside the body with no place to go. Others lights allow the battery to move forward under recoil and batter the lamp.

That sounds like it's going to damage the battery. He's probably driving in the ballpark of 1 amp, so I'd go with those calling 345 emitter lumens (Also, such a nice round number...)

The site is back up. The LED is an R-5.
