Sold/Expired CLOSED... for now 2x 400 Lumen 3D Maglite's with Cree XP-G R4 @ 1.4A

[jasonck08]

FS: Two Brand new modded 3D Maglites with Cree XP-G-R4 @ 1.4A.

The first 2 have sold! If you'd like one, PM me to reserve one. I'll have 2 more avilable late next week.

Parts:
-3D Maglite host (Black & Pewter)
-D - DHS HAIII Heatsink (modded to fit XPG)
-XP-G R4 (From Nailbender) on 8mm board
-AMC 7135 Driver @ 1.4Amps (3.6v-4.5v)
-Artic Alumina Epoxy used to mount XPG
-Artic Alumina used between heatsink and Mag body
-Spring slightly stretched to accomidate flat cells
-Glass Lens is also included

These are great new maglites that I just built. No corners cut when making them. I've sold quite a few 3D and 1D P7 modded Mag's here in the past and have excellent feedback from selling those. Based off JTR's Testing a XPG-R5 puts out ~440 lumens @ 1.4A. R4 bin is about 5% less than that. So this XP-G, R4 should be putting out about 420 lumens @ the LED. :thumbsup:

Are these still focusable? Would love to see a small tight
hotspot.

What type of cells should be used?

I like these.

The Pewter is yours Sarge.
I'd like to know a little more first.

Yes they are still very focusable. They throw a good 100 yards easy when focused to a spot. :thumbsup:

Regarding what cells should be used... You can use either Alkaline or Ni-mh cells. I run eneloop AA's with D adaptors in them.

Just an FYI, but based on playing with a couple of Malkoff's XPG drop-ins, they beat the pants off a Cree XR-E R2 behind an aspheric.

:thumbsup: Since you're OK with it Kid9P I'll take the Pewter!

These should focus and the voltage is good for primary or for NiMH cells.
These big AccuEvolution LSD's I have should work well.

EDIT: Been trying to post this for better than 10 minutes but my WiFi is killing me! Must be a lot of microwaves being used nearby.

Also thought I'd mention that if you +$20 then I'll throw in an FM Aluminum MOP (more of a Light OP IMO) reflector that helps smooth out the beam to perfection. Same reflectors that FM sold here for $25+ shipping.

It's a deal!

I can swap between the 2 based on what I need. :thumbsup:

Re: 2x 400 Lumen 3D Maglite's with Cree XP-G R4 @ 1.4A

Thanks. Also I'll mention that for $5 extra I'll throw in 4x AA to D Eneloop Adaptors.

The Pewter is sold, but I still have the black Mag avilable! Bettery hurry!

Re: 2x 400 Lumen 3D Maglite's with Cree XP-G R4 @ 1.4A

I don't think you can make one of these cheaper than what you are selling them for! Excellent deal.

Shipped same day via Priority Mail w/ Tracking #. :thumbsup:

And your right, I'm not making much off selling these. I just have a lot of spare parts, and thought I'd throw togeter a couple of mags. :twothumbs

So if one of these adaptors is used, what do you use for the extra space in the tube? Dummy cells?

Re: 2x 400 Lumen 3D Maglite's with Cree XP-G R4 @ 1.4A

How would one of these run on 4 NiMh C cells? Or would 3 D cells be better?

No, you don't need anything else for a spacer. This is what It looks like. You use a regular AA in the case and it extends it to D length and width. The only slight problem you have is the last cell making contact with the spring in the tail cap. An easy solution I use is to put a quarter (25c) at the end of the last cell so it makes contact with the spring.

How would one of these run on 4 NiMh C cells? Or would 3 D cells be better?

You want to keep the voltage <4.5v. So 4C cells is probably not a good idea. I'd recommend using 3x NiMh or 3x D Alkaline cells with this light. Thanks.

I'll take the black one. Do you have a spare aspheric lens too? pm sent

Wow, these are really nice. Runtime on my three 10,000mAh LSD D-Cells would be fantastic. Let me know if you make some more, OK?
What kind of runtime are you getting with the adapters?

 

[Sgt. LED]

Re: SOLD: 2x 400 Lumen 3D Maglite's with Cree XP-G R4 @ 1.4A

These should be regulated for a while then start to slowly dim out over a long tail IF I remember the 7135 correctly.

The 10,000 LSD will be excellent but running it on AA's seems like a waste of a big battery tube. Hey, to each their own!

Maybe a couple more could be made?

I'm out of XP-G LED's will need to order some more. I'll try to make a couple avilable next week. Thanks for your interest.

With 3xfully charged Eneloops I should get about 70-90 minutes runtime. Plenty of runtime for most uses. Now if your going camping or something, you'd definitly want to use some D cells so you can get 6-7hrs runtime.
