Sold/Expired *Gots Parts?* Mini Edc Second Run with P7/MC-E Leds And Backlit Tailcap Button

Update - With consistent application of a rat ******* file, the outer edge of a Ledil Boom can be rounded down. Filed almost to the inner reflective surface, the Boom will fit up inside the bezel of the Trustfire HCU-M7. The result is a near perfect beam, lots of spill and generous distribution towards the center. %100 donut free.

I've used my light like this for the past ~5months. It is very nice.


Wow! I gotta try that :hitit:
I have boom reflectors here too :devil:

I guess i will be starting the groupbuy again :faint:
 
Getting a Quark AA/123 Holster in anticipation. Should fit perfectly.
 
Okay folks..

I am at the mercy of DX to supply me the hosts that i need
to make these lights for you all. The only one they have available
has a 3-Mode driver that will run from primaries or rechargables.
It has High/Mid/Strobe modes Only.. The light is the same otherwise.
There will still be a Direct Drive options for those that want to run
AW or Imr cells in there for a true Monster of a pocket light 🙂

If no one has a problem with a simple 3-Mode or DD setup, I can
start this groupbuy shortly. For those that want more driver functions,
We have to wait for DX to start carrying them again 🙁 I dont know
how much longer we have to wait.. But i am checking everyday :sssh:

So that it! You want to start the Groupbuy with the 3-Mode and DD ?
Chime in Folks!! :wave:

I mean... That another groupbuy would be awesome..... Yeah... (Come on DX! Next day shipping!!) MAN! That 2 mode P7 with OP reflector looks nice 😀 :naughty:

Would you settle for an MC-E :sssh:
Its kinda tough modifying all those reflectors for P7's :huh:
 
.... I like P7's.... A P7 has more output though, right?

It has about 10-15% more output...
But comes out to about the same with it
having a larger dome than an MC-E.
That means the MC-E is better suited for
the small reflector in that little light than
the P7 is 😎 PM me for more details 🙂

A few thoughts...

Previously, you said the DD means no illuminated tailcap. But this 3-mode would have the illuminated tailcap option?

Also... I kinda favor the P7, but what I'd really like would be an SST-50 (and maybe even SST-90) option... obviously raising the cost accordingly.

(Since some of you may be scratching your heads over the notion of an SST-90 in a CR123 light, or fixing to remind me that I won't get 9A with the voltage sag from even an IMR16340, let me explain: If you completely don't care about the beam profile (or prefer even floodier), the larger die means lower Vf at the same current, and in DD, Vf is everything. I don't expect to drive it twice as hard or anything, but every bit helps.)

Well.... In that case, I will explore more options for you folks :thumbsup:
Give me a little time to put together some ideas on other drivers
and led choices.. Maybee this will be the Swiss Army of all lights
with a whole lot of choices 😱

As for a tailcap led.. I honestly dont know until i have a light in hand
to test out the capabilities.
