Let's see those NovaTacs!

Mine is slightly personalised...sporting a stainless steel PEU bezel (3x green trits) and GitD ring, I also replaced the polycarb lens with a nice UCL one.

Anybody else added the personal touch to their new EDC?

Very nice!

I just threaded a GITD lanyard on my clip thingy...

Wow that's pretty cool. Where do you get the new bezel? Also is using UCL better than the stock window?

Just ordered my 120P, should get it soon!

Too bad you buy a $150 flashlight and they put a plastic lens in it. They could have at least done pyrex..

How hard was it replacing the lens?

That's a very sharp looking light now!

Where's the pocketclip?

Here is both of mine,no trits yet.no clip using a ss lanyard ring from Burman.The 85p kept as stock.

Crappy pic, but you get the idea. 120P with 17670 HDS tube, GITD o-ring, extended button and UCL. Still waiting for a decent pocket/lanyard clip.

Bezel from here...

You'll have to source the tritiums elswhere though, as 4sevens does not stock them anymore - I believe that CPFer "lurveleven" will be getting some that fit the PEU bezel this month.

And I am told that the UCL lens alows more light to be transmitted and I know it is also a lot more scratch resistant.

Very easy to do, just removed the bezel (no locktite on mine) and dropped the new lens in there, it was the same thickness as the Polycarb one, so no messing about with different o-rings or whatever.

Got mine from here (22.8mm x 1.90mm)...

(BTW, don't like pocket clip, I won't use it).

Nice set up Sunny from Q/land. :naughty:

I am waiting for NovaTac to start selling the Tactical tail clickys seperately and I will do this with one of my extension tubes (Jim S told me that they would be available later on in the year...best of both worlds IMO, fully programable but with Tactical clicky). :thumbsup:

Where's the pocketclip?

Isn't the polycarbonate window that it comes with supposed to be very strong? How strong would the UCL replacement be? (Is it pyrex?)

Thank you very much for this info, just ordered the lens, really looking forward to getting a glass lens in my 120P :thumbsup:.

Derek Dean,cool pics thanks for posting.

All the hi-tech terms for plastic are really cool. "polycarbonate" "polymer"

The stock plastic window should be stronger than both UCL and pyrex. The issue is how much light passes.

Nice job on the clip Alex. It looks like you might have your light set up to send signals into outer space. What a nifty idea, using your NovaTac to communicate with extra terrestrials.

Yeah, but those little Martians won´t answer me. Maybe i need a bigger light.
