Re: MacMalkoff! **2ND REDUCTION**

Thanks, Karl. I guess the price is too high, but since the Malkoff Quad is no longer available, and custom machined HAIII hosts aren't growing on trees, I think the price is reasonable.

This will be my last bump for this one. I doubt if the components will lose value over time.

Agreed Don. A tough market right now it seems. It'll turn, hopefully sooner than later and then, someone will wish they had jumped on this when they had the chance.

Meltdown (& Donn),


It was a big decision to part with that kind of cash but I just kept coming back to Donn's post over and over again. Somehow I was taken by the simple hardcore good looks and awesome numbers that this light represents. I guess you could say I couldn't resist! I am really anxious to get this one as I have never even held a multi emitter light let alone owned one. I have several very nice lights by Milky but this will be my first big light! Does this have a UI or is it on high as soon as you pull the trigger?

Thanks,

Gary

Here's a stunning Mac created 1.5-D host, with tailswitch, custom milled tube and finned head, all in HAIII olive drab anodizing. The condition is as new, and the color-matching between the three segments is excellent.

Inside, a Malkoff MagLite Quad Drop-in with 4x Cree Q5 WG emitters. The beam is approximately 10-12 degrees with a nice combination of spot and flood. The Drop-In module is constructed of CNC machined structural aircraft aluminum and has four regulated drivers. The current output is 1150ma per LED on 4-6 D cells. It requires 3.8 volts for regulated operation and the maximum input is 9 volts. The current draw is approximately 3500ma on 6 volts. The LED/faceted Fraen reflector sets are encased in high-temperature black epoxy.

The Malkoff Quad was a brilliant piece of design and execution, but it's been discontinued because Gene couldn't sell it for what it cost to build. Too bad, because it turns any D Maglite into a brilliant torch. I'm guessing at least 1,000 lumens at the emitters.

This one is set up to run on 2x AW C Li-Ion cells, and comes with an adapter tube to hold them. UCL lens.
