MC-E Reflector for mag??

[sailor612]

Anyone know of a good reflector for MC-E emitter (20mm star or 20mm round) for a D mag?
I'm looking for 10 deg or less...but might have to do with something bigger than 10deg....
Thanks ahead of time!

I saw a 10 degree optic for the MC-E somewhere. 36mm across in a hexagon. You'll need a larger reflector for such a narrow beam.

Edit: Found it. 37.5mm at the widest. They say 5 degree but that is 5 degree from center, so 10 degree total.

Just sputter a Mag Reflector, I used Rustoleum Lacquer and it looked and performed great. DarkZero uses Krylon Clear

Or buy a KD or Litho or similar reflector of Orange Peel

Did it make a tight beam?? I'm using it for a underwater light, so I'm tryin to find something that doesn't spill A LOT because I don't want it to cause a "underwater white out" with particles in the water...

Yes, a tight beam with lots of flood... so looks like you need an OPTIC.
TIR Optics should give you a tight beam around 10 degrees.
Gunner12 seems to have the best advice for you.
I was confused by your request for a reflector.

An aspherical lens replacing the clear lens might be another way to go.
As I recall jimjones3630 used one in a Mag with a high power halogen.
Not the usual Aspheric Cree deal where the die image is projected.
Just enough to focus the flood into the center beam.

I'm not sure if having the lens underwater will affect it's focal length(if you use a lens). You can always have a second piece of glass to keep some air for the lens so it focuses correctly(if water affects the focus).
