That's my beat up EDC U2, just take the HA off and polish it.
The beam is 10 McR-17XR, will take beam shot outside.

Wow. Is that thing fan cooled?
Yes it's fan cooled, the head is too hot to touch after one minutes if no fan.

Thank you.
When the battey fully charge, it draw 2 amp, 1.8 amp after that.
10 McR-17XR refectors.
It's does get very hot about one minutes, that's why it's fan cooled.

Great work!

I have one of Georges Big drivers and was going to do a 10 cree with XR27's but haven't found a suitable host.

I like your handle!

I'm suprised your poor dog didn't catch fire.
Question: How are you driving the LED's ?
