Hey everyone,
Here's an update that is long overdue. I've had this light for about 2 months now and it is fantastic. The body was beautifully modified by Mirage_Man...done in the same style as my aspheric mag
I only have 1 C magclickie because I don't want to buy another one and have to fill all 6 slots with green tritium vials :sick2: (which definitely makes the tailcap look awesome).
The light runs 4 Cree XR-E Q2 WH bin leds. The emitters are directly epoxied to the heatsink. 4 McR19 reflectors + McR centering rings (also done by Mirage_Man...a must have on any tri/quad build!) focus the light. UCL provided by flashlightlens.com
Enough talk...on to the pictures

perfectly centered emitters/reflectors

McGizmo S27-PD, SF Cree E1L, SF Cree L1, quad mag, KL3/M2 body
man this light is BRIGHT
2 peas from the same pod (sorry about the dust!)
here's what the beam looks from ~3 inches on a non reflective surface
the hotspots converge after about a foot and from then on it looks like a normal single led flashlight
Here are some wall shots from ~10 feet. Camera was set on all manual settings
beamshot of quad mag by itself
The WH bin LEDS give an awesome tint...no hint of blue/coldness
SF L1 Cree on high vs quad mag -0EV
SF L1 Cree on high vs quad mag -2EV
Q2 XR-E P60 drop-in vs quad mag -2 EV
The light measures ~14,000 lux@1 meter and pulls ~2.2A from the battery. The LEDs are wired in parallel and direct driven, so each led sees about 500mA. I expect runtime of a tick under 1:30. At this pretty modest drive level, the head still gets warm after being on for 45 seconds and hot after a couple of minutes when not holding. The fins do an excellent job helping to cool down the light. I guesstimate the light is putting out a tad over 500 lumens
Thanks for looking
