Hey Mark,
Seeing Callum with those lights reminds me of when I was 6...I was playing with my dad's knife out on the ranch & my mom got upset & told me I could not play with knives. So my dad took me out back, gave me his .22 semi auto pistol & 100 rounds of ammo & sent me off to practice. Before anyone talks about irresponsibility, I was better versed in gun safety at 6 than most adults are today. Callum will know more about "light" safety and sound lithium practices than most people twice his age...

Manker E14vn with Nichia 219C 4000k emitters, resting on top of an Astrolux S1 w/XP-L 3D emitter.






The Manker/Astrolux E14, S41, S41S, and S1 are impressive lights for fantastic low prices.

Keeping in line with the "Budget" theme DHart. I do like me some Manker/AstroLux/BLF's. IMHO they are some of the best values in the flashlight world.

On to the pics. This is a BLF A6 I got from Scout24 a few days ago. I had the 18350 body laying around & the McGizmo clip. So I swapped the bodies on the light I got from him and added the clip. I think it turned out great. In a strange way, it kinda has a Muyshondt look to it. OK, maybe it is just me.

This one I tried to focus on the screws.

Well that was fun. Headed out to play with it in the yard. :)

EDIT: Yeah I know, the clip cost twice as much as the light. lol

Did you drill and tap holes for the clip on your BLF? I have a 18350/18650 Convoy and the stock pocket clip that screws in between the switch and body is rubbish. It leaves half of the body sticking out. Your clip looks like the answer.

Hey red, you would have to ask Scout24 exactly how he did it. He used the factory holes, and looks like all he had to do was Tap the holes. The threads fit the screws that come with a McGizmo flawlessly for sure. I really like the way it turned out. Nice and robust clip that holds tight to your pants. Great for a light that is going to be carried in a active situation.

Very cool idea Str8. That one belongs in the Lego thread.


Received this book today and thought some of PK's newest gear would look cool gracing the cover of a book laced with his classic stuff.

Lost this little guy over a year ago. Somehow it dropped out of a hidden crevice in my work vehicle today, and reappeared. Good Score!
