PR-T = PRe-Thanksgiving?

[donn_]

I think it must. The mailman came today, and took away a Milkified 4xRebel PR-T, and dropped off this little sweetie:

I've been reading about this mod for 2 years, and finally scored one. The L1-PR-T-TVOJ/917. What a classy little light!

Here she is with a couple of her new McGizmo stable-mates:

On Top, a regular L1, with an Aleph 1 head holding a dumb mule LE which has been modded with a U2SWOH. On the bottom, a PR TYOJ/750 riding on a classic E2 and a 2-stage Maxlite tail.

Here are a few more recent additions to my McGizmo herd:

Top to bottom: HD45 with a Diamond Dragon/Flupic driven at 2.2A. It's the brightest HD45 I've seen so far. The XX1T which used to live in the HD45 now occupies the PR sitting on the 3x123 TK body directly below, and is powered at 1A. At the bottom, another bare PR with an unknown LuxIII/917. Out of at least a dozen PRs and PR-Ts, this is the only one which didn't have the emitter bin written on the inside of the head.

Great lights, Don. :thanks: for all the fun!:twothumbs

Sweet lights! A blast from the past. Thanksgiving, here we come!

I like the swivel belt clip tab on there! :wave:

 

[donn_]

Me too. It's my first one of those (on a flashlight), too. Dozens of Alephs, and not a one came with the tab.

 

[McGizmo]

Hopefully you have a swivel belt clip and wall hanger so you can take advantage of it.

The belt clip was inadvertently left out of the package, but it'll be here next week.

Somewhere, in my piles of rubble, I have others, designed for cell phones and such, and some of them may also work.

A piece of PVC and 5 minutes on the Foredom, and I have a perfectly functional wall hanger for the boathouse:

I'll make fancier ones in Mahogany for the house.

EDIT: Can tabs still be acquired? I have at least a few lights I'd like to equip. I think I recall brass ones as well.

 

[McGizmo]

I would guess that Berkeleypoint.com and the Shoppe might still have some tabs and components but it is a guess. The tabs are nickel plated brass. There were also some tab collars I had made both for the Mini Mag and SF E-series battery tubes.

 

[donn_]

Thanks. I checked.

Berkeleypoint only has plastic, but the Shoppe has them in brass, and is OS on the EN plated version.

Nice lights! The classic Mcluxs are still my favorite but I'm sure you guys already know that with all the ones I've been stashing away.

That X bin PR head cleaned up pretty good & looks ok compared to the other one. :twothumbs

Still have that one in my stable as well. Tried selling it awhile back, but glad I had no bites!
