Hello all,
I put a bit of work into this one, its a really neat build. The reason I am looking to sell it is to free up some funds for something else. So here is a description:
- Silver novatac USA with extended button
- Lux-rc 333 triple led board with neutral (4000k) cree XPG emitters. Beautiful tint on these. This board also has a red micro led which serves as a status indicator, battery indicator and can even be a great low low mode.
- A custom heatsink was machined to house the lux rc board and optics out of aluminum.
- The reflector end of the light was bored and faced inside to provide a flat surface for the triple/heatsink. The heatsink was secured to the inside of the housing with arctic alumina adhesive for good thermal transfer.
- Mil-spec multi strand copper wire with heat resistant silicone insulation was used with the positive lead soldered directly to the positive spring for minimal resistance.
- Carclo clear narrow beam optic.
- The stock heatsink/ battery pcb was retained on the battery tube side giving a completely stock look inside while retaining the functionality of the momentary switch input.
This thing puts out a wall of beatufully tinted light and has great low mode options.
The bad - I accidentally ground down a small area of the interior threads where the battery tube screws into the head the width of a small drill bit. This does not affect functionality at all, I just wanted to disclose.
Here are some pics:
I would like $205 shipped USPS priority.
Thank you for looking at my thread and please ask any questions as I may have missed something.

explains the user interface on page 3. Thank you again Isaacl. Just to clarify this light is using the lux-rc board UI, not the novatac driver. It has been removed.
