Sold/Expired SPF: PICS ADDED - DEFT HO (High Output) R2 FTP/Enthusiast hybrid

[Hammer Train]

First off, I am selling this light out of necessity, otherwise it would not be for sale
These are highly sought after and I think it won't last long!

It is in A1 new condition, and is one of only 3 high output models offered.
See here for more details (post number 52):

In this thread the HO models are described as:

'The high output R2s are priced higher because the drivers are harder to assemble and they have a proprietary copper core mcpcb. The area under the die is directly soldered to copper. I also tried to use the best of the lenses that I made for these. This is sort of a hybrid between the old model and the new'. The driver in the HO model is also a bit special, read the thread for more info...

This particular light has the highest lux output of the 3 HO's that were offered and has a simply incredible amount of throw!

I have also filled the tail with G10 gid powder mixed with 2ton epoxy and then also added 20mmx2mm red trit, topped with more 2ton epoxy to protect it. This is so that the light can be easily seen in the dark and is something I have started to do with all my lights.

I paid $249 + $60tax + $37.75 shipping = $346.75

I'd like to get back what I paid as I know it's worth it! So $346.75 or the equivalent in £GBP / EUR (according to www.xe.com) will include shipping by Royal Mail (EMS style) trackable insured delivery.

Hammertrain - what a great sale!!!

Normally, I'd be all over this like a rash with Paypal locked and loaded, but not this month for probably the same reasons you are making the sale :-(

Good luck on a good price for a wonderful torch from a stand up and deserving seller.

Free Bump!!!!

( I'll bet this is gone the next time I look at this thread. )

Cheers.

I would like one but I have just paid saabluster for a DEFT FTP. :mecry: BTW, how do you know that this particular light has the highest lux output of the 3 HO's that were offered? If so, how much lux does it put out compared to the other two? Thanks!

Re. lux - I only found this out after purchasing it as I originally asked for a warm one but that was already taken, and then Michael let me know that this one had the highest output. Needless to say I was very happy when I heard this
Not sure why this hasn't sold yet, I stayed up all night to grab it when the sale opened and it's one of only 3 HO models?

OMG the price is raised again! How exactly did you modify this light and can you show us some pictures on the modifications? :thanks:

I will post some pics up later today. It's not modified as such as these lights can't be made any better IMO! It just has glo-powder and a trit added.
Price raised? Oh, you mean the $6.75 I added on? That was because I wanted to list it for what I paid, if it's deal breaker for anyone then I'm sure it could be taken off again! Will add some pics soon...
