I'm builing my last maglite, but for some reasons I forgot some careful consideration.
The Host is a Nascar 3D Maglite, so I don't modify anything who is visible outside.
I will use for this size of flashlight the big F-cell Li-Fe do security concerns, for example, "if I leave the flashlight turned on..."
I got a rebel reflector for good throw, the backside ~13mm depper than the old design! I thought "no problem", I can mount the driver between Switch and the two 32900 Li-Fe batteries. I measured the 32900, hell they are each 94mm long! --> no more space for the driver.
The mag-switch is shortened on each side, now total 22.5mm height.
The Wichtel 9A-Driver with is described with 13mm height, measured with cables 15.5mm.
If I make the heatsink like the draft, the Cu-heatsink is only 13mm thick, thats problay not enough for a SST-90/SSR-90.
What should I do?
thanks, Peter
