TK40 in a mag

[J.C.F.]

hi all
has anyone tried to put the guts of a tk40 into a 2d maglite

:toilet::poof: :whoopin:

thats stupid............and thats all it is.

we have all emitters,heatsinks,drivers,optics,batterie holders etc. so ideas like that should not come up.....but yet :crackup:

A TK40 is pretty much just a commercial version of a MC-E MagMod. Why you would want to take the TK40's guts to put it in to a Mag is beyond me.

I'd also say that it's not a good idea except that the stock TK40 is so darn fugly that I really would prefer a Mag host.. As long as you could keep the TK's awesome floody beam profile, I'd totally go for it.

just build it and post up the result , i hate the TK40 :thumbsdow but in a mag host :thumbsup: i look forward to the pics cheers DocD

it would probably work to make a nice "sleeper" light but it sounds costly to try.

I was thinking the same too!, I would like to have a nice 'sleeper' just to give a massive surprise to an unsuspecting person!

That's ok, I have ask plenty of stupid questions in my time here.:o

Hey, at least stupid questions are free. :)

It sound like your on the way to becoming a modder with the way you like to tinker.

 

[Illum]

I don't think any cost-oriented modder here will give you a nod off the bat about gutting a light to use on a seperate body which frankly has very little additional metal to work with.

Now if the mag body was a solid barstock and you have access to something that can chuck and turn it then maybe it could work. Since the internals of the TK40 is not well understood its hard to know for sure what you'll come up against. :)

yes, im sorry. this made my day anyway :D

There are no stupid questions. Only stupid answers.

I too don't care for how TK40 looks.

But since affording one is WAY beyond my means I'll never know.

Sounds like a fun project.
