Just received a 5 mode TR-801 Q5 from DX for my helmet light, and it came with a smooth reflector. Item description said OP, which is one of the reasons why I chose it. The smooth that it came with has a very bright hotspot (which is nice for some things) but not ideal for riding. Even at 50 feet out, it has only a 4 foot diameter bright spot with dimmer spill, so I'm looking to smooth this out some.

Anybody know of an OP reflector that fits in the TR-801, either from DX or another compatible manufacturer? Or is it different lenses I'm looking for?
 
Don't some people get a good DIY OP surface on reflectors by spraying them with shellac?
