UV mini Mag?

[Lurchensteen]

My question for you all, is how hard would it be to turn a Mini Mag into a UV light. Is this something that one can do by myself? Is it even worth doing or should I just buy one. thanks

It would take $28 and a couple of minutes to install: http://www.batteryjunction.com/miulvikitwi1.html

You could buy that, but you are probably better off getting one of these:

or this, with the host:

It might be a little below the maglite quality wise, but it is probably brighter.
If you already have something that can take a p60, then you can just put the dropin in.

I have a Brinkman with a cree Alpha WC Q5 drop-in, in it would that work.

I've got an old NiteIze 3 LED drop in that I soldered 3 UV LEDs from Dealextreme into. It works pretty well, but NiteIze uses some kind of weird hi-temp solder that was a bear to melt

How did you stand the fumes from the melting metal? Depends how bright you want it to be.

You have a what? I think it's a Lighthound P60 Q5-WC Cree drop-in module that takes up to 9V in your Brinkman. I should know as I sold it to ya . And yes, any P60-sized module will fit in your Brinkman.

I'm gonna agree with a few of the others in suggesting the terralux UV drop-in for the minimag. It's quick and easy to install, a great mod for a beginner such as yourself

I read what was on the drop-in.
