Show your D and C mag mods

Here's mine so far:



Left: 2D Mag623
Middle: 4D Tri-P7 (DSWOI) ala Der Wichtel Kit
Right: 2D P7 (DSXPJ) Mag with 2" FM Deep Bezel (Der Wichtel Buck Converter)

Received a gorgeous HA Mag 2C host from Bruce on Saturday
and this is what I came up with.

SICK! Nice use of copper to hold the circuit:rock: Looks like it's grounded too.

For that idea, the credit goes to member Download ;)

A couple :)

No fair Mac.....lol. :grin2:

All beautiful btw.

That is so unfair ... comparing Porsche with a Ford compact :P

More Mag porn please Mac :poke::twothumbs

Amazing quality of workmanship on show!

Whoa!!! Just realised I have Mag sitting under the seat of my pickup......
Is a KD drop in agood place to start?

Pete lovecpf

My current favorite (care of Lambda)...







Revolution 3C: 2D cut down to a switchless 3C. D-bin SSC P7 in KD reflector with custom heat sink. 4-stage (off/low/medium/high) twisty head - high is direct driven, medium (300mA) and low (50mA) are resistored. Powered by 3x AccuPower LSD C cells. Three dots of glowpoxy around the body, just below the head, and a large dot on the pressure relief valve on the tail cap. Tarted up with a SS bezel and MagRingD, care of download.

A group shot for size reference...



Stock 2D, Revolution 3C, FM 700L (3x 17670), FM 1D

You guys make me sick. I need to revamp mine

Is that it, nobody has any more C/D mag mods?

There are plenty more, all you need to do is search the forum :)

You need more, its 100 grand just in my picture, ok maybe in peso since I am in Mexico. :D

Ok, I'll bite. This is my take on a 2C LED Maglite. I finished it today using a whole bunch of spare parts I found in my flashlight drawer. I began with a pewter 2C Maglite, removed the bulb stem so the H22A CHS heatsink could fit in, wired up a Lowes TF 2C Cree boost driver, then sanded the top of the heatsink flat to mount a low-vF Q2 5A 16mm round board. Crees don't focus nicely in a Maglite reflector, so I trimmed the cam off, stripped the reflective finish off with Easy-Off oven cleaner, then dyed it black with RIT dye to make room for and serve as a backdrop for the optic. The optic is a 10 degree Khatod purchased from DX. The plastic window was replaced with a 52mm glass window from KD. Runs cool and looks unique. My previous conservative guess was around 120 OTF lumens, however current measurements show it's brighter than that...

Edit: I just took some measurements and did some quick calculations. Vbatt is 2.47V and current at the tailcap is 1.12 amps. Voltage across the LED is 3.12, and assuming a circuit efficiency of 80%, that would mean the LED sees 709mAh. Minimum flux of a neutral white Q2 XR-E is 87.4 lm/W, and assuming an optical efficiency of 80%, that would equate to just north of 140 OTF lumens running Accupower LSD C-cells that haven't been charged in over a year!



This is just the first of 3 2C Maglite mods I have planned for this week. When the parts arrive, one will sport a K2 TFFC and the other, a P7.

You got some beautiful light there.
What's the name of the laser engraver you used?
Do you mind sharing some engraving setting's on type 2 anodizing?

The XX-Ray: 5 neutral white MC-E in a Mag 2.25D powered by 4 IMR 18650 - constant regulated 3000 lumen


Unnamed Mag 2C triple cool white MC-E, 2x IMR 26500 - 2100 lumen


Another in pewter, Ledil Boomerang spot reflectors: - 2100 lumen


A Mag 2C neutral white MC-E "light engine" from DX parts. Each driver drives half the MC-E (2P). Powered by 2x18650 LiFePO4 cells.
I don't have a pic of the business end, but fully assembled, it looks like any other single MC-E, 53mm reflector Mag Mod in plain black 2C. Over driving each half of the MC-E, it's probably > 600 lumen.

(Wish I had posted before Mac :mecry:I feel silly even bringing this after his ante.)

I'm loving all these MC-E mods :devil:

Had to happen :D:poof:
