I had no idea of the shear number of different high $$$ light systems available!
I hesitate to call them flashlights because some of them are so much more, I found one on E-bay (Arc something or other) that is user programable to different modes. I never dreamed that anything like this existed much less for around $100.00. Not to mention the $3000.00 Beast from Surefire, simply amazing.
I'm curious about how some of you got started modifing your own lights?
Was this something that you just stumbled on or did you want something bigger and brighter than the next guy so you started cutting and soldering, were you bored on some winter night and thought "I wonder what would happen if I chuck this up in my trusty lathe and open it up so I can cram some bigger batteries in it?" :huh2:
I'm really curious about how this got started?
I'm a weapons guy myself and have always been interested in weapon mounted lights and now with the talk of all of these different mods you guys got me thinking.:thinking: I'm starting to feel a little like Dr. Frankenstein..... "now if I cut this here and weld this there and hammer this over there and force these in here.... It's ALIVE!!!!!
Well not quite but it does make me think! :devil:
So how did you get started in this?
