I have been playing with my OLD favorit the 6P .

Since using a 3W luxIII drop-in and drilling it out to use 18650´s and using a McE2S for two light levels it has come back to join my EDC rotation .

One night a while back while walking my dog , I droped it on the ground while playing with the dog . I used my other light to find it . That made me relize it was still missing something .

So while on my break at work the other day I came up with this ,

Nice mod!

Now what if the light falls trit down?? You need two or three more! :rock:

How did you install the trit, what tools did you use?

I only put one on because I only had one left . :whistle:


I milled out a slot 2mm wide , 6mm long and 2.5mm deep with a milling machine . The Vial is 1.5mm X 5mm itself . I then glued the vial in with a single compound Plexi-Glass glue .
It is very clear and hardens through UV Light .

I have plans for my L5 when I get some more Vials . :naughty:
