I can't say enough about this light, and how perfect it is for the Cree XR-E mod...Yes, I'm not the first to try this mod...I was inspired by other CPFer's that paved the way.
I modded two of the old black Q3's for my friend Ed (Led_Experimenter) and Ed was kind enough to send me a new Q3 in titanium type II ano. The 17670 cell extender is the real deal, 6AL-4V Titanium...Its been quite a long time, since I've cut any 1mm pitch threads, but it came back in short order...
If the heatsink is made .330" high, and you use a star, or round base XR-E...the light will have some focus adjustment, and it remains under the pressure of the bezel o-ring...It's pretty cool...
I hope you like...
