SOLD If you're looking to buy the perfect aluminum McLux III-PD, this may be your listing. Up for sale is a mint condition McLux III-PD in black HA--no scratches, dings or blemishes of any type. The twisting action is silky smooth and the piston drive has just the right resistance. It includes McGizmo's Ti bezel and Ti clip, green trit in the PD, plus I'll also add an SS three-slot bezel with three trits ready for mounting.

But what really sets this light apart is the "lottery winning" U-bin upgrade it received from the original T-bin LED. One U-bin (UXOJ) was hand-selected for maximum brightness from a group that was available. You can read about and see the whole upgrade at the link below, but the bottom line results were as follows: "New LUX measures are 90 LUX @ 1 meter on low and 1940 LUX @ 1 meter on high! This brings my gain to 540LUX over stock TYOJ or about a 40% increase in brightness! Keep in mind drive levels are still stock!"

Price is $325 for PP cash, or +4% for CC. This includes overnight shipping CONUS. First to post "I'll take it" with no questions asked gets the light. Thanks for looking. And here's the link to the upgrade story:

That's a very good price for this light, not only because of the highly desirable emitter upgrade, but also because the SS bezel and three tritiums cost about $50 by themselves. Someone is going to get a great deal on this!

If I didn't spend so much on here last night, I would be all over this one. NICE

Oh, NOW you've gone and done it, Dutch! I hope you realize that posting "this should not still be here" is the curse of any sales thread! ;-)

Could you post a pic? The thread you referenced just showed the head.

Thanks, Charles.
BTW, friends, this is my first McAnything. I have been salivating (That means drooling, Maynard.) over a PD for a long time. It will get a week or so in-house use and night stand detail use before losing its mint status to EDC duty.

Thanks Charles!
I returned from a business trip last night looking for an attempt to deliver card. I $heepishly asked the wife, "Anything for me?" Nothing. I checked between the front entrance door and the storm door and there was the package. The contents were mint as advertised.
Thanks again,
Cobweb Hunter.
