Mod Fenix L1D for max only?

mbirds · Jan 22, 2008

Is there a simple, preferably temporary way to modify a Fenix LXD so it will not change levels with a quick press? I want to temporarily set one up so with the head tightened it is max only and won't go to strobe if I use the momentary off.

Thanks.

EDIT: I just realized this should have gone in the mods forum, but I can't figure out how to move or delete the whole post, sorry....

I don't think there is a way

would have to modify/swap the driver.

use 14500 and twist the head to 2nd level.
with this cell all levels are the same.

Yep, that'll do it. But make sure to use the 3.7v Li-Ion variety, not the LiFePO4 kind.

With the head loose even if you use a 3.7 V battery it will lose the low and medium levels but it will still go into SOS mode after a couple of clicks.

And IMO with the head tightened there's no way to avoid the strobe.

Shoot, I was getting excited about the excellent li-ion idea. Oh, well, no big deal. Was just looking for a way to have a sort of tactical mode, but that's not what the light was designed for.

Find someone who has a spare forward clicky from the LxT v2 and convince them to sell it to you.
