Hardware:
- FM3V-2
- Red Mag 2D tube
- MDXR-4-2 heatsink
- (4) Cree XRE Q5 WG
- (4) McR27XR w/ Mirage_Man centering rings
- Shark on a SharkSink with IC and diode topside sinks
- 20K log pot epoxied into tapped hole
- Custom LZ pot knob w/ green trit indicator
- FM 6 X 14500 holder, 2s3p, 7.4 V operation

Specs:
- Matched Vf LEDs - 3.4 V @ 350 mA
- Current pot adjustable from 0 - 910 mA, center detent = 500 mA
- Draws 2.3 A @ 7.4 V
- 17,600 Lux @ 1m
- Runtime about 1 hr on hi using 6 X 14500

This light can also run off 6 AA (6s, 7.2V) with this holder, or 2 X C size Li-ion with a sleeve. Runtimes on hi about 1 hr and 1.4 hr respectively. It can also accept higher cell voltage, up to 13 V, but above 10 V you will not get full dimming.

Color match between head and tube is decent, better in person than the pictures indicate.

The head, sink, and tube are thread-jammed together with strap wrenches eliminating the need for epoxy. Only AA compound was used so the light is fully serviceable, yet cannot be loosened inadvertently.

$525 shipped domestic, international additional at cost. Cells not included.
Deduct $37 if you do not need the 6 X 14500 holder.

I do not have a 6AA holder, but you can order one from the above link. If you want to use 2 X C cell, I can fabricate a PVC sleeve, add $5.
