I like that A LOT!!:thumbsup::eek:oo:

If you make any more emitter heatsinks and driver heatsinks I would gladly buy a few depending on price.

I have a modded E1e using a Seoul and a cheap driver and simply have an E-can and used a penny as a heatsink. It also uses an Mcr20s. The LED does not stay centered to well.

Is the led module locked in some way or can it fall out from the back? :thinking: ?

Thanks for the kind words!

The led module fits into the head without any play
and there is a small amount of arctic silver between
the head and the centering-ring (good heatsink).
To get it out I use pliers with silicone tips.
