I will leave the information here for historic reasons:
I have had requests that I sell my lovely aspheric lenses.
So here they are for AUD$10 each (USD$8 on May 21 10).
or 10 for AUD$50 (USD$40 on May 21 10)
or 20 for AUD$80 (USD$70 on May 21 10)
or 50 for AUD$175 (USD$150 on May 21 10)
Just imagine the fun you'd have with 50 XRE-R2s behind Aspherics. My estimation is that it would shine 1.4km and have a beam width of 125m. Oneday, I hope to make a few of these 200W spotlights.
BK7 Crown Glass
11g
30mm wide, including 2.5mm lip around the outside. So the lens is effectively 25mm wide.
2mm thick at the edges, 14mm in the middle
The die is projected best when the (flat) back of the lens is held around 6.5mm from the top of the XR-E dome. So it collects a lot of light.
The projected die is about 85-90mm wide at 1000mm. While this isn't as tight as a 50mm lens will give you, I think it's pretty good for how compact it is.
I have been told that with a small amount of grinding, it fits into a W200 or UltraFire WF-501B and works well but I have not tried this myself. Packhorse has given these lenses a nice review in his build threads.
Postage cost is the same for up to 20 lenses. Contact me if you want more than that. I think I can package up to 100 for hardly any extra cost. You are welcome to use this thread to get a group buy together. I hate the thought of postage being than half of the cost.
Within Australia:
AU$5.50 Regular Parcel post.
International:
AUD$24 Registered Airmail delivers in 7-10 working days
AUD$14 Airmail delivers in 7-10 working days
