I have my custom RcatR M6 price to sell. This will be my last price drop. Let me just say this light is unique and if you ever wanted a custom LED M6 this light is for you. Several small wear marks from daily usage but no major flaws. A new M6 would cost more but I would like some funds for newer projects

Here is his description and some pics I took. Let me just say Awesome.
"The 5 outside rebels are running on their own independent shark running at 980mA; using custom .3" flood reflectors.
The 5 inside Cree Q4s are running on their own independent shark at 980mA; using trimmed minimagLED reflectors.
The center Cree Q5 is running on an independent downboy at 1000mA; using a trimmed mcr17 reflector.
The aluminum heatsink is one solid piece; with all electronics potted in thermal epoxy. The reflectors are held in focus and together with glow in the dark epoxy. The light will run on 6x123; 6xR123; or 3x17670 using a custom battery cage. When you put your hand in front of the light you can feel heat. the overall output is roughly 2000lumens; it overpowers my '93 ranger's headlights"
$375 now shipped Conus . Paypall cash preferred. No Trades.*Sold*

Re: My 2000+ LED lumen M6 priced to sell

5x led's on a boost shark with 6 cells??? Look's nice but I think that would be bypassing the shark and direct driving them!

I usually run it on 3x 17670's and get about an hour worth of runtime. Never ran it down to the end of the cell life so never noticed much decrease in output.

that is a ridiculously low price... the labor on that beauty should be the price you're selling it at.

I realize the price is low If this does not sell soon I may pull it, There is way more money invested in the light. I realize with the slower economy higher price light are tougher to sell. I had fun with the light, and would like some cash for a newer project. I am willing to give someone a steal of a light such that I can try something new.

Re: My 2000+ LED lumen M6 priced to sell

Nice, are you sure about the 1hr run time? f you are getting 1hr run time with 3x17670, that mean the power output is 1/2 of Mag1185,
As I am only getting 1/2 hr run time with Mag1185 3x17670.
Assume the LEDs are 2x efficient than the overdrive 1185.
The power output would be close to 1185, ~1500 Lumens at turn on?

Do you have a beam shot compare to 1185 or 5761?

Re: My 2000+ LED lumen M6 priced to sell

No I don't have any good beamshots and most of my lights are in storage as I am moving cross-country. The hour runtime is just a guess. Like I said Never used and drained the batteries. It has 11 emmiters thouugh so it is pretty bright. I think the uniqueness in the light is the emmiter arrray and variety. Not so much the total lumen out put. The lumen output was given to me as an esimate. We all know things heat up and drop off but it was as bright as my 1185 if not brighter.

At this price even if you hated the mod you could use the body for your own build and it would still be cheaper than buying a new M6. But IMHO this is a cool light. They only reason I am thinking of selling it to justify some new buys. I don't have to sell it and won't drop the price any lower as there is to much invested into the light as it is.

It has a custom cage that will hold 6x123; 6xR123; or 3x17670.
