SOLD: Another Stubby Mag
$175 conus
This time, it's a C Mag. This along the same lines as the last one ( https://www.candlepowerforums.com/threads/277586 ), which was made to try out a recessed switch in the tail cap.
The tail cap is pretty much like the last one, but smaller. It starts out getting internally threaded and bored at the end.
A trim ring is threaded to the bottom of the tail cap....
....followed by the rubber boot and a Fenix switch.
A retaining ring holds everything in place.
The body is cut off at both ends, leaving only the knurled section. Both ends are re-threaded.
The heat sink is threaded to keep it secure in the body. The driver, a three-level ShiningBeam #1131, is held in place by a brass retaining ring.
The business end is an XP-G R4 (2B tint) from ShiningBeam. The supplied wires from the driver are replaced with 24AWG Teflon.
A plastic tube holds an 18650. It fits both the AW 2200mAH and 2600mAH cells.
Here's the catch. Along the way, I noticed rub marks on the tail cap knurling. I don't know whether I did this or it came that way but, even though the marks aren't obvious, I consider them to be a defect and the light is priced accordingly.
The reflector is an MOP from DX. It gives a narrow and very bright hot spot with a large ring of spill that has a well-defined edge. The lens is glass.
The current at the tail cap is:
1.38A on high
.40A on medium
.06A on low
This wasn't intended to be the brightest light on CPF but, rather, a reasonably strong light with good run time. According to the Cree data sheet, the XP-G should be putting out about 400 lumens on the high setting. This ought to be plenty to keep anyone from getting lost in the dark!
