Very similar to this Mag 2C light I sold recently,
https://www.candlepowerforums.com/threads/290733
but built on Mag cut down 1C & used Shinning beam 1.4Amp 3 mode driver & Runs on 1 C-lions (or 18650s with sinmple mod).
Cree recently raised XPG max current rating to 1.5 Amp, stated spec up to 493 lumens @ 1.5A:
This light is designed to push XPG-R5 near its maximum spec potential in a smallest possible Mag 1C platform.
The light uses Shinning beam 7135 based 1.4Amp 3 mode driver.
Body is bored to 26mm to use AW 26500 IMR.
1.4Amp will push the XPG R5 over 450 LED lumens.
It use a very special reflector: Hybrid Sputter Reflector: to achieve excellent beam quality without loss of throw vs. SMO. Finally, a perfect harmony between perfect beam & ultimate throw is reached.
Donn was the first one who has seen this reflector in action, here is what he said in the Mag 2C FS thread as feedback:
Spec:
add $9 for Shipping & PP Fee. USA Only. Batteries not included.
Quite a few ways to run this 1C shorty, the light will Run on:
Mag C switch has a self cleaning function that some times trigger mode change on the shinning beam driver when you transition from soft click to hard click. To lock-in the mode selection as you desired, first do soft click (half way) & off, repeat this will change modes as mag switch is forward clicky.
When desired mode is reached, wait for 2 seconds then press all the way, wait another 2 seconds then release, so the driver won't change modes after you already reached the mode you want.

Spec:
- Custom cut down & re-threaded Mag 1C host-Black
- Body bored to 26mm
- Tail cap inner rim machined down & spring deeply recessed
- Powered by 1x IMR 26500 Li-ion, DX or old AW C-lion.
- can run 18650s with some simple mods
- XPG R5 Pure white tint, no green, no yellow.
- H22A P7 Heat sink
- Carbon Fiber Trim plate on top of the XPG star
- 22 AWG Silver Coated Teflon Wires
- Shinning beam 3 mode driver: 1.4 Amp to the Led.
- Custom Hybrid Sputter Mag reflector
- Over 450 led Lumens from a single led per cree spec
- Great beam, Thanks to the lower half light OP treatment
- Ultimate throw, thanks to the SMO of top half of the reflector
- This will blow away the Malkoff XPG drop-in at ease
- This will give you 1.5hr on AW IMR 26500 or 2.5 hours on DX C-lion
