Sold/Expired WTB: Mag D heatsinks suitable for fixing Cree XML leds to

jamesseven · Mar 22, 2011

Does anyone currently make Mag D heatsinks suitable for fixing Cree XML's to? OR is there a machinist out there who could make them?

If you find them, let me know! It would be kick *** to put 3 XM-L's in a mag! Also, have you found a place that sells the actual leds yet? What do you plan on using for a board?

for single xml i used regular p7 heatsink (short one), cut off ridges\flares, flipped it upside down, and mounted xm-l star on the back side, worked great. for tripple xml you need heatsink that fits into the head, not the tube, sandwich shoppe sells them

I use P7 sink too, but I use it right side up, not upside down.

I grind away the tiny bracket on top of the center post to make it into a flat top post,
then use XML/14mm star & retain the mag focus ability.

I make my own using a copper core inside an aluminum sleeve.

I do the same with XM-Ls or XP-Gs on round 12-14mm boards. You can purchase the heatsinks from H22A here. He does offer ones without the tabs on top, but looks like they won't be available for a little while.
