Hi folks, it's been a while since I posted so please be gentle!
A while back I modded my old Gladius, SSCP4, reflector etc, nice result, love that torch.
I have another Glad to mod. I dug about and the newer mod/upgrade from Strategos is (as developed by Milkyspit of this parish) an optic and (I think), XPG R5 emitter. see here;

Here's a link to a how to that set me off:

That one uses, as I did, a reflector, and was my original guide. I want to use an optic as I want to place trit vials behind the optic, and it seems Milky found the optic better too.
I've put trits behind the optics on several lights and it really works well.
Question.
Where is the source for the optic (26.5mm I think) and a decent tint XPG R5? Is anyone supplying as a "kit"?
I sent for a star from DX but it never showed up.
ps, I tried Strategos and Milky some time back for info/parts but got no response from either.
Thanks.
