X1 + X5 mod?

Overload · Jan 25, 2004

Has anyone tried to combine these two light styles? Kinda like a TwinTask or Aviator, but all LED, with a tightly focused center beam ala X1, with a flood of surounding LEDs like the X5. You could even have three modes for throw, flood, and both.

I think the lens part might be the hard part needing the barrel focus part in the middle, but not anywhere else.

I've actually been thinking about a mod for the X5t involving an extra bezel which slips over the front of the X5t. If you try and use a single lens to focus the LEDs, you get 5 seperate little beams. I was thinking about having 5 smaller lenses mounted in front of each LED to make it a pentagonal shaped beam.

Problem: where the hell am I gonna get 5 little lenses to focus the LEDs?

What?? If you're referring to making my own lenses... forget about it... I'm too stupid and unresourceful.
