    Re: XP-G R5 Mod of Sgt. Burkett with McR-20 Seoul Reflector Hi, I love this mod, I have a SGT Burkett and am looking at modding it. Just a question, to get the 1.2A drive what driver board did you use. I only have 1.0A or 1.4A. Thanks Mark

    Best AA flashlight for handlebars

    I have a separate "be seen" light, one of the problems I have found with a good light that has a flashing mode is that it is very distracting having 200+ lumens on - and then most importantly then off. your eyes have to adjust between lots of light then none in an ongoing on/off repitition. This...

    What to do with my Fenix LD01 - I got a green tint too !!!

    I am thinking of returning as well, just tossing up the cost of returning (international post) as against fixing it myself - (either a Q5 or SSC P4). Does anyone know if it is a surface mount cree replacement. If it is I don't have a reflow soldering iron to do it. If I can use a normal...

    What to do with my Fenix LD01 - I got a green tint too !!!

    I love this light - BUT it has the worst tint of any light I own. I really dislike the greenish tint - it is noticeable, but even more so when I compare it to any other light I own. I have compared it to over 15 lights (sad I know) and it has the worst tint of any light I have. I have emailed...

    Collimator Lens vs. Reflector

    For me, I prefer the collimator for bike light use, it gives a better beam profile for the lights I have setup. I also like some reflectors better than collimators BUT it depends on the design. I don't believe this is a simple yes/no question as it depends on use and how the manufacturer...

    *Now Built* P7 has converted me from incan only to LED - now I need help building one

    Re: P7 has converted me from incan only to LED - now I need help building one Hi, I too am in Australia and was looking at a 1D P7 mod running a 1D Li ion, but I am having trouble sourcing a 1D host, where did you get yours from or did you get someone to mod a 2D for you. Cheers Mark

    Ultrafire C2 SSC P7 mod (with beamshots)

    I just got my emitter today and installed it into my C2. What can I say but Holy s#!t this thing is bright !!! It is like holding a car headlight in your hand. I plan on setting up another C2 the same and then using the setup StefanFS did on his Tiablo A8 and driving them at 2.4a regulated...

    Curtain Rail Tri LED

    Hi, I love the neat design of this light, It is just the size I was after. I know it sounds like a dumb question, hoever where did you source the curtain rail from. I tried a couple of sources around me but couldn't find anything similar. I am in Melbourne Australia. Cheers Mark

    Coast LED Lenser flashlights

    Hi, I just tried vice grips with rubber as a protector and used brute force. I couldn't get the head off, eventually it chewed through the rubber and damaged the body slightly - but still no luck. I don't want to destroy the light, just wish there was a simple how to on getting the head off...

    Source of a suitable driver for an AA size flashlight with 1000ma drive

    Hi, Thanks, that looks like a nice option. Have you used this driver board. If so how have you found it as a driver for 3.7v out of a 14500. Thanks Mark

    Source of a suitable driver for an AA size flashlight with 1000ma drive

    Hi, I am planning on upgrading one of my lights which will have an SSC P4 LED driven by a 14500 Li-ion rechargeable. I was looking at driving this at 100ma if possible. To do this I need to find a driver that will fit into an AA sized flashlight (14500 is about approximately this size). Does...

    Coast LED Lenser flashlights

    Hi Frank777, I have the same flashlight that I wanted to give some new life to but haven't figured out how to get to the LED. How did you get the head off, if I can figure that out I will update mine with an SSC P4 as well. Cheers Mark
