Guys here are the upgrade cost for XRE.
1. Chrome XRE Plugin ... $85
- includes LE body, oring, v2 converter, modified reflector, premium Cree XRE
2. Titanium XRE Plugin ... $110
- includes LE body, oring, v2 converter, modified reflector, premium Cree XRE
3. Chrome Luxeon -> XRE upgrade/swap ... $40
4. Titanium Luxeon -> XRE upgrade/swap ... $45
5. New Chrome Draco with XRE upgrade... $155
6. New Titanium Draco with XRE upgrade... $270
Note: this upgrade will not work with the Luxeon based Turbo Head at the moment.
As for the pending Ti order, you have the option to upgrade for $30 (the difference between the two price) and will be among the first to receive the upgrade option. What do you guys think is this "fair"?

Hello Modamag,
I was wanting to upgrade to the XRE on the Ti that has not shipped yet. Is it only $30 extra? Or is it $45
I think I have also talked my self into the turbo head. Will that need a different reflector?
Do I need the AAA tube? Will it make the light brighter or just give me a better run time?
Thanks Rob

Before everyone jump to the CREE ship, let me remind you guys of couple things.
1. The tint is the Cree is not as well controlled as the Luxeon ones. From my testing of 30+ units they are all over the place.
2. Same goes for the Vf. But generally they are fairly low 3.1-3.5 V.
3. This XRE light engine upgrade will not work with the Luxeon Turbo Head. This is why I offer the plugin option, where you get to have the best of both world. CREE LE and Luxeon LE + turbo head. Just in case in the near future that Luxeon catch up.

Johnathon,
Thanks for the points mentioned above, that is good to know.
I also like that you provide great communications and excellent business transactions, there are some other custom light makers that could learn from you.

Fair you ask?
Everyone is being allowed to do about anything they want to do for a cost that is less than I would have thought.
While some payment is a neccessary part of your bringing this awesome little torch to us, it seems more like a gift of technology, skill, knowledge and personal light.
Thanks, Jonathan.

(Please excuse my ignorance here)
It looks like there is a screw hole on the base. I am sure this is to attach a ring/lanyard to.
Is the screw attachment included, if not, where do I get one from?
Cheers - and thanks for not pointing out my ignorance!

I don't think that's a screw hole... at least, on mine, it's not threaded. It's just a hole into which I hope to be able to epoxy a small tritium insert (anybody have info on the size of the hole, so I know what size tritium to look for? thanks). There is, however, a splitring attached through one of the three "arms" on the base of the draco if that helps.
