No expert here but all the zoomie to flood flashlights I have seen only have one LED in the middle of lens.
Problem is you would need about a 6" lens for your monster light
Great job on that by the way.

yup your right and a 6" lease is not super cheap so I would like to understand if it would even work before I bought one.

I have no idea of what the design details would be for your light,but i would guess a 400 meter focal length Fresnel Lens

for starters might be printable for testing.

That is pretty cool but I think these lights would melt any plastic lens I put in front of them. I think I am going to order a basic fresnel lens and see what I can come up with.

How much of an improvement do you expect this to make? Any worry about it melting?

No clue I know nothing about lenses and focusing light. I would like to be able to direct the light a bit more and throw the light further beyond that this is new territory for me. I ordered a 150mm lens and am currently printing a lens holder for the flash light that should allow me to move the lens closer and farther away from the flashlight. I have attached some pics of the 3D model I will post more once I get this all completed.

This is the bottom of the lens and it screws on the head of the Flashlight

Here is the inside mech that makes the lens move up and down
