I'm sorry the pens have a tail switch. The side momentary switch on high power lasers is extremely dangerous. Believe me, I know first hand.

Lol that one was sold a while back. But I can make the exact one. I have the exact host and can order the module whenever you like :D I can actually make a stronger one this time.

I'll see what my finances look like next month, I've always liked Green:green:

That one is a sipik host, so it's very small.
I need a little recovery time myself.

Man it'd be hard to put an estimate on it. The parts is one thing but alignment of the beams is another. We're talking night after night of trial and error getting them into the combining optics. I'd definitely do one for myself before making any attempt to quote someone. Custom machining, custom optics, = custom price ;)

I gotcha. Is the 6w that involved?

6w can be achieved just recently now with a single diode, so as of a few months ago, no. Only problem is taking care of all the heat. But that's pretty easy.

would it run off of 6 batts or does it need a couple spacers?

I would need the light, but I don't need that many cells unless you want to run regular D cells. If i run lithium ion, I only need two 32650's. And I need to mount the driver in the head permanently so I'd need the light. My machinist stocks 2D maglite in every color, ready for custom heatsinks.

Oh and that diode alone is $700 or so

thanks for the info. I'll let you know on that. A 2D mag is so cheap, if I decide to do it, I'll just have you start from scratch. My t45cvn comes tomorrow, you got anything on its way?
