Your Favorite Modified Flashlight

[325addict]

My favorite modified flashlights are all incans. I simply don't like LED flashlights. The one that's my pride is the Megalennium 3S 18650... by FiveMega, indeed. Second must be again a FM construction: the M*g 2.5D, taking either 4 pieces 18650 in a 2S/2P configuration or 2 of those chunky 32650s. Add a metal reflector, a glass lens and a Tad Customs PR bulb drawing 1.2 Amps at 7.2V and you have a VERY usable light indeed. Number 3: the Surefire E1e, simply modified with a Lumens Factory 50 Lumen bulb. I now also modified it with a Lumens Factory smooth bezel, as the standard bezel ate its way through many trousers' pockets!

My favorite modified light is the MS18 with V54 engraving that passed through Vinhs' hands for his tuning, adjusting and modification.

My favorite flashlight is usually whatever I just modded.

Currently it is the sideswitch light above (pictured next to a Lumintop FWAA for scale):

It is a Zebralight SC52w, modded with:
* Driver replaced with Mountain 15mm DD (FET+1) with Anduril firmware
* Emitter replaced with filed down 20mm triple Noctigon with 3x SST-20 95 CRI FD2 bin.
* Reflector replaced with filed down Carclo 10507 optic
* Added a few strips of Talon Grip tape on the outside of the battery tube.
* Replaced stock clip with deep-carry titanium clip.

I still love Maglite mods ... D cell and C cell incans converted to LED.
I have Magmods with P7s, multi emitter mods with Cree XREs, K2 TFFC (remember those) and XPGs.
Back then custom parts and machining where readily avaliable, re-machined hosts, hard anodizing. Now nothing
I am now down to my last 2 LED heatsinks, both for a D cell. One is already taken with a Nicha 519 I am planning.

Too many to choose from. I love my Gladiusesss.. Gladiuii? The Blackhawk Gladius is very special to me as I figured out on my own how to retrofit a P60 reflector and upgraded LED and have done a bunch for other people.
