Low-cost copper pills, spacers, optics, drop-ins (Updated 23/10/2022))

Guys, I cant make new parts with so few communication. I cant have all hosts in all configs, make several build a day like some members, so I dont know all reefs. Im try avoid spamming lots of extra letters here, but if I ask smth this means that I really need more information that I have.
Once again.
If here any need in copper pills for Courui D01?
Should they be extended height and as heavy as it is possible?
What driver and pcb would you like to use with?

X6 triple conv. is not very user-friendly. XP32 board dont fit inside head, and you have to sand it. I wonder how much users did this work with leds soldered. I have though that soldering leds at last is more simple way, and even made several spacers with soldered and machined pcbs, but fact that they still unsold means that I understand users preferences not so good.
Due this reasons, I have a poll about C8 triple set. Most or even all spacers will be made from Al (Cu version weights more than 100gr, if you still want it please let me know, I will think about limited batch), XP32 board will sit perfectly centered without any sanding, extra liner from Al with gitd o-ring will hold stock glass lens and center Cute-3 optics. After you know a little about this set, please choose one from next options.
“I would buy C8 triple set…”

  1. bare set (spacer, liner, o-ring)
  2. only if you will have cute-3 optics to ship them together
  3. only if you will have XP32 bare boards to ship them together
  4. only if you will have XP32 with leds to ship them together
  5. only if you will provide full set with leds and optics
  6. wouldnt buy it in any set

My preference is , as a kit :

- aluminum spacer

- XP32 board (stock , not machined)

  • cute-3 optic

Not interested now , as i still have 2 or 3 full kits , but i’m just saying my preference .
It takes me some minutes to make the xp32 fit in the host , using hand tools .

It is hard to please everyone. rmy idea is to build something myself. Anything more people should just buy a completed light.

My opinion anyway.

Going overboard is going to get difficult.

Maybe you are right.
I still cant forget “custom” size P60 drop-ins.
Someone have asked me to make various of them, when they were ready most buyers didnt have host for it :zipper_mouth_face: , others have take sizes that could never fit (one half took 22.0 for use in 24mm 502b :smiley: , other half took 22.8 and sanded it dozen hours to put inside their 22.0 Surefire :person_facepalming: )

Once things get difficult it is like Work. Keep simple and enjoy what you do.

Do you have the Convoy S2+ copper pill for sale?

No. They will be restocked in March.

Making several Courui D01 pills have paused because smallest amount of 45mm copper rod I can get will be enought to make hundred of them.
Any ideas how to use this rod? SRK clones shelfs?

Just received one Convoy M2 brass pill & ring, XHP70 LED and Carclo 60622 lens

Thanks for all! incredible fast shipping and quality, will post the results when I finish the mod

I received a copper spacer for Carclo triple Convoy S2+. It is very well made and I installed with a Kaidomain triple 219C with optics and It works, but Kaidomain triple board is very thin and it is not flat and it doesn’t make full contact with the spacer.

I also received a Carclo optic and Noctigon triple board from kiriba-ru that seems very good. It’s really flat and It will make very good contact with the spacer. I will reflow leds and try it when I have some more time.

Thank you very much kiriba-ru for your products, your help and the advice to build my first triple.

I am already thinking about building my next triple (really a quad Convoy M2) and I am sure that I will buy the spacer from kiriba-ru

Got another S2+ pill and Carclo optics yesterday, same fast shipping and great packaging as the others, and it fits perfectly into a red host.

Love the box they come in too, great for storing all the random parts I seem to be accumulating!

Just need the 219Cs from the GB now and it’s time to start building again :slight_smile:

Recieved two spacers for S2+ today. Extremely well packaged. Thank you very much. A pleasure buying from you. MN.

Wondering when the copper pill triples will be back in stock I would like to order several

Not so soon, I have ordered copper rod for new pills and spacers, will arrive next week, machining will take extra two weeks.

I’m down for a couple of those s2+ triple’s also will keep an eye on this thread :slight_smile:

This parts are ready. If you have reserved some of them, I will contact you today or tomorrow.
C8 aluminium kits are in work. Until I havent used all 35mm aluminium rod for C8 kits you can say if you want to have X6, X7 or F13 spacers made from aluminium.
Copper rod for Courui pills is ordered. Please give me suggest where else it (OD 45mm) can be used.

Interesting stuff for C8.
What kind of kit?
Wondering if you make copper kit too.

Dont think so.
I still have one sample from Cu, it have little wrong dimentions, if you are ready to make little hand work you can contact me PM.

Hi, I’m interested in 2 shortened spacer for convoy s3 , mine is without pill, and 2 carclo optics also for convoy s3, I’m from the Philippines. How much will it cost? Pm me. Thank you
