Ok, they have the L5-S, and it cost $3 more, so for $27.50. You have to make it out with them, they bump the price, you pay, and get the L5-S... Oh boy.
Well, I amazed myself this morning. I removed the 7135 and replaced it with one I had removed in another project. And it was a success!! The driver works again. I have no idea why it failed, but there we are.
I just heard back from FFRAN Tech Store and they said it’s a new light and that they will be launching it soon. You can still buy early like was mentioned before. Just contact them and they will set it up. I got a price of $28.50 with usb cable
This is pretty cool. I could turn it into a mini L6. Squeeze in a FX30 driver, a pair of 26350 then an xhp70.
The MCPCB is 20 mm
The driver is an odd size with the two “ears” protruding. If the USB charger is not kept the easiest method to mount a new driver may be to strip the stock driver and simply use it to piggyback a new driver.
I have not measured any amps at all. Just lumens out the front.
I just ordered two directly from SupFire, flashlight only (no cells or chargers). Total including shipping to Sweden was $55.70.
I asked if they would sell hosts only, answer was no.
I’m having a hard time getting it out. Did you need to heat it up or just use a lot of force? Does it screw out normally or have reversed threads like some Convoy hosts have?
Hmmm. I had very little difficulty unscrewing it. I used my spanner tool, applied a little force and it came loose. It is a normal right hand thread, so CCW to unscrew.
The rear button certainly seems as if it was has hastily added. It doesn’t appear to be water tight at all. The metal cap over the rubber boot also flops around some.
