Thats one fine looking light ltp. What reflector and led did you use and was the three mm tap any good you bought of Ebay?
this is the reflector which I trimmed to 50mm dia

slightly bigger than the srk one and a bit deeper
the leds 3 x xpl v2 hi 5000k
I am actually fairly happy with this light ran for 10 mins on high and still no ware near getting to hot I think the battery will go flat before heat becomes a problem
as it was down to 3.9v after 10 mins
the taps I didn’t break them
:+1: Thanks.
so this will be my first build with my own reflector.
picture with a c8 reflector I used for profile.
machined some chunky fins and thread and a bezel /pill.
my knurling skills suck today just couldn’t get it right
tail cap to go and then some assembly will be using xml2u4 1a…possibly a single mode driver or a biscotti
Are you going to dedome the led?
no I would not dedome it. as I will prob give this to my sister with a protected cell for her birthday.
not after any crazy outputs ,just a look what my brother gave me .
you get the idea…
So its done
fairly floody beam runs at 2.1amp on protected panasonic 18650
modes just on…
I was privileged enough to see this light first hand last Friday and ltp pictures just dont do it justice. Its an amazingly compact large, little triple. Nice work ltp and really nice work. :+1:
This is the tripple
Couldn’t get image to work with phone
a lot of your old pictures are unavailiable as photobucket does not support 3. party sharing anymore
sorry this thread has become a bit hit and miss
I have deleted a lot and just put some finished pics up
due to the photobucket issue…
Well I have been assembleing a bit of stuff for another build
4 x 21700 cells
1 x xhp70.2 5000 tint
L6 smooth reflector
bistro driver from lexel
12’’ of plastic rod
and some alloy
1st up battery holder
hogged it out a bit in the milldrill
All the slots done
Enough for today.
Cool, looking forward to this :sunglasses:
Me as well.
A little more this arvo wired the magazine
hopefully nothing will explode
Looks good. How big is the diameter?
I see you have your nuts showing there. :person_facepalming:

56mm .
Coming along nicely.
A little more progress today
mounted a alloy hyd cylinder in the lathe
did a little knurling and madea square thread
trimmed it off in the hacksaw
cleaned it up in the lathe and bored it out to suit battery holder ,pictured with what will be the head
What pitch is your square thread?
I guess you wont be out in the shed today because of the heat.
