The idea with the S2 series is that you use a pill much like the stock one, only with a larger internal bore in the driver cavity.
You assemble the pill like normal with the driver sitting against the bottom of the pill but nothing actually holding it in place.
You then screw the pill into the light, this is the only have part that is a bit tricky as it would be hard to get to the pill to screw it down with a 20mm driver covering it up.
Then you simply screw down a retaining ring over the top of everything. I have not had issues with the driver spinning in cases like this personally, if that was a problem it would not be hard to hold it in place.
20mm pcb. It was made for tpad pcb, you can use those that are available now from mtn but you will need to open holes for optics legs. As other spacers, there is no driver place, you just use stock host driver place. Yes, you need to drill central hole in the stock shelf. X5/M1/M2/VG10 kits are pretty similar and easy for build.
Received the copper spacer for a convoy s3 a few weeks ago. Shipping time was decent. It shipped from seller very fast, took a little longer making it through Russia but overall very pleased with the shipping time. It seems to perform quiet well in the s3. The bezel did not go all the way down but it was close, used the glass lense on top of the optics so it wasn’t unexpected. Overall I’m very pleased and will deffiently be ordering again.
All previous parts were made with manual lathe. I give some “+” clearerence because pcbs, optics and even hosts are not same size, so you always can sand down spacer to make perfect fit your combination.
Got another order in yesterday, everything looks great again and packaging is top notch. The outside of the envelope was pretty beat up, but thanks to the way kiriba-ru wraps everything up the goodies on the inside were safe and sound.
Got mine yesterday. Well packaged as always. Beautiful assortment of triple soldered to the spacer. Already made an xpe triple with x5 blf driver. Excellent prices and workmanship!
Again need your advice guys.
I have several requests for aluminium X6 spacers and going to make some soon. As I know, regular eagle eye hosts, and SS/Cu versions have little bigger head ID, which fit 31.7mm spacer. At the same time, aluminium X6 sold as BLF X6 had smaller head ID, and required spacer size is 31.1mm. Where do you get X6 hosts nowdays? What head ID does it have?
Using the copper spacer and 10622 quad optic I received a few days ago from kiriba (superbly packaged by the way!), I built a quad m2 using 4 nichia 219c d320 on the mtn quad pcb, with an ar-coated glass from kaidomain and an mtn-17dd. Needless to say, it makes quite a lot of light, but I was also impressed by how clean and consistent the tint looks considering those are 7-step mcadams ellipse emitters.
As far as the spacer and liner go, everything fit perfectly and I was able to assemble the light quickly and without running into any problems, though the bezel doesn’t screw down all the way because the ar glass is thicker than the stock lens.
