How about a Orange Dry with a brown center :) Tutorial as well!!!

Your oven will be calibrated in degrees Centigrade, not Fahrenheit like the American ones - 250oC is 482oF

Just had to do one more... I put it in the electric toaster oven with a pad of foil under all parts and BROIL for 25-30 minutes. Put parts as close to top elements as you can. Laughing

Streamer -

That looks awesome with the black clip.

Foy

that did come out awesome! might do mine

might also just do bezel and tailcap

I did tractor supply 3xD zoomie w/ torch and it came out GOLD (was orange but changed fast, too much heat)- terrible, I hate it. I think it will get stripped...

dam sipik really looks nice, but dissasembling the light would probably make me ruin it :p

I took the clip off the sipik68...didn't bake the tail and couldn't get the lens out of the bezel so it's black for and aft with a black clip ..I think it's balanced better with touches of black all over it rather than just the tail and clip black ..i like it better than stock :P :)

The clip's coated steel, not anodized aluminum...

Even SkyRay did the oven thingy.... ;-)

Well, I finally read this thread and had to give this a shot. I tried the Uniquefire 2100 from Dino Direct, a Ultrafire 502B from T Mart, and the fourth is a 501B that I was never crazy about. The third light is an unbaked 502B to show as a comparison. Got three totally different colors, though they could all be considered different shades of copper. I'll replace this with a better picture at some point, but I wanted to share. They were still warm when I took this.

Later on I took this picture of the group:

These are cheap lights, even among budget lights, and a few flaws showed up that were probably always there but were harder to see before:

The 501B and 502B were not favorites of mine, but I think they are much improved with their new colors. I never thought the 501B was a good looking light, but the lighter color shows off some of the design details and it looks a lot better now. The 2100 is one I liked already, but I really like the chocolate or espresso tint that it has now.

Your UF 2100 looks just like my Yezl Z1 - I like the way it turned out.

The 2100 looks fantastic!

One of the easiest mods ever. You do have to be able to take the light completely apart and put it back together, but that's about it. I screwed the pieces back together before baking and kept checking on them every few minutes. The 501B baked the longest, at maybe 45 minutes, then the 502B was about 30 minutes and the 2100 was about 20. But after a certain point I don't think they were changing any more.

What is great about it is that it works best with budget lights. And if you have a bunch of lights already sitting around, mostly all in black, then this is a great way to get a little diversity in the colors without even having to buy anything. BLF rules!

Really a stupid question, but I assume this doesn't work on Maglites? I have one of those Sipiks sitting around that I might have to try this on.

I wish I still had the dino dung light. I would just throw it in without stripping it down. lol

Yes it works on mags they us ha 2 well the black does I’m almost positive , it’s been a while , love seeing your different colors , it is fun :slight_smile:

There is a much faster way to do this. The Spark bikelight only took about 2 minutes to change the color.

Don't know how to show the youtube movie directly in the forum, so you have to use the link. It is my first upload to youtube...

On the YouTube page, click on "Share". Then click on "Embed". Make sure that the "Use old embed code" box is ticked. Select all the stuff in the box beginning "<object width" and copy it.

Now switch to BLF. Click on the filmstrip icon which is the second from the right.

Click on the "Source" tab and paste the stuff from YouTube in there then click on the "Insert" button.

Well that was cool. You could see the color suddenly start to change right around 1:15 into it. Also interesting to see the color spread throughout the parts as it heated up. Thanks for posting.

That was pretty cool watching the light change color. Thanks for posting !
