No, not at this time. People that don’t have the light already complain about this tube being too long.
And a longer tube would be excessive I have to agree, adding even more weight to the light.
Where did those guys who ordered massive aspheric lenses from optiform go!?
Still waiting for the host…

I have actually carried the light on trails on a sling, but noticed it would have been more comfortable if it was longer, so as to rest it on the shoulder while aiming the light.
I guess I can always make an extension just for support. Thanks.

That is a point and something to consider down the road but there are a lot of things that need to happen before that.
Anyone think about changing the color of the switch LEDs? I think one of mine isn’t working properly and would like to fix it but while i’m in there maybe I could change the color?

Changing the switch LED’s is fairly simple, They are either 0805 or 0603 SMD LED’s and you can use any color you want.
I’m sure it must have been answered somewhere but i can’t find it, is the button cap retaining ring pressed in or threaded ?
Thanks

Threaded.
Thanks TA, that’s good news.
I have opened my flashlight by 2 people (my son and I) using non-skid rubber gloves.
With the stock Led obtained 925.000Cd. I have replaced it with a boiling thinner dedomed XHP35 HD and now I achieve 1.186.000Cd.
The Led I used was removed from a Haikelite MT02.
The measurements are at 10 meters. At 15 meters I get 1.118.000Cd

Nice! :+1:
Will you do any engraving or modification to the anodization?
I recently saw your Utorch… :heart_eyes:

I am waiting for a single carrier “shorty” tube. I carry the GT right at the switch area so balance is not a problem. A little less weight and smaller overall size would be nice in my opinion.

How many lumens does the light produce?
No integrating sphere. I’m sorry.
Visibly more lumens than stock.

Neither of those two distances is far enough to get an accurate reading.

Thank you, goshdogit.
Emiter swap is so little mod than I don’t plan to engrave nothing.

You might be right, but with a second measure (15m) smaller than the first one (10m), I have interpreted that the beam was already collimated at that distance.
In any case, my luxmeter is very cheap and crappy. I want to think that the actual results are better.
if the further measurement is lower your beam is either not focused to infinity but rather to something under 15m or your measuring method is off
Texas_Ace:Cool, where did you get the mcpcb’s?
They still say they plan to make some ready made 12V mcpcb’s once they get caught up on the GB but nice to have an option before that.
I got them from Lumintop T/A.
I emailed them about them and they asked what were they for, I answered honestly and they just ignored me afterwards… :rage:
How did you convince them? Got a spare you could sell? :money_mouth_face:
