Low-cost copper pills, spacers, optics, drop-ins (Updated 23/10/2022))

Standard pill, or for the quad?

My biggest issue is that I don’t have much to actually do metalwork of any kind. Files, hacksaws, etc., but no metal stock, lathes, etc.

That’s why I figure even if the quad pill (raising up the shelf to hold the smaller height of the pcb+TIRs) could if anything be filed down somewhat, that would be more workable than trying to make my own spacer to “lift” a standard pill, or else I’d just need a spacer like one used in an S2+ triple.

What’s the height difference between the quad pill and standard pill?

(I don’t intend to run the triple too hot at all, if that helps.)

As some of you know, near a year ago Ive started to provide cnc made parts. This improved quality and abilities, but I couldnt provide rare parts anymore so I had to refuse when got pm with custom request.
I dont like to leave somebody dissapointed, I would like to give the last chance so anyone could make any pill Ive ever made.
List, from big to small:
Courui D01
Small Sun ZY-T08
HD-2010
Brynite B158 (4pcs reserved)
P60 single led stock reflector (7/10 pcs reserved, production delayed until September)
Ultrafire or another brand SK68 clone
Surefire type E?

I can make any of them last time (MOQ=5pcs, GB open) $25/20/15/10/10/10/10, or
sell any die (tool that I used to make good quality calibrated threads) just for $10.

Im sorry I didnt get the problem the first time I read your message.

I never heard about different batches of SS bezels. I appreciate Simon, he made big batch of them (without bezels this project was not possible). But as I can see all vendors (Simon/Fasttech/Banggood/Gearbest) provide same bezel that is included with my set.

Im not good in photographing and in most cases I prefer customers photos to my own. By some reason SS bezel was not used with the build, builder left stock bezel and this (wave shape) is what you see on the photo. Bezel that included to the set have sharp crenellations.

So does this mean that we can put in an order for any of the above parts? If so, I would like to get 2 x p60 singe led pills.

Yes you can put an order and it will be made if MOQ is reached.

Great, I’d like to put in an order for 2 x p60 single led pills.

kiriba-ru how much do the B158 pills cost and how much do they weigh?

$10
Last time I had them was more than a year ago. Dont remember weight. Defenetly under 50gr.

The P60 single led is it with a retaining ring or do you solder the driver ?

No retaining ring, solder or press fit.

Thank you for the fast reply :slight_smile:

I’m interested in a maglite D kit with the adapter for a 17mm driver, shipped to the US. Is this still available and if so what would the total cost be, thanks.

All parts listed in the first post are available.
$13 kit
$4 17mm adapter (extra $3 if you want thin custom retaining ring instead of regular convoy one)
$8 shipping cost

i will be using a QLITE driver so which adapter would you recommend ? Thank you for the quick reply.

I recommend custom rings if you will use driver with components on both sides.

just so i’m clear, for $3.00 i get a retaining ring that will hold the 17mm driver in the adapter, is that correct ?

Yes. Custom ring is not cheap.

$3.00 for a custom machined brass ring sounds reasonable to me, certainly better than soldering one in

C8 copper pill with threads measure like fasttech brass pill are available?

Not available and never will be.
