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

∅20mm H1-A driver can be used soldering it to the pill with a hot air gun. H1-As maximum Vout can be modded for triples, see Jensen567's work.

:-)

This is a little job I've done with a genuine UltraFire SK98 flashlight's pill.

Inner cylinder is ∅11.1mm approximately, made of two 1mm thick copper discs. Under it is soldered to a ∅18mm 1mm thick disc, and thermal glued to the pill's balcony.

This model would thank a nice and beefy copper pill, it is very easy to mount an H1-A driver in, fits snugly.

mtnelectronics is supposed to have something in the works, available at the beginning of August! I suspect a copper pill will be quite necessary when running an XHP in an S2+

Thanks for the info mate! I’ve been reading RMM’s thread and noticed that recently :wink:
I’ll be looking for it on both thread and in MTN site! Thanks for sharing :+1:

Thanks kiriba-ru. Could you please put me down for two B158 pills?

Im sorry, it requires as much as 20x S2+ spacers in material and as much as 10x S2+ spacers machining time.
Money is not target, I left the message to finish as much custom (small quantity) orders as it is possible ATM.
If you think parts are overprices, you are welcome, just $10 for any die (I will help with tips and drawings), it would be great if another BLF member would provide this pills could keep prices at better level.

I do not have a the possibility to make something like this and I do not say, it is overpriced. But its not worth for me for this flashligt.

Got my goodies, tnx!

Now I’ll see what a triple of 351Ds will look like… :smiley:

All triple pills are gone. I think single led copper pill looks more interesting since 17mm boost driver is available, so single pill is next to be produced. I havent seen great demand for triple pills last time, not sure I should make more of them. Please leave your comment if you dont agree.

One more price drop for many items related with ruble devaluation.

Hello,

will P60 Surefire copper quad shelf find into the this host ?

P60 head size
inner head tube 22mm
max inner diameter 24,5mm
lenght from bottom head to glass 33mm
(from screws - there is no shelf, a spring is hold by battery tube)

Brass Pill + reflector size that fits to host
lenght pill + reflector (wo spring) 27,5mm
max reflector diameter 26mm
Body reflector diameter 21,75mm

Could you please show the top of the head?

Please see,

I dont see any reason why quad drop-in wont fit.
But I think this surface on top of the head is the only reasonable pad to transfer negative to the pill. If you can sand the ano down to the bare aluminium, it should work well.

If you have anymore of the copper S2+ triples or make more, I will buy three. Thanks.
