(BLF) Sofirn Q8 V1.5: The XPL HI monster, DIY parts + Extended 8x18650 tubes GB Interest List

Ah Hah! The two things I didn’t have! Yeah, I’d like to see your results when you’re done. :wink:

Go by the gunsmith shop, have them hit the lens for a couple of seconds with bead blast media, voila! You might call and see when they’re going to be bead blasting, they like to set up work to get in the blaster and do everything and get out. :wink:

Or you could just leave like 3 lenses with them, ask for a light, medium and heavy blast whenever they get around to it. They might not even charge you anything, curious to see what you’re doing with it and such. lol

New vid on the Q8 extension tube:

As you can see, there are 2 different tubes for the BLF Q8 and Sofirn Q8. No inter compatibility because of a slight thread change on the Sofirn Q8 for slightly better waterproofing.

The Q8 looks huge now though…

I love it :smiley:

Gonna have to take out a loan to buy the cells… :wink:

They should do that for the X70-GT and newer 6-digit lumens lights. :smiley:

6 digit? Do you mean like 100,000 lumen? 8 batteries won’t support that output so it has to be 12+. They will probably be battery packs.

Speaking of baseball bats from a post further above, can three or more of these be connected to a Q8, staying with the 4.2V parallel configuration? That would be a beast of a light.

Edit: Just watched the video. OMG, yes!

I meant this one. Take no prisoners! :smiley:

I NEED two of those tube/carrier set-ups! :smiley:

Maybe 3, but you know… I sure hope the carrier can move serious current…

(I may possibly need over 80A… no kidding!)

[not looking good, is it?]

Need 4- tube/ carriers

Interested in two tubes and carryers for the BLF Q8.

Please once for the BLF Q8. Thank you

Any updates on the tubes? or pricing yet?

Thank you for keeping track of all this for us and putting it together for the community

Hi!

I like two tubes and carriers so that I can use 8x 18650 in my Sofirn Q8.
