Convoy S9 Carbon Fibre & Lighted Switch Fixed

I thought it was a bit silly for the Convoy S9 to have the lighted switch illuminated only when the light is on so I installed a white LED under the switch cover which is always on unless the light is locked out.

I shortened the battery tube and installed a magnetic tail, the magnet is not too strong but just enough to hold the light horizontally.
The original switch boot is covered in some GITD power & silicone mix which also makes it a little firmer to operate.
27mm x 1mm 3K carbon fibre sleeve on head & body and resistor modded for more current.
Charging indicator LEDs can be seen from the side. Driver cavity is potted.
Stock driver/ 1A USB charger unit with resistor mod so still four modes with 0.5s press for On/Off and single click to progress through the modes while the light is on. The UI takes a little getting used to but is tolerable.

Sweet :slight_smile: Like the way the switch looks like :wink: And turned out great with the CF :+1:
I wish I had the ability to mod this light’s driver; i would get one! The current UI is a no-no!

Yeah it’s not the best but not the worst either.
I’ve never liked lights that you need to press & hold for On & Off but the S9 isn’t too bad.

I wanted to like the S9 but that UI just doesn’t do it for me…
It’s a pity because I love the aesthetics !

Great job CRX, as always !

Awesome mod as always! :+1: :beer:
