What did you mod today?

that’s one of the weirdest things I’ve seen someone make on BLF :thumbsup:

In charger lighting!

:dance: :smiley:

Part of the reason was that I didn’t have a single 26650 light so instead of spending money…

Stacked some chips on a stock Convoy C8 driver.

I installed an A6 driver in a Nitefighter 502B. Driver ring was jammed so I drilled the driver and left it in place. Filled the gap with wire and soldered. The spring actually needs to be clipped but I chose to put a thicker Oring and all is well. I really do like the A6 driver. Wish the Bistro was available. Nice light now!!

Built a Trustfire Mini 01 triple today with some spare parts i had.

Copper & QTC pill in the tail for variable output, Also made a copper head spacer.

I didn’t realise the 3 XP-G2 were different tints until i had it put together, doh - i think there’s maybe a 2B, 2C and 1A in there, not entirely sure. :-/
This bothers my CDO so i will call it an intended tint balancing feature :wink:

Also ground off the keychain attachment and installed a magnet in the tail and some heatshrink around the body.

Nice mod CRX! I have some QTC pads waiting for a mod still.

Thanks djozz, yeah the QTC pills come in handy for when you accidentally break drivers.

Is the whole light copper or is that just the lighting?

Just my terrible photography mate.

TBF tint balancing feature. I like it. Maybe make a bezel cover with single hole so you could rotate it to select you desired tint :slight_smile:

Pure genius :smiley:

I made a butter knife into a steak knife in four minutes to demonstrate the effectiveness of my Ken Onion Worksharp .

Have I mentioned how much I like this tool ?

:face_with_monocle: :beer:

Kinda forlorn here since I don’t have the time to do any modding, as we are moving to a new home, and all my parts and tools are put away.

I just replaced the reflector on my original first-ever high-power LED flashlight purchased, an original UltraFire 501b, with an EZ-900 XR-E R2 emitter. I swapped the P60 OP reflector with a spare SMO I had handy. I had forgotten what kind of beam this light would make in this configuration. It was slightly ringy, but not as bad as I had expected. Now, it has a very intense and rather well-defined hotspot, making it a surprisingly good thrower. I may eventually add a fourth 7135 to the driver, pushing it just a little bit harder… :crown:

I put an xpg2 into a DST with a 2S, 5A buck driver, finally. Just need to bypass the tail spring to wrap it up. Also prepped a Jacob A60 to receive a dedomed xpg2 because I may have fried the previous one… whoops. :stuck_out_tongue:

I wish people would quit bringing up DST’s. :frowning: Unless they have one to sell , lol

How much cash do you have? :face_with_monocle:

I have one that I offered to sell a while ago, and still might sell. The biggest issue is the shipping will add $10-15 probably. (and I did a few “mods” to it and made it a little ugly :SICK: ) lol

Haha, it has to come to that! I just kick myself for not realizing the potential of those lights. I know I’ll come across one at a garage sale, some day. :beer:

Those at pads look like they could be fun. Nice build!

Removed a rubber grip sleeve from a budget light and applied it to my new Zebralight SC63w.

The SC63w is a nice light. Very bright for an unmodded light of its size. Unfortunately, it completely lacks knurling and squirts out of the hand like a greased pig. Grip sleeve doesn’t look pretty, but it solves the problem.
