Hey m8, i have kinda “wierd” demand :laughing:

Several month ago i was able to get a russian tweezers from an unknown source( they just arrived at work), lately i asked where the hell did the supplier got those but it seems they were laying in his store for years

Those are the strongest and the best tweezers i have seen in my entire engineer carrier, one could even use them as a …everything, they will never break, snap, swap ot damage, very solid one, very russian :slight_smile:

Could you pls take a look and if you find those ,offer them to us, the next time i order pills from you will get at least 6pcs if the price is reasonable

I suppose they are from medicine. I will try to find them in medical equipment shop (I knew that smth similar does exist but still continue using low-cost chinese tweezers).

I received my spacers yesterday. Looking good. Shipping was quite fast from Russia to Germany. Will report back when I have the first one installed. Thank you very much, kiriba-ru!

Here is it:


Neck+short tube=18650 light
To use 18350 (s), you need extra rings (number of rings=number of 18350)
I have only big rings that fit tail right now (made from SS). Later I will make smaller ones (to use them between tubes) and those one that can fit between neck and head (all from brass). Head side is little long, if you wont use ring between head and neck you need to sand it down a little or just put some o-ring there.
You can screw-in any convoy S series pill. Triple pill or single pill with spacer can be used to build quad with Carclo optics, single pill without spacer can be used together with some single optics.
You can use long tweezers to adjust pill position for optics height.

Same in copper:

External surfaces are not so good and require some polishing, but I dont have time to do this so they will be selling “as is”.

Just received my package from kiriba-ru, color me very pleased. The spacer seems nice and everything was packaged very very well. He even shipped it in this nice little plastic box. Tracking was provided and accurate. Would recommend!!

I had a couple of questions about the solid neck p60 AL. Do you mean that, the neck + 18350 extension tube, head, and tail = you can fit a 18650 cell? Also I’m not sure if I understand what you mean by if you add extra rings you can use 18350 cells. Is that for multi-battery setups?

Yes neck only is close to fit 18350 cell inside.
One 18350 cell is longer than half of 18650 cell length (and ext tube length), two 18350 cells are longer than one 18650 cell and etc.
So if you will use one or two 18650 cells, you will have enought space for cells inside and extra rings allow you to use protected cells.
But if you are going to use one, two, three or four 18350 cells you have to add at least one, two, three or four rings respectively.

So many things I want to order but alas no money or hosts to use them with at the moment. Soon though……

Got it. Sorry if I missed it but I didn’t see the prices for the copper and aluminum necks, and spacer rings.

I have made 2 of them from Al and 2 from Cu so this are test versions. They are not so pretty as I wish.
Anyway I cant polish them soon, I will try to sell them as is.
Some members have asked me about them, I will contact them PMs and make my offer.
So Im not sure that I have them on sale, I can say that they are already reserved, if those that asked about them earlier will refuse, I can contact you.

Got my orders today.

Thanks kiriba-ru.

Highly recommend your amazing work.

Happy modding and i will be back for more :smiley:

Hi, I’d like to make an order for:

1x P60 copper quad drop-ins – Surefire non-compatible, no ground spring required, driver press fit/solder version.
1x triple liner with gitd o-ring

Should be $20 USD +shipping.

Still have some in stock? My paypal is ready :slight_smile:

Unbelievable. You was waiting four years to write your first post in my thread?

I’ll take it! :+1:

Yes!
It’s taken years for cheap p60 pills to become available! No?!

How do you think, is here any need in stock design p60 pills in copper? Some drop-in manufactures using brass pill with xhp50, xhp70, driving up to 20W to the led. Not good at all.

Yes I think that would be good. Some of us want high power in a single led with reflector setup.

In fact the last p60 pill I ordered was 4 years ago, it was a custom machined p69 screw in to fit a standard reflector.
