Convoy L2/L6 modding thread

The L6 SMO reflector is not available anymore? Anyone can help to confirm this?

As jdub said there were only 30-35 pieces.
You need to wait the second batch.

That is correct. Thankfully the first batch sold quickly enough that Simon agreed to produce a second batch. I will post an update when they are available.

When will the SMO reflector be available again?

Same L6 but in the short version with the L2 XHP50 FETDD guppydrv. ver.1 driver Glass Bead Blasted and Polished :smiley:

Man Scott, I don’t know if I’ve expressed this enough but those may be the most gorgeous L series builds out there. I can’t help but stare in awe! :money_mouth_face: :+1:

I don’t know what it’d cost but a Titanium L6 would be freakishly spectacular!

Great theme friends! I am looking for my next modification and I have in sight a Convoy L2 with XP-G2 dedomed, but I interested ah move to the one L6 with XP-G2 dedomado … that interesting everything I read.
Thanks for sharing

I have one from Dale , which is making 439kcd if i remember correctly.
Personally , i would use dedomed xp-l v6 , throw won’t be over 350kcd but it will have 2k lumens too.

Pretty sure the de-domed XP-L V6 won’t do 2000 lumens. Maybe 1600. Since the die is essentially an XM-L2 die it’s likely it would be doing good to make 330Kcd, but if every last trick is pulled it might fare a little better. Would be interesting to see how it stacked up huh? :wink:

A comment from Mitko about Lumens : Convoy L2/L6 modding thread - #67 by Mitko

If i understand right , there isn’t a big loss from dedoming the emitter . ( I haven’t tested it my self , xp-ls hate me when i try to dedome them )

There is a loss when de-doming, and many times you lose the entire emitter when trying.

And that is a quote on the new XP-L W2, not the V6. I’ve seen the W2 make 2000 lumens and a little, but the V6 won’t do it. The W2 is not so easy to acquire.

And, no offense to Mitko, but his numbers always are higher than anyone elses. I know, they said that about me for a long time, but if Mitko’s numbers are even higher than mine, after all the crap I’ve taken over my own high numbers, well……

Mine are always lower :stuck_out_tongue:

Not a very good thing when you’re into modding :smiley: I verified it once again with your L6 …

Yeah I know the feeling! I do back flips and cartwheels, if the thing even (emits light) Turns ON! :smiley: :+1:

So I’m about to pull the trigger on an L6. I’m going to get the full flashlight and swap in a XHP70 P2 1C and use the original XHP70 in something else.

Should I just go with RMM’s 30mm L6 driver? Is it hard to reprogram? And which 26650s? I’d prefer to buy them from RMM so I can get them before Christmas.

The stock driver is quite good unless you just want to go for max output. In the mid range modes the stock driver will be better.

If you want max output the Texas Avenger 30mm should be ready shortly. I have the PCB’s, just don’t have the parts and waiting for a few updates in narsil to release it. Or you can build it yourself as well, I am selling the PCB’s bare as well due to how much they cost from Oshpark.

T_A, bout how long do you anticipate until they’re ready?

Also might need to ask you about some other drivers - I need one for my TR-J20 - 12x XM-L2, 3x 32650s, going for max output.

Well the PCB’s are ready now if you want to build it yourself. Not sure when I will have the funds to get the parts to build them myself.

Narsil works now, it could just use a few tweaks.

On the J20, what size driver is it setup for? Also, will you be wiring the LED’s in 3s4p?

The J20 has roughly a 46mm driver (maybe even exactly 46mm), and yeah I’d run the LEDs in 3S4P.

I don’t really want to build the driver myself. Too much going on and I’m still getting used to the loss of my near vision. Getting old sucks.

Well thats great then, you can simply use the SRK drivers for it. You would need to use the LDO version of the SRK driver which I do not have any PCB’s for though.

There are other SRK drivers as well naturally but you need to make sure thay have an LDO.

I will see what parts I have left, been meaning to go through them. I think I have enough laying around to put together 1 or 2 drivers.

Maukka already has dibs on the first one, I will see if I have enough parts for a second. You can keep an eye on the thread in my sig.
