Low-cost copper pills, spacers, optics, drop-ins (Updated 23/10/2022))

I received a M1 quad kit long time ago but haven’t started my build yet due to a small design flaw, the MCPCB “pocket” is 20mm and because the optic is larger there is no room for it to sit its legs. I think it can be an easy fix using a dremel and cutting disk attachment but I lend mine to a friend, so I’ll probably start the build some time later.

Yes I know about this problem. I had several request from users that wanted to have kit for Khatod quad but didnt had optics and havent realized that it requires “rooms” for optics legs.

You need to mill black marked areas.
Anyway you have got some rare part for good price. Ive made 15pcs only and think that this is all.

A little file work! :wink: :+1:

kiriba-ru, received my F13 copper spacer and it fits like a glove! Great doing business with you. Sorry…that kinda sounded like ebay feedback. Anyway, this beats the heck out of trying to sand down half a dozen copper disks on my end. Thanks.

I also got my order over the past couple of days. Mine came in two packages and they got split up along the way, but only by one day. Not a big deal at all, and very fast shipping overall. The parts are very nice and a great deal for the money I think, but I haven’t had time to assemble anything but my P60 shell. I’ll report back as the builds come together.

Thanks.

Quad kits for Manker U11 are ready.

I have built 2 SS triples with your X6 Spacers. It works. Just need to understand that the spacer does not touch in the 20mm emitter hole. It touches on the outer edge to the copper body. Here is a pic where it touches, marked in black.

Both of these SS Triples have Glass over optic. One Cute-SS has been sanded and polished smooth which lowered it slightly. Glass is against the smooth optic. The untouched optic has a slight gap between the Bezel and copper Head. Polished optic has no gap.



What does the simple version mean?

Aluminium X6

  1. Disassemble your U11. Remove stock reflector, mcpcb with led. Save stock wires.
  2. Use small amount of thermal grease. Put spacer inside (hole should be on the switch side). Pass wires trough hole. Use stock retaining ring to screw it and hold spacer inside, also if you can screw it down near the same level as anodized step in the host means that spacer sits in its place.
  3. Use quad 20mm pcb. Solder stock wires to it.
  4. Put carclo 24mm quad lens, brass ring around, stock o-ring over brass ring.
  5. Put over stock glass lens and screw bezel down.
    Bezel is little out from head on mine sample. This means you can use thiner pcb, or sand spacers downside a little if you would like to.
    I have spent lots of time and money on this project. Im sorry for very long production time and not very budget prices.

Kirill, I thanked you a while back for the nice packaging and the speedy shipping. Today I finally assembled the X6 spacer with my noctigon triple and the optic. Everything went together nicely and it sure produces light! Thank you.

I’ll post a picture or two tomorrow in the what did you mod today thread. The host is my brown baked EE X6

I received my first package from you today…it had one of the copper spacers…for the X5 (I believe), a brass liner, and 3 of the quad optics. My other package hit New York customs yesterday so I’m sure it’ll be here in a few days. Everything was packaged very nicely and very secure…each piece was wrapped in foam and put in a little plastic box in it’s own little section…then the plastic box was shrink wrapped. Thank you very much!! :smiley:

Third order i make and receive from Kirill , and I’m very pleased .

Everything new and as promised . Also +1000 on that very good packaging . Thanks man !

Anyone can help me with pill-less C8 internals measurements?

I have a convoy host laying around, what measurements do you need?

Is there a triple/quad optic for the C8?

Hi,

my parts came some weeks ago. Took a while to build all lights. Parts fit perfect, thanks kiriba!

Great photos Kenjii!
Im not sure that youve got pl1672 from me, anyway what do you think about the beam?

Ok, here is the best I can figure based on that picture, keep in mind that my calipers are fairly cheap so the accuracy is not super exact.

The MCPCB shelf is - 21.68mm
Depth from top of threads to shelf - 33.68mm
Depth from threads to top of shelf - 31.78mm
PCB depth - 1.9mm
Straight bore side (34.1 in your drawing) - 34.31mm

I am not totally sure what you are wanting with the 15.6 measurement, are you wanting the bore size at that depth? If so it appears to fall just on the edge of the straight bore I measured at 34.31mm. It may be very slightly wider then that due to falling right on the corner.

What optic do you have in mind for a C8 build?

Very nice! Any beam shots? Particularly of that Kathod PL1672? How does the beam compare to the stock reflector?

Hi,

no beamshots of the Kathod PL1672 at the moment and i am sure i got it from you, kiriba. I will take beamshots next time. The beam is quiet nice and broad compared to the stock X6. I had some seroius problems centering and focussing this thing. XP-L HD worked, XP-L Hi didn´t work. Ugly spot and less range. The spot is now about 4-5 times bigger than the stock X6 but much less spill. The spill is useable but decreases from the spot to the side. I have a ring in the beam from the centering adapter but this can only be seen on the white wall. It is gone after 3-4 metres distance. I hoped that the datasheet is correct but it wasn´t. The lens should do 150cd/lumen which should be about 200 Kcd, but this can not really be achieved.
