I know what you mean but I don't know that it's entirely possible when working with these budget flashlights. There's gonna be differences from host to host.
Maybe it can get better but I don't think your gonna get them all just right when the host manufacturers have such high tolerances.
I'll be ordering more EagleEye X6's (they seem to be better quality) pretty soon and I'll measure each one and report back.
These are great heatsinks already so having an average set of measurements from each brand of host is the only way I can see them getting better.
Yes, I know that this problem exist. Sometimes copper is too soft and few last threads are trying to be bended instead of cutted. Will try to fix this in next batches.
Host from 6061T just pretends to be harder than copper. I have met problems when I used to use host for test how does pill fit. After operations that you have described with hundred of pills it had much larger threads than new one.
Completed the build with triple nichia 219C cri 80+ with LD-3 9Amps driver. Brass ring needs to be filed to make clearance for moonlight parts and prevent shorts on others parts of the driver. I filed too much on the brass ring. Lucky i have spares. Happy with the build.
I think it will be better if the pill has the 2 notches like the original for screwing it in. If i want to unscrew the pill sometimes only the brass ring gets unscrewed and not the pill.
1 copper B-158 pill. $14
1 led link 35mm punch optic. $ 3
1 shipping under 100g $ 6
Total $23
If this correct please pm and I’ll send payment and address. Thanks. Any chance you’ll do more A6 pills (as in your avatar)? They may not make sense but they sure look good.
Bought one of his quads off e-bay months ago. It sat for a long time awaiting other parts. When I finally went to assemble it (still in original packaging), found the domes off 3 of the emitters and one of the emitters damaged. Tried to work with him through ebay but he refused to do anything. That’s pretty poor customer service.
Those who have real problems and use other way to communicate, we fix them asap.
Cheaters that cant provide any proofs for three month can go their way.
Picked my S2+ triple pill and optics up from the post office yesterday, great packaging, complete with a handy storage box
Screws into my existing S2+ host fine and the LD-3 driver fits nicely, although I may have to shave a little off the retaining ring to get a bit more clearance on the moonlight components (not a problem with the ring, just my choice of driver ).
Just need the green host and triple 219C to arrive now!
Kiriba, you may want to change the S3 inclusion from these threaded spacers. Current S3 have the integrated shelf for the emitter. Or include (Old Version)
Will work in the new S3 with integrated shelf but without a glass lens.
Still working on my copper collection from you. May make another order when the M2 Quad are back. Some nice new additions.
Yep, I had this message (Old Version) on ebay, have lost it moving here.
Not sure about spacer. Convoys have 2 reflector dimentions and S3 should have similar one to S2+. Need more feedback (some members have bought this spacers in 5-10pcs quantity, Im sure somebody else have mod his S3).
