Klarus Mi7 Ti - Mods

:+1:

pray tell what the green is? Was your light tarred and feathered? Nice contrast with the green and the dark. If the green is some kind of paint I would like to do it in yellow on my black Mi7.

that’s a nice looker!

Thanks mate, the green is glow in the dark powder mixed with resin, didn’t get it quite as good as i had hoped so may redo it but yeah it’s something a bit different for me to try. The stuff round the LED is GITD sticky tape. I was also thinking a small trit in each of those grooves either side of the switch would be good but none left just now.

:sunglasses: mod, very helpful idea.

Thanks for getting me a good price on the light :+1:

No problem…when mine arrives, I will re-visit this thread and perhaps will be my first foray into a little modding.

I know how much of hassle it is to lock-out each and every time…or I will just use the bigger holster of my EA11 to avoid accidental turn-on.

Very nice, CRX. Love your mods. What size trit did you use? Did you have to machine the switch any, or did you just use the existing recess?

Thanks very much, it is a 6mm x 1.5mm vial covered with UV glue.
I had to dremmel a groove out of the switch to have it recessed, it was a real pain to do but turned out ok.The black stuff in the cutouts is JB Weld. I wasn’t happy with the GITD stuff.

Very cool mod CRX! :+1: :+1:

I wish I could do it on mine Olive Mi7, but I’m still a (not that skilled) newbie. :blush:

Thanks mate, maybe one or two 6mm x 0.65mm trits with some uv glue would go nicely in the existing groove, just a thought.

Thanks for the tip Stevi :slight_smile: , but I’m affraid I’ll just screw it up if I try to do such a mod. My fingers are anything but small/steady and I’ve never been good at glueing (and dealing with) very small parts.

I really prefer this version ! The trit embedded in the switch is really smart !

Yes it’s much better, thanks :beer:

Its good to see the CRX mods continuing. :+1:

I hate you.

(Don’t worry it’s just jealousy :D)

:laughing:

Very nice mod. I love what you did with the switch.

Can you recommend a source for the Trits? My olive green Mi7 needs some bling.

Thanks,

Bob

Thanks mate, FastTech has some tritium options :+1:

Thanks for the recommendation. They have a huge selection.

When you say “existing groove” you are referring to the four existing that are parallel to the switch correct?

Thanks,

Bob

Yeah that was my original idea, I had ordered two 6mm x 1.5mm vials but they were too wide to sit in the grooves at either side so I decided to dremmel out the actual switch to make one fit.

I also thought one or two of the 6mm x 0.65mm trits could sit in the existing switch groove and be covered by a dome of UV glue but they would probably be better in the slots each side of the switch as it protrudes enough already.
