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.

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 , 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
Its good to see the CRX mods continuing. :+1:
I hate you.
(Don’t worry it’s just jealousy :D)
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 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.
Perfect. That’s what I was thinking and what my measurements said but I just wanted to double check.
Thanks for the quick response.
Bob
No problem mate :+1:
Is the head of your titanium MI7 glued?
Not any more
Was heat required or just some bicycle inner tube and some leverage required.
It is an awesome EDC light but I think wasn’t in my pocket for 30 seconds before it found it on due to that protruding switch.
Thanks,
Bob
The glue was not that strong, I ran the light hot on a 14500 and twisted the bezel off using a piece of rubber to grip.
The driver is also glued but come out fairly easy on this one.
Did you get any trits yet?
Thanks for the help. I tried with inner tube and a vise/vise grips but it wouldn’t budge.
Not yet. I am debating about what I want to do with them.
Thanks for the help.
Bob
Might need to use a bit more heat & teach it who’s boss
