Super! Can you do it for a C size for mine, instead of the D?

I've got a Solarforce L2P and I'd be interested in stuff that can allow my UltraFire XML drop-in to make better contact, I'll also be interested in a new empty pill which makes better contact to the sides (but what reflector would I then use) and I'll also be interested in a empty pill which could take a triple led board, and driver board at the bottom.
Can we perhaps get a few rough design sketches? I'm new to flashlights, and the jargon and concepts still confuses me sometimes.
Thnx for your effort!
I am talking to the guy about the mag heatsinks at the moment. I will prob do a run of these, and then look at doing something for the p60. Unfortunately there is not a lot of room to do much in the way of heatsink mass, but I have an idea for a better pill. Only problem is there are slight differences to hosts, so I may have to do something specific to say solarforces.
I will keep you all posted on progress.
thanks for the update
Watching again since all watching posts got reset.
I think custom P60 Heatsinks, something similar to how the Malkoff M60 looks like would be cool.
I'm yet another person in for D size sinks that work with the Rebel reflector. I was just going to hack up an H22A sink so that it sits further down in the tube, either by chopping off the "post" or the lips so the entire thing slides further down.
If you could make basically an H22A without the post and at the right depth to allow the head to thread almost fully on the body, that would be awesome! :)

I'd be in for a few, depending on the price.
Looks like a heatsink for a D mag with rebel reflector and some type of p60 are the top 2 things.
Two questions
1) would you want the heatsink to be for a standard mag with the rebel reflector, or the rebel mag? They are different so will need to be made different.
2) do you want it flat top or with a post? From my experience the rebel reflector will focus well without the opening being recessed past the led, and a flat top would give more star options and let you use a 20mm star for better heat management. If you need to sink it more to focus you can shave off a little on the reflector. This generally will not hurt the beam.
I think a flat top would be fine. I actually use the 12.8mm XM-L's from IlluminationSupply and it would work awesome with just a flat top as it fits in the reflector opening perfectly.
I didn’t realize the LED Mag and reg. Mag differed in size. How much difference is there? Is it slight enough that you could build the the bigger one and we could file/sand, etc . . . to fit the smaller one? We are talking different body diameters, right?
I would want the heatsinks for the incandescent Mag D's. I didn't think that there was any significant difference in the ID of the mag body, but a difference in the dimension between the switch and the end of the body. I don't have a Mag led to compare with, hopefully someone here can confirm this or tell me I am full of it and should lay off the crack for a while.
In terms of post/flat top, I would prefer flat top. This will make for easier modding and easier upgrades when the next generation emitter is released.
And thanks again for putting in the time, effort and leg work to put this together for us.
I'd like to see an aluminum heat exchanger "collar" that would press fit onto a Solarforce L2 head. Ideally it would run the full length of the head from the anti-roll flats to the bezel and have fins tall, thin, and densely packed enough to be a functional heat exchanger. Most of the finning I've seen on lights looks to be too shallow, thick, and spaced too far apart to be anything more than decorative.
It seems to me that adding mass inside the head (big copper pill, etc.) only delays the light getting hot while a properly designed heat exchanger would shed the heat to the surrounding air so it doesn't get the chance to build up.
Sound reasonable?

Tony, are you spying on me ?
I started working on that very item last night. 
Must be a heck of a thrower and pair of binoculars I've got to see into somebody's workshop in Chicago from Charleston.
I'm really interested to see what kind of results you get. That idea has been lurking in the back of my head for awhile but with no lathe I've had no way to build one and test it. A001 head is the closest I've come and the fins on it are more decorative than functional.
I would be all over that!
Definitely flat top for incan Mags!
I would be in for C and D heatsinks.
Been working all week, so no time to get anything worked up. Looks like the first thing will be a mag rebel flattop heatsink for a D mag. When it gets closer I will try to get an accurate count so I know how many to run.
Did find time tonight to put together a P60 aspheric with an ahorton lens. Used an XRE driven at 1.4 amps in a solarforce L2P. I must say that it has a killer amount of throw and is much more useful than I used to think of them. I have a 300 foot long driveway, and the amount of light it puts on the trees out by the road is impressive.
Cool u235, glad to hear the rebel D mag heatsink will be the first. I’d suggest making it take up most the space in the mag body up to the top of a sanded down switch. The h22a heatsinks could have about 50% more mass if they went deeper into the body of the mag closer to the top of the switch. Still need enough room for drivers but maybe offer one with a deep recessed cavity for tall drivers and one with a shallow cavity for smaller drivers?
