I can give it a shot. I haven't successfully uploaded a video yet.
What sounds more interesting though is paralleling 2 of the slow flashers like djozz paralleled 6 in the lighted tailcap thread. Lexel's post here makes it look like an easy mod. An I just saw Lexel has posted an OSH Park board for 4 independent emitters here.
If you don’t want to use youtube you can use http://imgur.com or https://gfycat.com - It’s a lot easier as long as its under a minute in length.
I almost ordered the board but since I’d be guessing and winging it at best I figured I’d wait and see how other people build it first.
It's ok, no prob. I'll just slowly fade away..... 
Replaced by a newer, younger, no doubt prettier, and probably smarter programmer. 
Ohh - on the 3rd modded Q8, got this: 7,110 @start, 6,510 @30 secs Dang!! All 3 within 200 lumens of each other, and again, not touching the LED's, LED wires, or FET.
Should be possible to hit 1,800 lumens per LED (7,200). Thinking the LED wires to 16 AWG and FET to SIR404DP, maybe improvements under the MCPCB (better grease, sand surfaces to 2000-2500 GRIT.
Tom E Ohh - on the 3rd modded Q8, got this: 7,110 at start, 6,510 @30 secs
I’m going to have to try my first mod, Spring bypass seems easy enough.
Placed an order for the minimum qty (3) and the price was $0.95 with standard USPS shipping. Currently going through the posts to find the switch and resistor related comments.
@Tom E
I can not measure the lumens but the Amps. How much Amps did you get at 7110?
Would be interesting if i am near that result.

Ordered those boards too, only thing i’m not sure about is the switch. The leds I ordered 0603 and the resistors 0805 (might be too big those?).
This is the right switch (https://www.banggood.com/50pcs-4x4x2_5mm-Waterproof-Copper-Button-SMD-Tactile-Tact-Micro-Push-Switch-4-Pin-p-1024026.html?rmmds=myorder).
They also have one with a shorter nob. But then you will have a loose fit with the silicone cap.
Has someone measured the original SW board thickness?
This listing shows worldwide shipping and seems to be a similar switch.
edit: these are 5x5… arrgh! wish i had checked for new comments. well, it was less than $5 wasted.
Well, I'm not set up to measure amps for those tail MCPCB mods. I could swap tubes with the prototype that does have the clamp meter loop, see how close it performs in lumens, and if close, then can use it to measure amps. Thinking it's in the 20A-22A range though for these kind of numbers, based on my proto measurements.
Thanks for posting this. I just did the same with 22AWG. I didn’t go as far as soldering the traces, but I got a significant bump.
Lexel, what is the thickness of these boards? Oshpark does not tell me.
The stock board is 1mm thick, but if they are the same thickness as the drivers that I’m used to (1.5mm?) they stick out of their gap in the Q8-head a little, which could cause the silicon cap not fully touch the rim and this could theoretically make it less waterproof, plus that the retaining ring does not screw in fully.
The board supports a 5mm switch and the original is 5mm
you have to order the 2 OZ boards as they are thinner
1OZ are 1.6mm thick and
2OZ are 0.9mm thick
:+1: thanks, did not know that option.
Any suggestions on a starting point for the resistor value for the Lexel designed switch boards?
Ordered 3x 4led-version for 83 eurocents shipped. Oshpark is loosing money with these small boards we make on BLF 
.
@tekwyzrd
At Banggood you get 50 switches for about 2$. I have them and use them. Working like they should and are cheaper than on ebay.
And because each led has its own resistor i would start with something about 30K. Depends on the led voltage and desired led brightness.
Thanks Tom. So with 21,8A i am near that result.
Thanks djozz! I could not remember for sure. But i thought the board was thinner. Thats why i asked. Happy that i waited with the order.
it depends how bright you want them
some colors are dimmer than others with same resistor value
basically everything from 2.2k to 100k should work well
What would it take to add a ‘dragon breath’ effect to the switch leds?
