What did you mod today?

You are Darth Maul.

Actually my initial project name was “lightsaber”. :smiley:

Impressive, can you cap off either end and have it work as a single light or is it fixed in this dual config now?

:laughing: Very cool.

I put a Samsung L351D HICRI led in my D4 Emisar and M43 Meteor lights ;)

It’s only screwed and can be separated easily for 2 individual lights. I just unscrew the rear head and pull brass rod and copper ring out.

How’s the output and tint of the Samsung Emitters?

I’m curious about the beam, I don’t think I’ve ever read any review/tests with samsung emitters

With the medium amp draw from the meteor it seems like a pretty ideal light for those LEDs.

All hail BLF Q8 Janus, and of course FM. Nice. :+1:

Wonderful weird project Flashy Mike! :smiley:
That is lots of designing and building!

@maukka
Thanks for the links

also;

@Flashy Mike
Very cool Q8s!

@djozz
Your Sofirn C8 with grinded bezel is very cool!

That’s a very cool mod, Flashy Mike :+1: :beer: :beer:

Nicely done Mike, I was about to post up something but you made my little tinkering project look like a popsicle stick cabin job, :stuck_out_tongue: Way to think outside the box, very sweet!

Thanks, everybody!
:blush:

Oh man, I have to follow that wild mod?! I trimmed and shimmed a reverse click switch so my SingFire-75B would tailstand, put a piece of diffuser material between the reflector and the lens and pencil modded the NMM cap… It is my new go-to indoor light for after dark toilet trips.

My first published mod, go easy guys…

What does it mean?

And how have you manage to trim switch boot?

The “firmware” for this flashlight has Next Mode Memory. Every time you turn it OFF it remembers what mode it was in, next time you turn it on it skips to the next mode, very annoying. It can be forced to quickly forget by tracing a pencil lead over the capacitor that holds charge to the IC.

I didn’t mod the switch boot, but the switch itself. I just cut enough off to clear the barrel(?). When that wasn’t enough to clear the switch boot, I put a ring of Venician Blind cord between the boot and the lip it sits on. Hope that helps!

Nice mod as a first published one WARvault. :slight_smile:
I like that flashlight, I have one from when it was still Ultrafire branded.
