Low-cost copper pills, spacers, optics, drop-ins (Updated 23/10/2022))

I had never got anything shipped from Russia. Just checked my tracking number, and man it does a lot of moving around in Russia lol. There is 19 tracking updates and its still in Russia.
Dont take this as a complaint, I just thought it was funny to see so much updates with so little movement

It is OK. It took 5 days to export, much better than 2-3 years ago.

This is how it looks … :sunglasses:

Did you use the existing driver?

Is it GITD paint? Or tritium?

Yes, GITD powder + tape and yes is the original driver.

So I really want to dip a C8 host (either black or clear) in lye and remove the anodizing after seeing an S41 stripped down that way. I bet it would look pretty cool with kiriba-ru’s custom head.

-I can not send pm to you
The VG10 drawing is good.
Please send me the paymant details :+1: -

edit
in the meantime, succeeded

I have ordered several times from kiriba-ru over the past couple months all packages have been packaged nicely and arrived in a timely manner. Machine work is great and prices are even better. Thanks kiriba-ru I will post some picture shortly.

Is the thread for the tailcap on the BLF Q8 one of the standard ones you can make, or would it be a special unit please?

If possible, I’d like to discuss making a custom tailcap for this light.

I had plans for custom Q8 tailcap, I wanted to make longer one to fit reversed tube in 2S2P mod. I passed this idea. Q8 tail is not something that I would like to made in small quantities.

No problem - thanks for the quick reply!

I finally had a chance to open the package I received a couple days ago, everything was very well protected as usual.
Very nice machining on the s2+ pill, and the thin retaining ring looks like it will have no problem clearing any spring-side component. The X6 spacer fits very snugly in the head.

I received my C8 “turbohead” the other day securely packed as always from kiriba-ru.:

I build it using Nichia 219C D240 4000K 90+ CRI emitters and a MTN-20DDm FET + 7135 Driver with Bistro.

I don’t have a Convoy V2 so I used a Sofirn new C8 host

I does work with the Mini C8 tube from Jax but I would not recommend it because the threads are shorter :

The machining and fit and finish is excellent :

The heat sinking is great, it’s cold and windy in Denmark these days, but I used it 10 minutes on high with a fresh VTC5A walking the dog without it stepping down.

We have a saying in Denmark that translates to something like : “More special than pretty” I think that describes the design very well, but I like it .

The tube with the best fit I think is the Sofirn, maybe I will strip the ano of the tube and tail cap, and bead blast it for a more uniform look

Very unique product thanks for making it avaible, it is by far the most “special” in my collection.

Edit :

I haven’t tested the water tightness other than I used it to break the ice on my dogs water bowl and accidentally dropped it in, so at least in shallow water it’s waterproof.

I received the s2+ pills yesterday. Thanks Kiriba-ru. The shipping only took a week and a half, I was expecting a month or so. Happy camper here.

Got my p60 neck with s2+ pill, p60 quad drop in, and couple s2 triple spacers yesterday. All look great.

Glad to have snagged the last p60 neck. Very unique piece and is going to make a great little (but heavy) light once I get the components in

Got my S2+ spacers today. Really fast with only 9 days shipping. Everything looks great!

This week arrived, as always everything was great. :+1: :smiley:

Great service. Thanks. Much quicker than I expected and a great price.

Now you can get S2+ pill, P60 shelf or Mag D driver adapter with Convoy retaining ring cheaper than ever.
