This is my first thread, and I don’t speak English, so please be gentle.
First, I want to thank the BLF Forum and all members here, I’ve learned so much from you all, I’m an active reader here.
I’ll share my mod here, I’m a fan of e-switch light because of it’s Firmware (Narsil & Anduril)’s due to its rich features, and a built-in rechargeable light.
Here’s one of my latest mod, Inspired from a thread by CRX , and this took me almost two weeks to finish and I’m very happy with the final result. I call it SLMicro Clone, or SLMicro II (CRX will sue me)
Material:
- Sandalwood (Aromatic Wood family)
- 1mm thick brass sheet
- 200mAh Li-po battery 751723 30C
- 16mm sanded Copper DTP MCPCB
- 3mm thick copper chunk soldered under MCPCB
- 9.8mm diameter glass lens and OP reflector (taken from Singfire SF-364 AAA Bullet Flashlight)
- handmade 12mm brass reflector bezel ring
- M2 brass removable nut screw (for lanyard/keychain)
- PC-Clear Epoxy, Dextone, & Superglue
Parts (Driver, Charging Circuit, Switch, & Emitter) :
- 0.8mm thick Driver PCB (taken from 18650 protected circuit board, and stripped of all its parts). Attiny85 MCU and Charging component is solder jump together (most are airwired).
- E-Switch PCB is taken from TP4056 charging module.
- Attiny85, AMC7135, and tiny Mosfet (Dual-Channel)
- Blue 0603 Narsil standby indicator LED
- Red 0603 Charging indicator LED
- TP4057 Charging IC (set for 0.15A charging current). Charging voltage is terminated at 4.19V (It’s perfect to me)
- Female MicroUSB Socket (taken from TP4056 Module)
- Emitter is XP-G2 S3 1A 6500K (I’m a fan of cool white). I could use XP-L W2 but the reflector opening hole need to be widened, and I like the XP-G2’s beam pattern a lot.
