What did you mod today?

Haha.
Yeah I wasn’t sure if it was TOT or ToT…

Lumintop Tool AA Nichia 219C 4000K on copper 16mm KD MCPCB - Convoy 105c 7x7135 driver, potted. 590lm.
Also installed a better switch, bypassed and rubber boot.

Your Tool is nicer than mine… except the clip :wink:
How did you fit a 17mm driver in this host while keeping it working ?
Also, where did you find this rubber boot ? It’s classier than stock IMO

I sanded the driver down, just enough to fit and shortened/reamed the pill a couple mil. I don’t normally keep the clips on, still thinking about it :wink:
These boots are better quality:

Also swapped in an SST-40 & cyan glow surround in the DQG Slim Ti extension tube light for around 1500lm max from a Sanyo UR14500P. I didn’t like the LH351D 4000K in this light.

Damn CRX, damn :sunglasses:

CRX is slowly taking over this thread :smiling_imp:

Nice work mate :+1: You’re a master modder :crown:

CRX—- It’s great to see you still have a passion for modding lights—- I have all kinds of host and parts laying around—The get motivated to build them is the hard part—————- :beer: :beer:

Not a master yet, always practising though :smiley:

It’s quite easy to get motivated, you just need to substitute one thing for another until it becomes habit. Starting is always the most difficult part. I just swapped spending nights in the pub or watching tv to doing other stuff that I find satisfying.

CRX I usually doesn’t modify much (I often do not have some part), but recently I have modded astrolux s41. I wanted to put a picture in this thread, but then you spilled a few your mods and I was a bit embarrassed to show it.

Don’t be like that mate, never judge yourself by others. There are plenty of guys out there better than I am at this too, most probably seldom showing their work. So let’s see this s41 :slight_smile:

Don’t be embarrassed! Did you see the first post that started this thread? It doesn’t get much simpler than that.

All mods (and questions about anything flashlight-y) are welcome here.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Everyone in this forum was a novice once.
Enjoy your first step. And (maybe) share it with us.

CRX is an awesome dude for sure, helped me out many times and worked his magic for me, really is a top chap of the highest order! :sunglasses: Yet me, mr ven swaps the odd boot or optic! :person_facepalming: I am the embarrassed one, get your mod up :+1:

You know what, guys? I had once a few other hobbies, but only in this forum I feel a nice atmosphere.
Only change to triple led. Soldered directly to pill. I hate the original beam.

Very cool, which flavour nichia have you gone for? :sunglasses:

Looks good!

You have some sludge on your emitter domes. It may be worth it to clean them with some isopropyl. Sometimes emitters can literally melt down if the foreign object is too big

Cool, that’s what moddin’s all about Chatika vas Paus :+1:
I was half expecting a magnet duct taped to the light or something :smiley:
Soldering looks better than mine too :slight_smile:

Thanks.
This is 219b 5000k.
I cleaned as much as I could. I never manage to clean completely, something always stays.

Very nice! I have converted a couple s41 and s42 to triples…best mod for the lights. I hated the beam of the astrolux quad.
