What did you mod today?

E.g. Here https://www.akkushop.de/de/samsung-inr18650-25s-2500mah-max.–35a-36v-37v-li-ion-akku/?gclid=CjwKCAiA9efgBRAYEiwAUT-jtPpZO-ADExdhY11vqhRnQcTA3kD5eKKL61FEserbL8z5EVKJ_2NiCBoC4SAQAvD_BwE
But I didn’t found the country “soldering iron” in the list of countrys they ship the items.

That’s very bad for HG2! Were the cells old, abused or something?

He’s a hungry person.

OK, I knew somwhere in east europe.
Shipping is expensive, but possible: Ungarn:14,90 €

Ungerne, aber doch :wink:

Yes! Hungary. Thank you!

A friend of mine that uses the HG2 also thought that read was low, he expected it to be as good or better than the 30Q. I have two of these, neither are very used cells, but not new either. The 30Q in this test was brand new, first time charged. I’ll recharge both HG2’s I have and test them both again to see if I just got something wrong…

Wieselflinkpro, I think SolderingIron is still a subsidiary Country located in the great Sahara, as a high desert country it’s population is low so shipping quotes may be difficult to find. Nice try though! :wink:

A recap on the LG cells…With both of my LG HG2 cells fresh off the charger I see 16.7A and 17.0A from the two cells as tested before on the 458 Ham’r.

I got delivery with some drivers from @Lexel today.

I modded the following flashlights:

- Astrolux MF04S with 8A Narsil Buck-Driver and Mod of battery-carryer. For the battery-carryer I used copper foil instead of a wire to make the new connection.

- Sklilhunt H03 with 3 channel FET + 7 + 1 Narsil

  • Haikelite MT09R XHP35HI Sand/Tan with 7,5A Narsil Buck-Driver (for sale in TLF in the next days)

Better he is hungry as he is thirsty. Without food you can survive more days as without something to drink.

:person_facepalming:

Language barriers, Aaaaagghh!

My favorite flashlight of all time. The Streamlight SL20X.

I think I finally did it right. Direct drive. XHP50.2 5700K

Raw aluminum version

Original Incandescent vs LED Drop In. Camera on full manual, same settings.

For 18650, VTC5D and 25S... The Best!

I got 30T's and 40T's - need to compare head to head.

You milled the adaptor?

Yes. On my new-to-me 1996 Milltronics Vertical Machining Center (which is really pis*ing me off) . Anyone here know Java Script? I need a translator. This old dog only has a couple of tricks left to learn and Java Script is NOT one of them.

Orsm video Bucket. Thanks for posting it up. Your enthusiasm is infectious and ability amazing. I have no doubt you will be on top of the programming soon. Maybe it will be a xmas present to you. :stuck_out_tongue:
You are seriously in a class above the rest of us here. :slight_smile: :beer:

I knew you would like the video :slight_smile:

Bucket’s the only guy I know that can carve a reflector out of bar stock without using a CNC machine. :wink:

Ok guys, my forgetfulness has me stumped on this one…. I have a little X5 with an AHorton aspheric on it, it uses Bistro with a 14500 cell but I can’t identify the emitter! It’s on a mtnelectronics 20mm MCPCB, sliced and diced, the substrate should clue y’all in as to what it is. I don’t recognize it to save my life…

Can anybody tell me what emitter this is?

No bond wires, no dot’s like on the Cree or Luminus emitters, it’s not a Samsung LH351D, it’s not a Nichia 219C, I just don’t recognize the dark grey/black substrate… ceramic no doubt but what is it?
