I didn’t measure it before but must have been around 11mm and 10.4mm diameter after. Had to take the labels off the Efest 10440
It does actually help move some heat down the battery tube, I have it set so the end of the copper & brass tube butts up against the pill.
It was a sacrifice I was willing to make for a tail switch, I’ll figure something out
Mate, you kill me with these mods
BTW, you still have the lanyard hole for the tritium vial :smiling_imp:
True, though I wanted to keep that free.
I have a couple 2.5mm long trits that nearly fit each side of the switch button but I would need to do a little dremeling of the slot, may do that at some point
Awesome build again. I will take it
Nice work CRX.
Thanks mate
Awesome job!!!
nice work
Proper pocket rocket, awesome work
Just gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. I'm always floored by how beautiful you make a light inside and out.

Maybe you could build the switch post (or just the exposed part) entirely from trits?
Crossed my mind, a 6mm x 1.5mm would fit nicely but wouldn’t last too long I think.
3 trits would be much stronger than 1.

This is true
Was your bezel glued? I can’t get mine off
Yes, red thread locker.
I managed to loosen the bezel (not without scratches), but now I’m stuck with the reflector. I tried holding it with a vice, but I only ended up damaging the thread. This light is not easy to work on, bummer.
It’s a bugger
I gripped the threads gently with rubber lined grips then heated the head and twisted the reflector out.
If it doesn’t come fairly easy then the glue isn’t soft/ heated enough.
Really need to be careful with the soft aluminium threads.
