Some nice modding there Haukkeli. What is the beam like?
Very nice actually. Picture at ~1, 5m
Nice mod, it is a bit like the Sofirn triple C8 that they used to sell (they still do?). Did you use a triple MCPCB or or three separate ones?
Three separate 16mm ones.

Sweet idea jon !! Very nice accent and you gave everyone new options to mod lights and lanterns. :sunglasses:

Great mod Haukkeli :+1:
Can you post more pics please

Sorry, I donāt have any photos of it being dismantled and itās quite tricky to assemble after being in parts. Only other mod I have on it is pocket clip from Convoy store and spring bypasses. Those reflectors are filed down to correct diameter and then connected with JB weld.
Same C8+ showing the clip.
Thatās an interesting take on a triplet. Combining 3 x S2+ reflectors plus the aluminium spacer gives me ideas.
Not described but I presume much fiddling to have the 3 separate MCPCBs and reflectors all ligne up. Nice workmanship!
It wasnāt that hard. MCPCBās move nicely on top of a spacer when there is enough thermal paste and you havenāt yet pushed them all the way down.
If I was hinted at this mod about a year ago, I would have undertaken it. I had ordered a Sofirn C8F with the 3 LH351D emitters ā but was lost in the shipping. After a much longer wait, Sofirn agreed to send another. However, they had no more in stock and I had to wait some more for the manufacturing schedule. All in all, 158 days (~5 months).
Aftermath: But in the following days of that 2nd order, so mysteriously showed up the 1st order. So now have 2 lights.
My stock lights donāt heat up much on high ā 1800lm. On turbo (3600lm) itās a different story. If yourās doesnāt heat up at these levels, I would suspect the shelf extension may not be transferring thermally to the head sides. Does it have much contact with the bowl? Nevertheless, the Sams are tough emitters and are a great choice. All milky white and just the right balance between throw and flood.
I use them on my bike. Best combo of throw with spill. Mostly on High with some moments on Turbo, and after some 2 to 2Ā½ hours, change to my second unit.
It heats up, but it takes quite a while. That spacer is heavy piece of aluminium.
Thermal mass is the key to drawing the hotspot(s) of the emitters. Cooling fins only good if the air is circulating about.
But does the adapter fit nicely against the bowl? Drawing to the shelf may take some time.
Iām quite sure. I made contact surfaces extra carefully with lathe. It just takes time to heat that metal.
thank you for taking the time to post kind and encouraging words
the glow is very fun
latest mod AAA Thrunite Ti3 to LH351d 2700k w Pebbled Tir:
Happy 4th of July Holiday 
I was going to edit that last entry.
The Samās are good tough Leds. I had modded it to a small 14500 host and ran it at max. The heat got the expansion to pop out my friction fit / plastic lens and some damage to the reflector. But it always kept going.
Hey, that would be some machining skill to have a matching parabola cone.
Kudos!
Well, I have to admit thatās way above my skills. My problem is that I have basic skills in many areas, but Iām master of none. Metalworking, electronics etc.
Nice mod Haukkeli! Iāve often thought about modding my already modified C8 into a triple or quad, but itās the spacer that I canāt make let alone custom reflectors. Very creative and looks very cool!
Itās been done before, but I wanted one for myself. FW3A raw converted to an FW1A, by drilling a couple holes, reflowing an sw40 219B, no-FET firmware. SS FW1A bezel. Turned out great, throwy, perfect tint and UIāone of my favorite lights.
Very nice! Is that the original FW1A reflector?
