Adding a LASER to my D4 (and CCT adjustment, and USBC charging, and UV, and RGB...)

Flashlight Modding and DIY Parts

That’s insane! All that small custom stuff, respect.
Awesome!

3

Amazing.

4

That’s the first time I’ve seen a custom PCB cut by hand! The complete assembly is just awesome!

5

This is just… wow. I am speechless…

Ok, how about adding:

  • power bank functionality to the USB-C port
  • an LDR to sense pocket activation and to program via a computer screen
  • fan for active heat dissipation
  • accelerometer for… I have no idea but I think you need one

Excellent work! I knew this was you as soon as I saw the thumbnail on r/flashlight. :+1:

When is the group buy? :partying_face:

7

Absolutely mad!

8

And the tweezers fingers are back on business :smiley:

Impressive work! :o

9

Nice job, especially regarding the soldering :smiley:

10

:+1: :+1: :+1:

11

Now this is cool!

12

Sign me up, if ever you decide to sell these bad boys.

13

Your custom builds continue to inspire awe. I’m stunned just to see all these features together in one flashlight, but to squeeze it all into a D4 is amazing. Really great work!

14

You really excelled yourself. :sunglasses: :person_with_crown: I have never seen such a small charging circuit. I also admire your self designed and programmed driver PCB.

18 wires inside the D4 driver cavity must be a new record.

15

This build is awe inspiring. Well done. :person_with_crown:

Next stop: Now time to add aux LEDs inside the bezel and switch. :smiling_imp:

16

This is probably the coolest thing I’ve ever seen.

I’ve wanted a low power 520nm laser in a small flashlight for a while, but the closest I’ve found are the 532nm DPSS weapon lights.

Did you use another 30mW PLT5 diode?

17

Yes exactly. Those have made it way easier to make green lasers small compared to how it used to be with DPSS

18

Wow super cool dude. I have a 1 watt pocket green laser and the beam is gorgeous.

You could also do a blue which don’t have as beautiful a beam but are a lot more powerful for burning things and lighting stuff on fire. I have a 6 watt

19

You guys/gals really crack me up and amaze me.

I knew a guy on AudioAsylum, who whenever he bought a new electric/electronic device, would completely disassemble it and see what was up and then he would put it back to together.

You all remind me of him.

Touche’.

Absolutely incredible work!

So I have an Emisar 9.3 light. When you turn it on, it’s the 9 primary diodes with the normal Anduril functionality. click-click-hold switches to the other 3. There are numerous combinations of LEDs to choose from.

It would be so sweet to have 3 lasers that activate for channel 2… I’d pay mad money for something like that

Again , what you did is amazing
