Convoy designed me (us) a hunting flashlight (L21B)

I am curious Funtastic, can you guys “legally” hunt deer at night in New Zeland??

It’s 26mm so it’ll fit even if it can’t clamp in all the way.

This needs some major adjustments though for the Osram LEDs, but okay for the Luminus SFT40.

The focus is way out and the reflector needs lifting up. I’ve been modding these for my store and they’ve been selling like crazy. I made $1500 in two days, that’s usually 1 month of sales right there.

You can’t use the 8A Convoy driver since it doesn’t have a positive spring so you’ll dent in the batteries from the recoil and possibly damage the driver over time. Okay as a handheld though.

Pressure switches are in production.

Check out my YouTube videos of the Osram culpm1, cslnm1, and green, red

If you have a bit of modding experience you can turn this into the best budget gun light available

I don’t personally, but yes, very much so

Good info, thank you. :white_check_mark:

I have been using a C8F with my AR for raccoons and short range coyotes. For my longer range stuff, bolt guns and magnified optics I use an XHP-50.2 that I built that is well focused and driven pretty hard off of 2 26350 cells. Something like this new L21 might be and interesting replacement for that kind of work. Last time I checked, we can’t use real night vision in IL also no suppressors, so the big 6mm-284 does not get used often at night and I can only light out to about 400 yards and still use my 8x32x optics. Plus the darn thing goes so fast that I am not sure what a suppressor would really do for it.

Does this L21A and L21B reflector is physically same and cam be interchangeable on these 2?

Same diameter but not interchangeable. The L21A’s reflector rests on a shelf, the L21B pushes down against the mcpcb

Just read this topic, in fact I’ve just received this new light the other day, and I would like to improve the beam on it, because now it’s got like two donuts , I would prefer only one ,more concentrated , do you think this idea would be feasible with the gasket included ? I mean raising the reflector ? Thanks

Which led version do you have? The factory messed up the focus which is why the focus hasn’t been very good. I got the correct size gasket made for the Osram chips, it’s only the SFT40 that needs adjusting, but I’m personally quite happy with it since the large corona helps out hunting to track an animal, if it runs after the first shot. It still could be worth correcting though

I’ve bought the new version of sft40.
If you tell me there are improvements possible , that’s still good news.

Is there anyway to identify the difference between the gaskets used on sft and osram ?

SFT40 is square and the Osram’s are circular. Also the Osram CULPM1 has only a 4040 footprint, whereas the SFT is 5050

This seems to be the circular one

Circular around the LED itself? Photo?

I can take a pic, but never attached it over here, so wonder what would be the easy way to do it, I’m on my phone right now

you’ll need to upload it on a file hosting website and drop the link here.

Is it this (CULPM1) - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001417312893.html or this (SFT40) - https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32843177666.html

Sorry ,my fault, is the second one, so not for the culpm1, is the square one, at the beginning I haven’t seen the square inside the outer ring (sleepy lol); does that mean that buying new culpm1 gasket might improve the beam ?

It has the same thickness, but it won’t fit since it’s too small. No improvement. I just a play and increasing the thickness makes it much better, but haven’t yet found the correct thickness

I still wonder, how did barracuda be able have such a tight spot beam with a xplhi ,and others makers still not being able to simulate it? Maybe the end of the reflector where the led is sitting? Or what else could be? I still have others lights with different LEDs and none the same; at the beginning, there was blame that LEDs weren’t dedomed ,but now ,same issue

Maybe some kind of sheet underneath? Like a tested thickness ?
