If any of you guys with driver issues are interested I still have about 10 more new takeout East-092 drivers left. Jut pay shipping and I will send one or two your way. Because that’s how we roll here at BLF, PM me for more info.
That is some B.S., there is no way people should even do business with these dealers. If you wanted a used looking light, you should of gotten it for used price. I will be avoiding Lightmalls for any purchases.
I got a XinTd from Intl-Outdoor and it had a few nicks on it and they refunded me $5. That was fair. I would contact them and see what they can do for you. If nothing let people know and move on. Lightmalls will get the hint if their wallets start taking a hit.
I ordered THIS on a whim, and considering the last pile of crap Ultrafire holster I had ordered a while back, I was VERY pleased with this new one. Well made, durable, and fits a variety of different diameter light tubes, up to the HD2010. It is what my HD rides in.
My black HD2010 is here. Ordered on the 10th, arrived on the 26th, from Tmart. Only a few very minor dings on the body, which really aren’t noticeable at all unless you’re looking for them.
This is my first HD2010 and I’m very impressed with it. After modding it with a T6 3C I’m even more impressed. I’ve kept the stock driver in it for now which pulls a ridiculous 5+ amps at the tail from a freshly charged Panasonic 18650 (no doubt less than that of course when the switch is in place), but I’m planning on replacing it soon with something more suitable (should be an interesting exercise actually considering the format of the pill).
My only complaint is that the 18650 to 26650 adapter tube is a loose fit and therefore moves and rattles around inside the body. It’s easily fixed of course, but a flaw nonetheless.
If I have time this weekend, I will solder an U3 to this host. Copperbase should ease up the thermal sag but what do you Pro’s think:
should I get better driver for high power also or consider makin copper pill? (friend has a small lathe).
Or is it, that the copper star is most important and copper pill merely overkill?
