Let me guess: XM-L U3 from LED-Tech?
My HD201 from Tmart sequence goes like this: Press fully to turn ON, always starts on High, half press to cycle through, Med - Low - Strobe - SOS. With flashlight turned ON, half press for at least 3 seconds on ANY mode and it will return back to high.
My modded HD2010 has now 120000 Lux 8)
âŚdedomed.
With: XM-L U2, 7135driver=3,7A, UCLp
before dedome it was 57000 Lux.
where did u get the ucl from?
I buy a little bit bigger one from flashlightlens ( UCL*p* ) and use a rasp.

Andi, what method did you use to dedome it? I dedomed my ZY-T13 using the ârun it till hot and peel off the dome with your fingernailâ technique but the lux didnât change. I still only get 39k out of it. Horrible!!
I use a razor blade and cut in the dome a little bit on the opposite side of the bonding wires. Then use tweezer, hold star and press the dome directly on a cookplate(full power) for 25sec.
Then lift the dome with fingernail at the cut.
Most time it works perfectly.

When you say a âcookplateâ are you talking about the stove top? As in red hot glowing element?
translator sayâŚ.yes, i have a ceramic/glass stove(hob). 0:)
I have an extra xm-l u2 on star and an HD2010 and a ceramic top stoveâŚ.
Any guesses what Iâm trying tonight?
Iv got a U2 led & a 4amp (intl outdoor) driver firstly will the 4a be overdriven with the U2 & secondly whatâs the easiest way to sandwich the smaller driver in? This will be my first proper Mod iv only just replaced my small sun C10 driver to a 105c successfully yesterday has some good THROW now! Cheers in advance for any help!

Do you have a link for the driver to get an idea of the size?
Think itâs this one http://www.intl-outdoor.com/4a-3mode-2745v-circuit-board-p-546.html will that work?
Its the same driver I've had here for a couple of weeks but have not had time to use it yet. I have modified my stock pill slightly and have a driver in it at the moment so cant tell definitely if it will fit, but a quick measurement and eyeball I reckon it will squeeze in ok without any mods.
I have that same driver in my cart right now, with a few other bits and pieces. Havenât pulled the trigger yet though. It seems like the perfect driver to use when you want to over-drive an XM-L, but within reason.
Nice one I will investigate soon, you guys reckon its worth swapping the current LEd for the U2? With that driver or keep current one. As for the spring can I just de solder the old one off & re-solder to that board. Or is there something else i can use for the contact?
I have had both in and the stock led if you like the tint is pretty good.

Using the old spring is probably fine, assuming the base lines up well enough with the contacts. You can pretty much make it work no matter what if youâre creative. While youâre shopping at IO though, throw an assortment of springs into you cart as well. If youâre gonna be modding, theyâll come in handy. In fact you might as well just go through the entire Torch components section and pick up at least one of anything you think you might ever need. You know, tail boots, contact PCBâs, brass pills etc. Because it sucks having to wait 2 weeks when you finally need something like that.
Most of all, have fun!
Yup realised this now i think il order a small assortment of things! Probably a new driver for one of my bike lights too as it decided to die on me last night!! Damn!! Thanks for all the advice guys too
