DENGOH where did you buy it? I bought one about 18 months ago at DX and came in perfect condition, nice colour, the only con is the LED’s current at around 5Amps. The rest was OK.
The seller agreed to resend me those parts with light color as the heaviest heatsink has dark color, he will need to find the parts. Let’s see how it turns out. So I won’t publish where I got the X6 at this moment, but remember to ask for good or perfect color match if you purchase X6 next time. Looks like there are some process changed that affected this.
Arghh! Almost did it last night, my pliers are 1mm away from the LED. Still struggling, do I need another thrower that can’t out throw TN31 or TK70? I am afraid it will fail or tint will shift to ugly tint.
Definitely looks more focus than my X6 and tint is still ok to me. Does your X6 out throw TN31 or TK70? I read somewhere but can’t remember clearly that de-domed X6 still can’t out throw them.
I read someone lift the dome up with sharp knife either. Looks like it is not very tightly glued at all.
But I haven’t dedome mine yet. Still waiting for the day it might happen when I suddenly have the urge to do it.
Luminous LED’s in general are a lot easier to de-dome than CREE.Cree uses a stronger adhesive.
SST-90 and 50 LED’s doent require heat IMO.You can but not much fun watching the dome slide off your flashlight
after a ping of your tweezers. XM-L’s , power up your torch and when hot its almost easy to de-dome…not quite…
