@ MRsDNF - I think a Mini-Maglite glass lens "might" fit. I haven't measured yet.
@ texaspyro - 737019
OAL = Overall length
@ garrybunk - I corrected the OP. I had the wrong price there.
@ Tumbleweed48 - Mine have no kind of glue on them. They come apart at the tail cap and at the bezel, but the rest is one piece, which I was not surprised at, considering the price point.
Emitter is either XB-D or XT-E. XT-E being the more efficient of the two.
My HD 3aaa’s came with XB-D’s in them, very imperssive little emitters for being SO CHEAP.
HD also has some home lights that have “X” leds in them for like 12 bucks with tons of them in there! Thought about buying one to use for a little the rip it apart and make a new contraption. :bigsmile:
EDIT: looked at the 60w and there are 20leds in it!
Just bought a pack of these and my wife, who has no interest in flashlights so therefore my obsession is dumb and a waste of money, actually is thrilled with the one I gave her. She keeps shining it around the room and cant decide whether to put it on her nightstand or in her car. I finally scored a few points for the light hobby.
I wonder if the high and low are controlled by the resistors and if I could figure out which one is in the high circuit, I might remove it for a brighter high, with a Nichia 219 or XM-L. From the photo, anyone got any ideas??
Looks like those two 1R5 resistors are the sense resistors. They look to be wired in parallel, but can’t tell for sure. Probably does PWM for low mode.
