There’s some stuff I know that’s not practical for Richard to stock, like the bits I need to mod a Maglite, but the next project I have I’m most likely going to him first. At this point he’s modeling his store after IOS. I’m on a buying moratorium until after Christmas, but probably first on my list is a C8 host and that 4-color XM-L/Driver setup.

You need to commission a line of 16x6mm switch boots. I'm SICK AND TIRED of adding o-rings and spacers and washers on top of the stupid 8mm tall boots only to find the switch no longer fits in the tailcap!

14x6mm boots exist, sort of... very few sources and usually only one color, that awful GITD-green. Some 14x6 black boots would be neat.

Definitely, I didn’t expect him to stock gaskets and springs which is why I ordered a bunch from cnqg. Now he pretty much has everything I’ve ever needed except for the more specialty items that are low demand.

It’s good to see a more local shop with increasing variety of goods. :beer:

@ Comfy: Interesting. I'll see what kind of boots I can procure!

@ Streamer: Sorry I didn't have any. Will have some in the next week or so, both protected and unprotected Sanyo 14500s. In the next month or so there will also be some Efest IMR 14500s.

Still working on getting everything on the site. Thanks for all of the support!

I’ll be watchin’. Sanyos for sure… :slight_smile: Thanks

Got everything up on the site now, with pictures.

A few other things coming online tonight:

  • New: Convoy S6 Hosts
  • Re-stock: AMC7135

A few upcoming projects:

  • Working on an inexpensive 4.35V charging solution. I have a few parts I'm waiting on and testing but will give an update soon.
  • Pre-built 3XP Shorty Flashlights (eta January)
  • Kit to install 3XP in Convoy S2 (eta January)

You are kicking butt and taking names :) Between you and IS, I won't need to get my modding parts from China anymore.

Have you considered offering a 105C flashing service, with a few different program options with adjustable levels per flash? It was something I was considering offering until PilotPTK showed us his new driver design, but that now has been put on hold it seems. If you're interested in doing that let me know and I (along with others here) can help you get that going.

Wow, great news! Everything you mention here is interesting to me. Keep up the awesome work Richard, should I just leave my CC on file and have you take what you need every week or so?! :slight_smile:

Parts? :bigsmile: Are you making a 4.35V charger board, similar to a lipo nano or micro lipo perhaps? Could you say what chip(s ) your thinking of?

Maybe a plug in 18650 Cradle.

I’ve been tempted to make a 4.35v dual MCP73831 based charger.

Oh dear-Neil Degrass Tyson, if you can build in a 4.3v setting as well I see myself breaking my pre-christmas buying moratorium on flashlight stuff.

Will you also stock the plastic insulation gaskets?

Imho its safer to have seperate chargers for different voltage li-ions.
Seems easier to forget to check the switch.

The label on this 4.2v, 4.35v charger pretty much says it.

4.35v skull and cross bones.

Granted 4.3v, 4.35v shouldn’t be as risky if set wrong. You do need a seperate charger IC chip and circuit for each voltage. Only saving a bit of space combining them into one unit.

It will be a dedicated 4.35v charger, not a switchable one. It will be pretty bare bones.

Fair Enough. :slight_smile:

My order came yesterday, very well packaged. Thank you RMM.

A bit of bad news:
My latest order of 500 AMC7135 was stolen or misplaced after it was delivered. It was scanned delivered and I received some other packages that fit in my mailbox but this one is missing. :(

I have enough remaining to satisfy all outstanding orders but don't have enough to offer any more for sale until I can get some more.

Boo! Sorry to hear that. :frowning:

I’ve had packages that tracking showed as delivered not actually hit the mailbox till the next day. :expressionless:
Otherwise its time for a mailbox camera. Plus remote mace.

Anxious to see this! I'd be in for one! What about 4.30v cells though? A 4.30v charger in the works? Or just "heck with those"?

-Garry

RMM doesn’t currently sell any 4.30v cells.
Be glad hes doing an inexpesive charger for the LG 4.35v cells. :bigsmile:

Do any 4.30v cells provide a higher capacity over 4.35v cells?
