Well, if it does happen, (I am waiting on an answer from Tmart), then part of it could be how to make a Copper center core for the stock Aluminum pill.
We could get a member with a lathe or cut off saw to take a stick of 3/4" copper rod and cut lengths off and then we just drill out the Aluminum pills and press in the copper rod. It would be something like I would do with hand tools and it should not cost an arm and a leg, maybe.
From what I have just read in the last few posts I would not be surprised if the same branded light has a different thread size batch to batch. I have two early HD2010 from different manufacturers and the pill size measures around about the same. Just keep in mind that Chinese thread sizes have extreme tolerances and that some pills you could screw in with a throw at 100 yards.
Very good point. I favor just a Copper insert pressed into the Aluminum pill. It’s just for heat sinking anyhow. Some place for the heat to go. That’s all Copper is for in a flashlight… Oooops, I am going off topic. Back to light selection…
Well, I’m not sure my half joke post was taken seriously, but if most who like the HD2010 idea agree, I’d find it amusing to have the deal be on the Uranusfire model, just for fun, and it would make a “different” light for those who have one or two already!
Tang was good enough for the astronauts, it’s good enough for me. Roll the dice and see if we get an East92. I vote for grey (’Cus it’s not an option that’s been offered) Actually, all my lights are black. Anybody up for grey or bronze. Worst case scenario I’ll bake it brown.
Mostly positive results stated by members with the tangsfire. Only a few of us have received a weaker version of the tangsfire hd2010. Still worth it even with a sub-4A drive.
That way I can do a comparison review and then decide on one for the group buy.
Yep, it takes longer, but it does make sense. It is good to be able to look each one over, check fit and finish, try them out for Copper pills, test amp draws, modes and then pick the best of the bunch for the GB.
Anyhow, I will keep everyone posted as to when the lights are coming and I will do the comparison review as soon as they do.
