Glad to see you back CK. After not seeing you post for a few weeks, I began to fear you had fell ill.
Now if we only knew if Comfy is doing ok. He hasn’t posted in forever.
it was pretty much just to try out, i dont have any resistors at the moment but i have some on order. when i the ship is ready to be changed i will do it all at one go.
thanks for the firmware tips i am having a look into them. i looked at the luxdrv-30b code but i have not got enough time to do enough reseach.
finaly added some beamshots. they are crappy quality i had to take them with my phone.
The beam looks pretty pleasant to me. 
simple and great mod, thank you!
No the beamshots are great. I really need to learn how to take beamshots with my phone now.
Wow that is great find man! I wonder how did you guys find these TK35 clone variations since they do not have a specific brand? Did you guy actually filtered through all the categories and checking page after page?
I guess that is the only way, you can only be certain by looking at the pictures, since their brands/models/descriptions are pretty random. Based on my experience (on purchasing other things), I bet if they are to be found at TaoBao, their prices will be much cheaper than at AliExpress, but sifting through the listings gonna take hours if not days.
When I’m really bored at work, I do a search through the flashlights and select “newest” for the sort order. Then I just scroll and scroll and scroll until I see something interesting.
This is awesome. 
TexasToasted,
Good find, thank you very much for posting,
That is great. 
dentillozie, can you please kindly help me to confirm that if the New-117 reflector is same as the XM-L C8 reflector in diameter and depth? Much appreciated.
bibihang,
They are not the “same” but the 117 will take the c8 OP reflector I tried, the c8 was just a shade smaller but the pill screwing into the head easily accounts for small changes.
The 117 reflector will not fit in a c8 do to the reflector being attached to the approx 43mm head ID threaded portion size.
Thanks for the information Ronin42. The outer diameter of the 117 reflector is a tad bit bigger than the C8 one?
Thank you.
I’m not in a position to answer your question directly, but please take a look at JohnnyMac’s measurements and reflector pictures over here: JohnnyMac - Review: UniqueFire UF-F10 (Fenix TK35 clone) If you weren’t familiar with the light you might not realize that the reflector has a large threaded portion which is physically part of the reflector.
Hey thank you wight. I read this review quite some time ago but I forgot about it, thanks for bringing this up and JohnnyMac’s review is really helpful.
I hope this helps.
reflector:
C8 (non deep version)L=31.46mm
C8 (non deep version)W=41.80
TK35 clone L=31.19
TK35 clone W=42.67
about the same specs as in the articial.
As the TK35 clone does not use a case as a ground like the C8 be sure not to electrically (ground/short) the reflector to the emitter. The Clones factory reflector uses the large threaded (reflector pill) section to hold the reflector in place, which is not like the pinch style used in the c8’s.
my hunch is there is less variation in the TK35 clones then in “C8’s” as we know the actual design specs of c8”s change depending on who builds them.
The information is very helpful Ronin42, thanks a lot for that.
I might buy one soon or later, and before that happen I need to make some cash flow arrangement first.
the tk35 clone reflector has a big ring at the outside. a C8 reflector wil give you a bit better throw i think. but im not sure you would be able to see it. maybe with a XM-L, but not with the MT-G2. i dont have a C8 reflector or light at the moment so im not able to test.
