I’m already a big fan of my thrunite tn31, so a big headed flashlight is no problem for me. It’s kind of fun to bring out the big boy and watch everyone else’s jaw drop in awe.
+1 but with 86mm reflector from kaidomain. That would be my Dream with a driven Hard XHP-70 i know it would not be very throwy with this LED but a Monster
Oh yeah, just remembered - the Courui D01 needs a better thermal path from the emitter. The thin pill/plate that is used in the stock light is not going to work for a hot-rod mod! Some guys have already in the past made and sold replacement pills for this light, so we at least know what we need already.
So, if we’re in agreement about the BLF Courui D01-SE group buy, who’s gonna be the one to get it going? 8)
Who more knowledgeable than you, a Man that understands the parameters ahead of time, and (with permission) the driver all sorted out beforehand?
There is Always a way to make more time (is a divorce all that bad?) - Just less of this and less of that in your life, but just think about all of the praise you will receive from the BLF community! - WE are Many, and will support you all the way! - That should be what’s really important to you. - Helping Others.

I’m Totally Convinced that… You Are Da Man for This!
Very true about the "sweet spot"...buy many and give them away knowing that they cannot be had elsewhere :)
I do not know anything about where this would go BUT...
Triples....3 expensive emitters on a board with optics alone is going to run about $40....without the host.
Host prototyping is where the money really goes. $600-1000 without even thinking. Do it a few times and we could spend thousands on prototypes. That gets added
The list goes on
Not trying to discourage anybody and open dialog is good but bigger-headed lights get expensive quickly. If you know what driver...then look for a ready host. Fastest, cheapest, easiest way.
