*BLF LT1 Lantern Project) (updated Nov,17,2020)

Interested depending on price.

That’s a good question. This one here was one i had sitting around since last year unused or modded, it was a random 4-emitter one i won from ebay for 23 bucks. It had four XM-Ls on separate 16mm stars cemented to a aluminum plate that is roughly1/8” thick and threaded into the body right below the lens.

Great concept.

How about a smaller one too? 1 or 2 cells?

Are there any good dome-shaped diffusers already on the market that fit a SRK ?

You know , for us budget guys …

Side story …

During our last hurricane-induced power outage I noticed that all of my flashlights were not in their usual place when I went to get one .

After a brief search , I found that my daughter had all of them ~~ tailstanding on her bathroom counter on high~~ so she could apply her makeup .

Apparently , this procedure requires a lot of light .

Which she had plenty of .

:smiley:

I wonder what she thinks of the strobe mode for that activity.

very cool, interested. Thanks.

I’m interested in one for sure. I can use another lantern. Maybe 18sixfifty can chime in.
He’s built a few lanterns in his day.

I WANT ONE !

Actually i already modified a Roche F6 single-18650 with warm white XM-L, a Q-lite 105 with reduced number of 7135 chips to increase the run times, and built a special removable diffuser that converts in into a functional lantern much better than diffusers does. On medium-mode with a 3000mah cell it runs for 12 hours non stop, and puts out roughly 200 lumens, brighter than most store bought “crap” led full size lanterns. ( can take photos if wished)

not that i know of, though i built a few to try on SRKs, they have to many limitations on stock SRK lights to use as a lantern.

I’m in too. I love a good lantern.

Excited about this project! I have been looking for a good lantern for some time now. :slight_smile:

This is an excellent idea, count me in for anything you need!

In, please. Thanks.

I’m in.

My SRK-Based Lantern… This is an old SRK clone with five genuine LB from GB and disposable plastic cup.
