Here is a VIDEO!! It's the very first one I ever made, so Be Nice! ;-)
So you know what I want from this build. I want an XM-L T6 light when I get done with it.
Here's what I see already:
NEEDS
A glass lens
An Aluminum Reflector
A big Heat sink
A different regulator board
T6 emitter
WANTS
Remake the battery holder with all copper
Remake the Clicky with all copper, or replace the switch
Fill the 1/4x20 hole in the body
Smooth all the threads
Replace "O" rings
Paint with a special paint I want to try out
Add a FatBoy Logo
Issues I see right now:
I ordered stuff before I had good measurements, so the new reflector will have to have a ring made for it, to fit tightly in the head ID.
The heat sink I have is a piece of Aluminum rod stock in 1-5/8", so it will have to be "made to fit" with a sleeve, so the fit to head ID is tight.
The difference between the step in the head and the height of the pill, when screwed together, is 2mm, so I will have to figure out the gap from my Heat sink, to the pill (which will still hold the new regulator board & positive spring contact). I am figuring now that I will remove the threads from the pill and attach it to the bottom of the Heat sink I make, so it's all one piece.
Other than that, the rest is fairly straight forward.
I will post again, as I work on this mod and I may do more videos along the way.
