Low-cost copper pills, spacers, optics, drop-ins (Updated 23/10/2022))

Come today,thanks

Regards Xandre

I would like the option of the triple p60.

Still have not found suitable GITD o-ring for triple. Anybody knows source where I can find various sizes?
Upd:
24*1.5mm from dx seems the only available variant.
By the way, what do you think about this liner material? X5 and M1 liners will be made from SS, while triple quad liner can be made from SS or aluminium.
Waiting you replies, especially from those who has built X5 with my spacer.

Finally had the time to put together the quad. and man its nice.

the spacer fit flawlessly and i couldn’t be happier.

What are the benefits of an aluminum liner vs. a ss liner? The ss liner for the X5 fit/worked great.

I’ve tried the x5 spacer with and without the liner and it works fine… I think the aluminum liner would work as well.

Without liner nothing holds o-ring, so there is no waterproof.
I`m sure that aluminium one can work, I`m worry about transportation damages of upper rim, when I had made crimp driver version pills some users have receiced them with damaged rim.

Oh, I see but if you out the o-ring on top of the lens instead of between the carclo optics and the lens then wouldn’t it still provide an adequate seal?

Once I have damaged glass this way.
I just screw? (past simple) bezel until glass contact tir lens and then tightened little more (o-ring should be under some pressure). It looks great but several days after I took this host and glass was damaged (without any usage). Also I have heard that some guy damaged tir legs with same reason. So it is better when glass and tir dont have lots if internal forces.

For GITD o-ring take a look here :

Ordered a bunch of spacers, s2+, s6, x5, x6. Shipping was fast just under 2 weeks and everything came in a nice little container that was bubble wrapped. Will be using that container for bits and bobs in the future.

Thanks kiriba¡

Parts that will be available in a week:
-S2+ aluminium spacer
-X5 quad conv. kit
-P60 quad drop-in
Parts that are going to be made next:
-S2+ triple/single pill with RR (?)
-triple liner for P60 quad drop-in
-M1 quad conv. kit (Khatod edition)
-Z1 copper pill
-X6 spacers for low-height Khatod optics (won’t require mcbcp sanding like with Cute-3) (?)
U11 quad conv. kit (?)

What do you mean by “S2+ triple/single pill with RR”? I’m about to order S2+ triple copper pill, is this going to be an improved version or just a new batch?

RR means retaining ring. I hope we will do it.

So should I wait for it? Is price going to be higher? I already have stock brass retaining ring, would copper affect performance positively?

If you want to wait you should know it won`t be very fast, 3-4 weeks I suppose.
Price…It is hard question. Let it happen first.
Retainig ring will be same to stock and made from brass.

Seems that HD-2010 copper pill became little more actual.
18350 cells are available now.
This drivers http://www.cnqualitygoods.com/goods.php?id=2249 and http://www.cnqualitygoods.com/goods.php?id=2248 are available too.
I realise that universal variant would be best solution, but seems it is unreal.
I see two different ways:

  1. Make driver place fit one or both this boost drivers. PCB shelf should be little lower than stock for using MT-G2, drivers have big height, but anyway shelf can be thick enough cause driver place can be moved to the tail for single cell usage.
  2. Make pill fit 20/22mm FET driver for 2x26350 cells usage. Double cells require more length between tail and pill, so driver place will be near stock, while shelf can be thick enough cause drivers are small height.
    What variant would you prefer?

Hi,

that would be really nice! I have a U11 host waiting for some improvement :+1:
