Vinhnguyen54's personal TN31 Shelf Queen TRADED!

FINE PRINT:
I accept PayPal only with ZERO EXCEPTIONS! Any other offers asking for any other form of payment besides Paypal will be ignored. I SHIP TO THE CONTINENTAL USA ONLY! I'm sorry to all of my international friends. The first "I'll take it" posted in this thread takes the item/items over email or PM. YOU MUST SEND ME A PM WITH YOUR SHIPPING ADDRESS AFTER POSTING AN "I'LL TAKE IT" within 2 hours of the initial post!! (If you don't do this then the item/items will go to the next person in line) After that PM is received, I will then send a PM letting you know my Paypal address. From the time I send my Paypal address via PM or email to you, you will then have 24 hours to send payment via Paypal. If payment isn't received within the allotted 24 hours, then the item will be placed back for sale. If you would like a photo of the insurance slip from USPS then simply provide me with an email address or a cell phone number via PM. I will not be responsible after the package leaves my hands. I, personally, am only able to ship items on Fridays and Saturdays due to my work schedule. More often than not, I can have a family member of mine ship any given item the very next day (Monday - Saturday) as long as payment is received before 5-7 PM Central Standard Time. This, of course, comes with exceptions as I work weird, unpredictable hours. I provide clear instructions to whatever family member ships the item/items and this method has never failed me. They are instructed to take a photo of the shipping/insurance receipt at the time of shipping and also to give me the receipt personally. If anything in this "fine print" isn't clear then simply ask a question via PM.

Hello everyone! I'll start this thread with a quote that Wayne (Vinhiguyen54) has given me permission to use here along with some information that rdrfornty posted in one of his threads..

"This is my personal Tn31 shelf queen. I picked it over 15 different other TN31s. You will like it :-)" -Wayne (talking about this TN31)


Here is a link to member rdfronty's thread with some great information that anyone interested in one of these monster throwers should read.

https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/20563


In rdfronty's thread he stated that he got 1795 lumens @ startup and 1740 lumens @ 30 seconds. The lowest he measured was 510K lux (1,428 meters of throw or 594 ft shy from throwing a full mile) and as high as 524K lux. He also says that Wayne's TN31 mods easily beat the TN31mb. He compared it to his TN31MB which sports a de-domed XP-G2 and it had a reading of 434K lux. All for a much lower price and twice the lumens to boot!

After receiving a K40 from Wayne, I find that I like the slightly smaller form factor that the K40 has over the longer throw that the TN31 has. I have swapped the K40's and TN31's tailcap, as I prefer the TN31's tailcap shape to the K40's. The switches themselves were not swapped, only the tailcap shell. The anodizing is identical on both hosts so no need to worry about an anodizing mismatch here. Other than the tailcap swap, this host is exactly as received from Wayne.

This TN31 is in like new condition with no dings or scratches. There's a little dust and maybe a finger print or two but that's it. It has been fully modded by Wayne to include the following: XML2 6500K dedomed (tint appears to be 4500K-5000K to my eyes), driven to 6.5 amps (~1900 LED lumens), thick direct copper bonding, premium thermal compound, larger LED wires, all current connections touched up, battery carrier tweaked, and tuned for the most intense hot spot focus.


This TN31 has been admired indoors on a handful of occasions, taken outdoors when I first received it, and also taken outdoors the night I received the K40 to compare the two. It is in the same flawless condition as received from Wayne. This is a handpicked modded TN31 from the man himself and it shows. The mode selector ring is very smooth (smoother than my particular K40 FWIW) as is the beam.

-TRADED! $180 shipped TRADED! THANKS BLF! and insured via USPS OR trade for 445nm laser

Thanks for looking!

Guys,

This is a steal of a deal for what your getting for the money. It will make all your other lights seem like toys when it comes to throw more than likely. These things are putting out 500K. How many lights do you have that will come close to that? The one I have will out throw my huge Power On Board 35watt HID spotlight that weighs like 9lbs. This is the thrower of all throwers for the money.

Here’s a shot from mine up the street 300yds just to show you how this light does for throw.

i think a few pictures would help your cause

Done! I knew I forgot something..

Edit: Any idea of how I can get them to show up? Any help? You can anyways copy and paste but there has to be a better way..



I helped you out bro.

You just needed to take the IMG tags off of each link I believe when using the image icon above the post box.

Thanks ILFL! Helpful as always.

Shame no OS shipping, I’d have taken it

Hmm... I'll take it.

PM incoming.

PM replied. Trade pending.

Going for dinner, but yeah... definitely going to either trade, or pay for this light :)

Sounds good. Enjoy your night and get back to me some time tomorrow morning.

Sent you a long PM... let me know what you think :p

I'll be back online later tonight/tomorrow morning.

I sure will.

Great deal!

I wonder what laser you got. :smiley:

Oh nice, I just started getting into lasers. I really am enjoying them also!

Yup, IE is an expert, as well as most members of LPF.

I’m sure he won’t mind any laser related questions. :slight_smile:

Feel free to ask me anything as well.

Here's a little hint.. http://laserpointerforums.com/f39/sold-out-1-5w-3-mode-mini-s-w-gold-plated-copper-heatsink-video-added-73144.html

Very nice laser, I’m sure you’ll like it. :slight_smile:
