Ok, I’ll add the couple of pictures I took later.
First the headline
Xre-q5 direct drive on a keeppower 3400mah cell.
Does anyone fancy hazarding a guess on what the little sucker can draw?
And more to the point, I have a zy-t08 that I can run at 3a, the little Jacob has just finished smashing its teeth in, it butted it like a drunk glaswiegen then should “get that stitched sonny!”
I may have to try and get one of these myself to do the same thing to.
Anyway, the mod in brief.
Strip the light, remove the driver and led. Then get a 20mm contact board, add a positive and negative wire and the driver spring so you can retain the nice little brass plunger.

Sand the top of the light engine and add new thermal paste.

Solder the star back in, reassemble and your done, 1 mode ridiculous out put thrower for about $16. I only got one shot of the meter, and at a much lower current draw than the max I saw, that scared me to be honest, but I’ll add the picture after a few guesses.
Then I want the experts opinions on if I should post this monster back to the owner as is or fit thinner gauge wires as its taking the piss….
