Yup, I saw that too just 10 mins ago. Interesting... I'd get one if I owned the Crelant 7G5 but I don't. And I'm kind of holding back from buying one after reading ILIKE's comments on this forum. Actually, I wish other manufacturers would offer such a retrofit for their flashlights too. That would make things mighty interesting.
I wonder if the head fits any other body tubes? C8? STL-V2?
I wonder if it would fit the 7G5 V1?
This looks interesting. Has anybody tried it out yet and see how much further it can throw?
that's awesome
Too small for XM-L to rival DBS V3 XR-E with EZ900, but that'd do. Should bump it up to maybe 70k cd? But you get more lumens out there than the DBS V3 (bigger hotspot).
I have gotten confirmation from Hank that it'd not fit the 7G5 V1.
Too bad. Would have bought it.
Anyone knows the lens diameter?
+1
I just placed my order for one. Now I can't wait to see how it does!!!
Thank you on the non v1 fitment.
good god i hope the threads fit a fairly common body. p60 or c8 or something

Selfbuilt’s review of the collimator lens is out now at http://www.candlepowerforums.com/vb/showthread.php?335713. Scroll down towards the end of his review to see the beamshots and results from the collimator lens.
Summary of Selfbuilt’s result:
here is a beamshot for Crelant 7G5-V2 with collimator head.
i was using 2*trustfire flame 3000mA batteryes.
beamshot at 260 meters
beamshot at 390 meters
What exposure setting was you on?
I can’t tell because the info isn’t embedded like it should be.
Looks to be auto exposure to me.
Use manual setting and set shutter speed at about 1 sec. That will take the laser beam effect out of the picture.
Welcome to the family, lanterneled!
thank you.
seems like flashight are highly addictive….like someone’s signature says
