There must be hundreds of flashlights and assorted items that has had the Old-Lumens magic wand, :face_with_monocle: waved over them out there. This post is to try and get pictures on as many objects modded or created by Justin, :student: in the one place. If you can link to the original build/mod thread of the item you own even better.
Link to a few of OL creations.
I have not had the luck of owning any of Justinās lightsā¦ Love the work with the venerable Mags. I will be watching this thread to see what comes out of the woodwork!
Hopefully there literally will be woodwork posted here.

This is the link to the light a kind member bought for me.
A picture with it in Old-Lumens hands
And a picture where it resides now. Justin was also kind enough to post over a couple of Defiant 3Cās for me to mod as well of which one is in this picture.
The file work here has to be seen to believed how good it really is. Iād go as far to say itās better than my machine work.
Youāll be happy to have answers, they are probably stuck staring at it since they received it
I am the lucky owner of this little gem.
Great idea, MRsDNF.
This is one of two O-L lights I own. This one is a tricked out FandyFire Rook set up to run on three NiMH cells in series. The driver came from Dr. Jones. All the details can be foundā hereā:FandyFire Rook Mod. 3AA NiMH in series? Yes, it's done, but I'm on the second one now!.
Shown here, next to what was, until the COMETA came into my life, the worst POS flashlight I owned- thank you, NC, you still are banned at my house.
I also have a 3xAA Maglite that was reworked by O-L. It doesnāt seem I have a picture of it, but Iāll get one and post it up.
Thanks guys for taking the effort. There must be one or two more lights out there we can show here.
I have 2 Old-Lumens touched lights. They arrived within weeks of each other. As I recall, I was starting to believe I would never win one of Justinās lights. I selectively entered his giveaways and waited for for just the right sale of his. Either they were out of my budget or someone beat me to it. Justin mentioned that he would entertain modding jobs. I reached out to him about modding a Ultrafire F-13 for me. At the time a sale on F-13ās for $8.99 was active. This light had some mod potential and the versatility of running both a single 18650 or 26650. He agreed and charged me a very modest fee. The XML2 emitter ruled at the time, so in went one with a 3.04A driver. Strangely enough, while waiting for the light parts from Richard to arrive at his workshop, I won a āNoFireā [unbranded] HD2010 with mystery internals. OL didnāt remember what he had done to it. At the time he had several 2010ās that he was modding, evaluating and making videos of for a possible future BLF group buy. I forgot what the tail cap readings were on the HD2010. But I compared it to a coworkers Sunwayman T40CS one evening while on night shift. No question about it the coolish 2010 [20R battery] beat the more neutral SWM . The giveaway light had a noticably broader beam and farther throw. Direct drive high, PWM med and low, strobe, flash no memory.

HD2010
Have enjoyed them both proudly.
I would like to offer them both towards the auctions for O-L.
Iāll cover postage [USPS-CONUS].
If the auction coordinator will PM me, we can workout the details.
Both used gently 97.5% condition imho.
Big props to you for a great post and great gesture Sir!
Nice lights flashination and two of my favourites until the quality of the F13 went down hill. I modded a dozen or so and s far as I know they are all still going.
Nice gesture on the auction. :+1:
The one-and-only duodecuple Nichia 219 quad-14500 quad-MiniMag mini-behemoth:
ā¦andā¦
A classic Maglite retrofitted with an MT-G2 emitter that runs on Li-Ions, with MRsDNFās legendary knurling!
Nice sb! Itās been a while since I had seen those OL classics!
Thanks for sharing āsbā. Those are both nice but the āquad mini magā is outstanding!!! :+1:
Here is part of my OL collection. Iāll get some more images of the rest. You can tell I donāt like what he does at all.
He has the eye for style and the hands to make it reality! May God Bless him every day! Thanks for starting this MRsDNF! TL
Is the knife an āOLā also ??
You bet! The rascal has few limits as to what he can do. TL
Thanks for the info āTLā, that is a nice looking blade!!! :+1:
And of course the lights are alsoā¦ā¦.
Waiting patiently for Slow2go (actually heās very2 fast ) posting his collection of OLās flashlights.
