:) I think I did a nice mod underwater mod…
Then I made just a tiny modification
Tested in local swimming pool:
I’m going to use it for deep scuba diving…
^ Awesome under water video! :+1:

Looks amazing with a lot of work Mieciu. Any chance of a build thread?

I have one Courui D01 with damaged reflector and it is sitting disassembled quite some time, maybe more than a year, who knows… I had some crazy ideas but after some time spent thinking about those i figured out that it would not be possible to do those things with reasonable cost, so do you guys have some suggestions what to do with the flashlight? I might just give up at the end but would love to see some suggestions, note that the stock reflector is not usable.
One of the crazy ideas was to do a short D01, with 4-5 S2+ reflectors and custom made spacer for the leds and driver socket, it is doable for someone who has lathe on their disposal but for me it would be to pricey, although it is not that hard if i nail the design of the pill and driver socket on first try, which to be honest will not be possible.
It would look like this
Dude, fasttech has some cheap large reflectors for sale, even those mega size zooming convex lens is available for this light but will probably need some serious diamond file sanding to fit perfectly to make this mega jaxman. i scoop up some large reflectors along with those xpl hi during a sale . Always good to have some new leds around for upgrading of lights. yea , i have a xplhi v4 waiting to go into this super thrower with just a simple emitter swop.
Wait there’s a xpl hi v4? Where did you see or find that. As far as I know v3 is the highest bined xpl hi

I don’t know if this is the case with the one Fatlight bought, but sometimes Cree will make a higher bin in cold white only, like 10,500K white! I’ve seen this a few times. It’s sort of unofficial, undocumented, and only available at one or two places.

Hi MRsDNF
I did not document the build process… It took me almost a year to finish it.
starting from 2nd minute - test of my custom software to prevent accidental short piezo pressed, accepts only longer signals.
and with some cute animals:
