I’m still waiting on responses from dealers. Fast Tech is getting me some quotes as well as others.

First guy hasn’t gotten back to me after I asked for a picture of the reflector. He said it was smooth aluminum. So I asked him if he was sure it wasn’t plastic coated in aluminum. Now no response.

I have another dealer that is willing to customize the driver. Five modes no blinkies. High, Medium, Low, lower and moonlight. This is on a C12 XM-L2 but they have a minimum 100 order. I’m trying to talk them down to $10. They take paypal but will only ship to one address. They do laser etching themselves.

I second the idea of the 5 modes. I would get 2 of these. My daughter likes the moonlight mode for her bedside stand. I know some folks think the multi modes are goofy, but I actually like them. So anyways, if you go that way, mark the Nature Boy Ric Flair cause I need 5 modes whilst I am a limo-ridin’, jet-flyin’, kiss stealin’, wheelin’ dealin’, son-of-a-gun (who kissed ALL the girls worldwide and made em cry! WHOOOOOO!!!!

I will dye my hair blonde and wear pink underwear if it helps getting this driver working... Actually tivo532 has been a big help til 1AM this morn. Got past the S/N problem - think'n I must have done something wrong - did confirm getting 3.3v to the MCU, but the USB dongle is still not recognizing the presence of the MCU. Between hand soldering all parts on the board, modding the USB dongle (wired in a jumper), building the ribbon cable mod - all untested and all must work perfectly... Gotta be me.

nice to have a 'sub-story' going on in this thread :-) , like the adventures of Snowy in the Tintin books.

Sorry, just 18sixfifty, who's thread this is, is showing interest. Would be cool to have a custom BLF'ers driver involved in this modded, BLF logo light offer. Should re-direct him to the other thread on the driver here: https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/24593

Yep it would be very cool and if we could get this driver into a production run for this light it would be awesome.

[Ejected_Filament]

More BLF in the light? Can only be a good thing.

[djozz]

Really , a C12 with this driver!

How about shaving “BLF” into your hair, instead?

[Let-There-Be-Light]

I’ll take 1-2 of whatever. Can we get a BLF lens on it that will shine a big BLF on low clouds like Batman does with his light?

No fair, you probably do that all the time anyways…

Convoy C8 host? Does that mean it only comes with OP reflector?

Their c10 host has a smooth reflector

I like the deal 18sixfifty :-) , both the c8 and the c10 will be awesome with logo, xpg2 and 2.8A. For me, I will take care of dedoming and some extra chips myself :evil:

[djozz]

Hmm, does 'BLF name' mean that it can not be a logo? (I really liked lightme's logo :-) )

[Jalben]

Yeah, put me in for at least one. I’m gonna check with some pals and see if they want in too.
