Jetbeam TCR-1 ala CRX

thanks for making it easy for me to spend money… LOL

I just ordered some of the aqua blue acrylic glow paint.

they were easy to work with… I placed an order for powder, changed my mind and was able to cancel by chat…

I got instant confirmation of refund and reordered, but as paint…
they are located just one state away, I think this is going to be fun…

Ive always wanted my fingernails to glow in the dark… LOL!

on a more serious note… I might paint some on my glasses earpieces… I often cant see them on the nightstand…

another plan is to paint some around the tailpost of a TCR-1…

Very nice,I would love to see a clicky tail switch!,kelly

Sunwayman has a tailswitch, here is one in Titanium

Sunwayman also has Aluminum versions with tailswitch… here are some Im selling.

Also the new RRT-01 has a tailswitch

I have the original ti version ,all way wished it could be turned off more securely

congratulations… classic light

I added thicker grease to the control ring, makes it hold firmly where the dial is turned to, including Off.

I’ll give that a go ,thx

The lube I like for this purpose is Nyogel 767a

Unfortunately, the only way I know of, to change the grease on the control ring, requires a complete disassembly.

I looked at your imgphoto disassembly,vert good but I don’t think I will tackle that!
I think a stronger spring or stretch the existing one just a bit,would achieve that Moe positive detent.,Kelly

your light looks very nice, thanks for the photo

I agree it is not recommended to try to open the light, it is easy to damage the driver wires

I agree the detente spring is very weak. I can understand your wishing it was stronger.
