Very nice shame the RED didn’t work! I’m looking for a good source of xq-e reds that will fit the same as your 0805. We can rework the firmware then
But still a nice light
Cool attempt for red+219C configuration, I am huge fan of such combo. Soldering small parts requires a lot of patient, which I seriously lacking off now. Your mod also reminds me of tterev3's crazy RGBUV SC02
Nitecore's twin emitters design is preferred layout for optimum beam profile and brightness.
Can I trade more lights with your pre-assembled tailcap LED in future?
I’ve actually destroyed 3 or 4 S2 reflectors trying to drill a hole to do that very thing. I might have to take another stab at it some time, as I agree that is probably the best solution.
There are plenty of ways to get extra red modes it. It’s just about having the right firmware and driver for it, with the correct implementation. It’s actually very difficult.
Yes. I tried a tough, baked-on enamel, but it just cracked and flaked off when I screwed it down. So I ended up going with plastidip, a sort of latex-y rubberized paint.
