Welcome to BLF!
I am not sure how he modded it,other than a current boost. In stock form the light has great output and Vinh was able to get a little more out of it.
The manufacturers are catching up now. Up until a year or so ago Vinh was doubling and tripling the CD’S of a stock light.
Here are the numbers: I have Spec 1[CW] Most throw.
Spec 1 & 2:
Power Boost
1oz extra copper HS
Beam Focus
Stock Light XHP35 HI CW 6500K $200
ANSI

Spec 1 XHP35 HI CW 6500K $250 (Recommended)
