Up for sale is this cut down 1D Maglite. It's polished, (maybe shiny is a better word, because polished denotes super smooth and buffed). It has an XM-L2 U2 1D led on a Maxtoch 26mm Copper star, Aluminum heat sink, custom Maglite driver with a DrJones lumodrv ramping program and 16x7135 chips, glass lens, CNQG aluminum reflector, battery sleeves for 26650 and 18650. It has Copper rings on the bezel and tail ends and it has black paint accents, (Caliper paint that is oven cured). It has some file work on the bezel and tail cap. I think that's about it.
Here's a few photos:
So much shiny stuff, I couldn't focus on the led.
Theoretically, with the right cell, it should do 6 amps, but I only got 5 amps from my Sony 26650. The lux was 60k at 1 meter. It has a large hot spot and not much spill at all.
This is the last modified light I plan on doing this way. I will probably be putting up a thread sooner or later, for made to order 2D LED Maglites pre-paid, but I do not plan on modding any more lights, other than pre-paid lights. Too close to plant closure and time to save as much as I can for the uncertain and unemployed future ahead. Yep, they finally set a date for December, just before Christmas.
Price is $135 USD CONUS and $145 USD Anywhere outside of the Continental USA.

First person posting they want it, followed by payment and a PM to me with your full shipping info, gets the light.
That is so well done O-L! Love the reflection off it in the photos. And that file work is beautiful. Really cathes the eye. No wonder you could not focus on the emitter :-)
Sorry to hear about the job O-L. There is at least one guy in Denmark that is hoping for a quick resolve of that. Keeping my fingers crossed.
