Spark SD Reflector

HI All,

I’m hoping someone may have a source for these reflectors or has some laying around they would part with, I’m in need of 6, seems to be a couple places in AU with stock but they don’t ship to the US. HKequipment has no stock, their slow at updating their sites. Any help would be appreciated.

Some pictures and the dimensions of the reflector would be helpful.

I don’t have any exact measurements, I can take some with a pair of calipers later today, but there are photos available with a google search and the links below, thanks

The reflector looks like the type Kaidomain would carry, just find the dimensions (Diameter, height, and Led hole size) and buy one there.

I forgot something:

Welcome to BLF

Okay, now i see you’re looking for that particular product.

Thank you, Yes it seems to be specific to these Spark lights, the center hole diameter is 5.1mm for the CREE XML emitter with a thread diameter at the base of 18.3mm, the Kaidomain site provided seems to not describe the thread diameters just the over all diameter and height of the reflector.

If there’s no way to obtain those Spark reflector heads, you’ll probably have to modify the stock ‘mule’ (without reflector) heads into reflector heads.
(Assuming you have 6 ‘mule’ Sparks you want to change)

unfortunately the original doesn’t have the same depth,

Can you possibly paint the original mule reflector with some sort of silver reflective and create a mini reflector?

Aha, i see.
Then the only thing i can think of is removing the glass and try to put in a PMMA or acrylic ‘TIR’ optic, because they are usually less deep than metal reflectors, and they don’t need a glass lens in front of them.
Can the stainless steel bezel ring be removed?

Unfortunately the two links on eBay go to the HKequipment store and they have no stock, I placed an order with them on November 23rd and they emailed me back saying they have no stock but they haven’t updated their sites yet. There is two places in Australia but they don’t ship outside of their country, I have emailed them and maybe something can be worked out.
