dazed1, what I want to know is what you have tried already and what you didn’t like about it. It’ll help provide better reference points for what is desired, and the solution might be easier/cheaper than expected.
The plan is on hold for now sadly, my modder friend is busy with some other stuff. I will make sure to report back my finidnings and what did i decide in the end, its alot of info for a relatively new guy regarding mods/flashlights 
Thanks alot to all who helped me and give me great advice’s. This forum is seriously great!
@Chicken Drumstick, some serious posts there dude, thanks alot!
Wish I had been as diligent and as patient as you in my early purchases. Best of luck on making your choice. 
Any recommendations on drivers? I don’t have the BLF one you used.
Any 105c style driver can modified with the Zener mod, enabling 2 cells to run the MT-G2 from a driver designed to run a 3V emitter from a single cell. Pretty simple mod really, remove the diode at the positive lead and put a 200 ohm resistor in it’s place, then stack a Zener diode on top of the capacitor on the other side of the board. Voila!
Dazed, have you decided yet what to do? I read through your thread here and was left with a question. You had mentioned several times that you have four requirements for the light, MTG2, EDC-able, flood and use 18650 batteries. For me an EDC-able light fits in the pocket. My personal preference for an EDC-able light also needs a clip. Pocketable eliminates the 18650. Your requirements for run time are short so I suggest thinking over the use of 18350 batteries. In the dual 18350 category I think there are four key hosts to choose from, Convoy S3 and S2 , the Convoy M1 and the Sinner Tri-EDC 100mm Sinner’s host is the best option but is $15 over budget to start with. The S2 and S3 will get hot, by hot I mean with a FET driver it’s going to burn your hand before one minute is up. The S3 does not take a clip, the S2 does take a clip but is longer. Now the S2 does make a nice host for a triple XPG2 or triple XPL. A triple will use your 18650 battery preference and give a nice flood of light. The only 18650 host that appears somewhat pocketable is this variation that I can’t find in stock anywhere at the moment.
FWIW, I recently built a Convoy M2 with MT-G2 and 2x18350. It’s probably the smallest host I’d attempt this configuration with.
Results weren’t as good as I had hoped. It does put out a lot of light (~3000ish lumens), but the awesome MT-G2 “EZ-white” tint I kept hearing about was disappointingly cold, pretty far off from the 5000K spec I was expecting. Looks like a 2B tint, maybe 2C, but it’s supposed to look like a 3D or 3A. And the host made it really awkward to get electrical contact with the driver. For some reason, its driver also behaves strangely, and has difficulty changing modes (on-time / short-cycle memory). And the 2-cell config breaks low-voltage protection.
Personally, I prefer the tint and smooth beam pattern of a triple XP-G2 3D or triple Nichia 219B under a frosted Carclo optic. Or even a mixed-tint triple if you want to get adventurous.
BTW, both S2 and S3 can use a SF L2 clip, and it’s much sturdier than the common screw-on clip normally used for cheap 1x18650 lights. They just need a paperclip or wire added to the tailcap to allow contact with the non-anodized part of the body.
I have shorting issues on my S3 if my isolation gasket is off by a little bit. I used too thick of wire- 16 or 18 gauge. Takes up way too much space. I should cover with capton tape but I have been to lazy to go to radio shack to grab some. It’s funny, sometimes I think the MTG2 is too cool, but usually I feel it’s perfect. Mine is very close to sunlight at noon on a California clear summer day. -I’m sorry to hear you are displeased with yours. Did you get the 5000 or the 4000 kelvin?
I dream of many builds, one is the Ouchyfoot M1 with MTG2 and TIR as the flood of my S3 is too floody.
I got the 5000K MT-G2, but the actual tint is closer to 5600K. Maybe even 5700K. I think I may have gotten a bad unit as a fluke or something, because it’s pretty far off spec.
I dont want to be rude and this has been an intresting thread as I think I lot of us are looking for 2-3 cell “useable flood lights” but I noticed that Dazed lists a “Niwalker MM 15 @stock” in his inventory which unless I am mistaken is a pretty darn good flood and very close to what he is seeking. Maybe VN can “improve” things for Dazed for the budget he is looking for?

New Vid fromVN
Mattaus has a Niwalker Vostro for sale cheap if this is any good for Dazed 1. I dont know about shipping costs though.
that Medusa light he sold for $75, wow! I am sorry I missed that one! Anyone make me one of those?
the Nitecore P36 is near that price… 
or the MM15 for 166 USD?
twice the price but double the LEDs
