New toys from FT CNY sale :)

[keltex78]

From eBay: my 2x AA Superlight Flashlights.

From FastTech:

1. 2x TIR optics for the above
2. A random yellow XP-E emitter: "Just Because"
3. A pack of tiny (aluminum) XM-L PCBs: For a possible 10440 project
4. A single non-DTP copper XP-sized PCB: It's very thin, not thick like the XM-L boards
5. Singfire Rook clone (FT clearance sale, cheap): Nice clean reflector and lens, rest of the light is filthy
6. Not pictured: a spare N64 controller

I got another Bag of Crap. It came with 7 crappy flashlights this time.

Picked this up in the recent FastTech sale. Old school maybe (complete with XR-E led), but I love the look of it and it’s a refreshing change from black. Nice build quality and looks a lot more expensive than it was. Bought mainly as a P60 host to play around with.

Oh wow, I really wanted to give my buddy a silver light for xmas bout couldn’t find any good options, didn’t even look for any P60 options tho (other than the way to expensive SS Solarforce).

Got a link?

They are in the FastTech clearance sale. The XR-E one I got has sold out but there are a couple of XM-L versions left and a Uniquefire L2 (same thing) with a XP-G. I can’t seem to do direct links, you will have to do a keyword search for ‘504b’ and ‘L2’.

Dealextreme also carry the host only version.

“Dealextreme”:http://www.dx.com/p/uitrafire-504b-aluminum-alloy-replacement-case-for-flashlight-silver-228602#.VOrolWdyY5s also carry the host only version.

Thanks for that link! I didn't know that DX had the 504b as a host-only option. Most likely because they are listed as "Uitrafire".

Is that bare aluminum, or is it like a silver paint?

A 0-14mm hole reamer, High Speed Steel but made for plastics.

I’m guessing it’s silver anodising.

No problem. Bear in mind that the Uniquefire version is only $10 at FastTech at the moment so you would be getting a spare drop-in for less than $2 extra over the cost of the host.

A few more tiny voltmeters from ebay, these in blue and better built and calibrated.

Don't really know what I got ...

Maybe my cat Atlas knows something I don't? Could be something for shooting rats ... Or maybe he knows that it's from a country where some people eats dog. Either way - he loves the package ...
