I got these spacers from justin78 which I think also got potential. A bit thinner than the drop-in but the same height. Maybe can file away the top bit, drill 2 small holes at the top and 1 big hole at the base????
But my very first use apart from charging batteries is, putting a 14500 battery + 1 spacer wrapped in sello-tape into my L2 which is too narrow to take 17670 or 3V CR123A soshine batteries. L2 gives the same brightness.

Here are some photos of my little experiment with M1X plus an asperical lens.
First I use a knife sharpener to remove a bit of the edges off the lens because it is too big to go into the head.

Then simply take out the glass & put this in.


Now the beamshots. But not as bright as original glass.




Oh dear, I think I must be too free.

Wow! V3 eh?

Mind asking them what are the improvements are?

Pretty sweet deal for the cube considering that other ppl are paying USD75 for it

wow james, i think u r the real flashaholic here. Modify here and there. Tukar this tukar that.

the spacers still need a big disc at the top, hmmm

Can you take a snapshot of the LF bulb's bottom, is there a hole there (to put the driver circuit board)?

susuman, i really you man
so long time ago punya movie/image you still can dig out
somemore with the classic sentence "You had me at he.., wow .. Throw me that RRT and you can have me"

hahaha.....i want my RRT!!!

Wow, looks like an eyeball haha! Spooky.....

Ah i remember you mention something about making a flood light lol. What abt using your C2 clone?


Huuhh? I meant that I'll be going for incan upgrades instead for the SP-9.

Btw damon, you're the only few left to come for this gathering! So how
I think everyone will want to meet their Poison Master


Haha interesting looking pattern, looks like it needs a suitable reflector to make use of the lens.


Like the Eye of Sauron

I suddenly have this huge GAS for a Malkoff...haven't read what he has in his M60 though. Anyone knows?

Yeah, all of a suddenly, every one has xenon/incans, now my humble 20W Conquer is not conquering any more .

I think can still drill out the spacer bottom and put in a tiny driver, or easier make it direct drive.

The LF bulb has no hole. The bottom is just like any other bulb, like a drop of solder there. But I know that the bottom must be isolated from the side, to achieve the +ve and -ve.
