yeah... coz I'm running out of non-flashaholic friends to gift to...
this E05 is really useful with its floody beam and has proven to be very practical for keychain duty...

I'm a friend, aren't i?

Sure bro? I saw in youtube it's brighter and throws further...maybe my eyes deceiving me...

awhile back, lightjunk was kind enough to build me a sscP7 d sized Maglite. the led was mounted directly onto its p7 heatsink from britelumens. now however, i have a star sst50 led lying around and wish to swap it onto the maglite. is it possible to just mount the star sst50 onto the old heatsink? will the heat from the star sst50 transfer to the heatsink in the maglite for cooling?

Sure, the P7 is glued to the heatsink, you can remove the P7 and glue the SST50 into the heatsink, the heat will still transfer out, but you need thermal epoxy glue.

Anyway if you have pictures of the P7 mount on Maglite and the SST50 is easier for me to suggest anything.

thing is the sst50 has a star board. can i just put the star board on the heat sink?

Can, but will the extra thickness interfere with the reflector? You have the Thermal Adhesive/Epoxy?

im using an aspheric lens so it doesnt matter? no thermal adhesive yet, plan to buy it soon.

Oh, so reflector? The it will have no issue at all, just focusing is needed.

BTW , how is the P7 sit on the heat sink, glue also? If yes, then you will need Thermal Adhesive, to glue the SST50 Star PCB to the Alu Heatsink of the Maglit.

Anyway, it is really fun doing these, isn't it?

im not sure what the p7 sat on, it was some blue substance. i guess i'll be getting the arctic silver thermal adhesive. can spread the heat as well as keep the sst50 star pcb in place. and yes it is fun. hehe

hi guys
a question from me

i am thinking of buying a 18650 powered flashlight (fenix pd31) but the thing that is stopping me from doing so is i have read that it is hard to find 18650 rechargeable a reliable charger? If that is true, what do i need to beware of before i went to invest in this potential firecracker?
Paranoid due i've seen to lot of cases that li-ion batt blew up

oh btw, thermal adhesive arrived today and now the light is up and running also, what is the diff between a de domed sst50 and a stock sst50?

Guys...at long last i have decided to get a 2 x CR123 flashlight...went through nearly all possible brands available (from gadgetworld's sales thread) and was kinda lost on which one to get....so if you guys could help...i am looking for a flashlight that utilizes 2 x RCR123 with the highest possible max/turbo output (lumen) that lasts at least 60 mins...and i noticed Fenix isnt that bright (at least in lumen output) when it comes to 2xrcr123....so would be great if you folks could list it out what's ur preference...~

And i noticed for 2xcr123, size for most are more or less the same so another 1 or 2 cm longer or shorter is okay...price wise not more than RM350...~

Thanks in advance..!!!
