Boosted, i don't know. I know my protected trustfire 18650 fits....


It will probably be a while before these kits are even ready. Funds are short so i won't even get them ordered until friday as the soonest

Looking for 4 people willing to pay for their orders now so that we can get these hosts ordered. Should receive the hosts 3 or 4 days after ordering as they ship from the USA.

Higher on the list gets priority for the pre-pay. However, choosing not to will not affect your position on the list.
I got the parts for 4 kits finished today, they're just missing their hosts.
The 4 people who prepay will get their kits shipped first. Although this should not affect the delivery time of others as i will have plenty more ready to go when the hosts arrive.

I'm hoping we can do this so I can get the hosts ordered today instead of Monday. That's probably the first I can make it to a US Bank to deposit Friday's paycheck.

I'm looking for 4 because the hosts must be ordered in bulk to get them at $10.00 ea instead of $12.50 ea.

Send me a PM if your interested.

i added you.

The hosts have been marked as shipped. Though the tracking number is not showing anything yet.

These first 10 hosts will be ready to be shipped back out as soon as they arrive. I'll just need to strip the PCB's and drill the hole in the pill.

DTR will be releasing a review on it as well in the next couple of days. He should have one tomorrow to play with.

I'm experimenting with some gloss black paint i got at wal-mart today that's meant for cars. I painted two focus adapter with it to see how it turns out. If it turns out well I can include them painted upon request. This way they blend in with the rest of the host.

I wish I had the supplies for anodizing, because it'd be awesome to have it black-anodized.

I just checked them this morning. They look pretty awesome painted. I'm going to wait another day and see how durable the paint is. I don't want it chipping or anything.

Surely it's pretty durable since it's meant for painting cars. It was $6 a can. But it's pure black with a beautiful gloss to it.
Once the hosts arrive i'll take pictures of it on the host. Can't right now as DTR will be getting the only host i had in the mail today for review.

Here is a picture of one of the focus adapters after 1 coating of this paint. This is about 16-17 hours after i applied it. It's jet black, but so glossy you can see reflections in it.

USPS - Track & Confirm

Hosts are in Kansas city. Which means they will be here Monday morning.
The two who prepaid to get these hosts here quicker, plus customer listed 1-6 will get shipped on this batch.
I'll PM everyone tomorrow for payment information.
I'll also give and update about the focus ring painted. We have till monday though, no hurry.
