Lux-Pro LP600 build

I kinda fancy the Lux-Pro lp600 flashlight. After getting a couple of "hot options" in them from JayRob thought I'd give it a try. So I chose a 044 set at 5.0 amps from DTR.Got three heat sinks from Lifetime made of solid copper and four focus adapters [/URL][/IMG]This is the pill taken out of the host[/URL][/IMG]Picture of the other side of the pill[/URL][/IMGThis is the pill after disassembly and mark off where I need to drill to give the driver board more room[/URL][/IMG]This is measuring the pill/driver making sure after grinding everything has enough room and not hitting the sides[/URL][/IMG]This is getting ready to thermo epoxy the driver in the pill[/URL][/IMG]This is the driver epoxied in the pill with a clamp waiting for it to harden[/URL][/IMG]Here we are getting ready to strip the driver board that came with the flashlight,will be using the contact board but don't need the parts[/URL][/IMG]DRiver board has been stripped[/URL][/IMG]Other side of the driver board getting ready to drill a hole for the positive wire[/URL][/IMG]the hole is drilled and the spring is soldered on.[/URL][/IMG]The driver has hardened wires are cut and stripped ready for the contact board to be soldered on[/URL][/IMG]Here the contact board has been soldered on and the ground wire to the case of the pill[/URL][/IMG]bought some aluminum solder resin made it real easy to solder copper wire to the aluminum pill[/URL][/IMG]Getting ready to solder the module to the pill[/URL][/IMG]changed my mind chose to insert the diode in the module first seeing how it was a tight fit ( great for thermo conductivity ) with thermo paste seeing I was running the diode at 5.0 amps needed all the heat exchange I could get[/URL][/IMG]module and pill have been soldered together[/URL][/IMG]another picture of the module and the pill[/URL][/IMG]getting ready to insert the two 18350's and the battery sleeve in the build[/URL][/IMG] here a picture of the custom focus adapter Lifetime sent with those beautiful copper sinks[/URL][/IMG]And we have photons [/URL][/IMG]And a couple of pictures of of completed laser.[/URL][/IMG][/URL][/IMG][/URL][/IMG][/URL][/IMG]Thought I would change out the g2 with a Sanwu g7 I had,it cuts down the divergence about in half, much better dot:yh:Can't wait for dark to give it a try.Hope you enjoy the read!

Thanks Rich, My best build yet!:yh: And that's your copper sink keeping that 044 cool, with your focus adapter to keep my fingers from burning which happened a couple of times before I put it on. Och! Thanks a ton for such great work and at a good price I might add:yh: Thanks for all the help and support as I learn!
