Hello guys I just finished my 445 build.

Lens : 405 glass 3 element
Diode : A140
Driver : Flex set to 1.1A
Host : unknown

For the moment I am running 3 rechargeable AAAs(I know..I know) and still,
it is ALOT of power.I am going to be ordering a bunch of 10440s pretty soon and they will be ran in parallel.(18650s are to big for this host) I hope you like the laser guys :) p.s I will get some beam shots tonight and update :tinfoil:

Nice job.:beer:

Those hosts look like the ones Mohrenberg is using for his new host heatsink kit. LINK. It can accept 2x RCR123 batteries and EDIT he has confirmed that it will fit an 18650.

Been down the 1A draw out of 3 10440's in parallel. I would definitely go the 18650 route. Driver heats up quicker because of all the voltage boosting.

Nice build! :gj:

And yeah that looks like the same Guidesman 210-1004 flashlight host that Mohrenberg is selling. The silver host looks nice!

So do you like the host, feel good in your hands? Good clicky? (reverse clicky right?)
