Isaac's WTB Thread!!! Lots of Things!

[IsaacT]

So since China is apparently having their holiday shindig right now, I want to try and buy somethings I was going to get on fasttech from you guys. I will pay some overhead on these items since I am going through a middle man(you), but I do know the prices from China so please don't ask for double the price or anything. I am a very good buyer when it comes to quickly sending funds and whatnot. That out of the way, here is a list of items I need/want.

The List:
1. Panasonic 18650 Batteries, they are about 17 dollars for two online, let me know what you are asking.
2. Fasttech Module/s ....I am looking for one or two to build for friends. I would prefer LPM readings if possible. Price is 10 dollars online, let me know what you are asking.
3. Tripod w/ Clamp for lasers ....I need one or two of these. Prices are around 10 dollars just let me know what you have and what you want for them.
4. C6 Pill w/ Brass Ring. Survival Lasers has these but I have never purchased from them and don't feel the need really.
5. Mitsubishi 110mW Single Mode Diode. I don't wanna buy from China, these are priced at about 37 dollars per piece.

That is all for now, may need more in the future. If you have a cool laser you want to sell toss me a PM I may want to snag it! I will of course pay for shipping, just let me know what you want to sell the ITEM for and I will tack on about 6 dollars for the shipping(exception: if the item is too large to place in a flat rate USPS box let me know and we can figure out shipping cost)

Cheers,
Isaac

1. 3400mah or 3100mah? Or the new high discharge 2900mah? You can get the 3100mah ones on ebay for 7.5$ a cell. Not really worth the $/Wh upgrade to the 3400mah ones in my opinion.
2. I can buy you a couple fastech modules and meter them for you if you would like, but I assume you want something faster than that

I have good luck with FT. They have always been about a week for me. I know they are in holiday, but this might be a good test for them.

I got my tripod clamp (but not the tripod) from survival lasers. Likewise I got my C6 stuff from them. It is run by a forum member here and he gives excellent service. Never had any issues.

I have some modules I totally forgot to get back to you sending you a pm now

 

[scumbagatheist]

Get your batteries from LarryDFW.

I have a pegged out Fasttech module I can let you have. Make me an offer as its already tuned to its max.

I have an ingenuous hack for the C-6 brass ring problem, if you're using a module or directly soldered driver.

Make me an offer on my SL USA tripod and clamp. I never use it. It's 3 weeks old.

I have a great SAiK and Eudamonium heatsink, pill, and 3.1A Blitzbuck pre-installed on a custom, pill mounted heatsink with additional heatsinking. I'll take $100 for it. (It's the one I killed the diode for tonight. It's immediately going back up in the sale thread if the diode gets here first. Otherwise, I can keep the diode for my Kryton. But, I really want to save up for a new Ophir.

 

[IsaacT]

What is your "hack" for the C6 problem? I tried just soldering a sprin but my issue is that with the heatsink and the host being anodized, I can't get a connection.

I will think about that Saik for a bit, that is not a bad deal and I want to build another 9mm build.....3.1A you say? That is an insane current lol!

 

[scumbagatheist]

3.1A is the max setting. It's currently set to 2.4a, but I can easily set it for whatever you want.

I knew that was your problem...same as mine. I went to a local hardware store and found a brass ring that is a lamp part, soldered my Vin lead to it w a torch lighter and pressed it in. Idk what it's called. I just searched and found something that fit! I'm on my phone now, but if you go through my posts, you will find it from very recently. Otherwise, remind me tomorrow and I'll give you the photo link.

 

[IsaacT]

Well, I don't even have the pill to press it in with...unless you mean search around for a threaded ring....which is totally possible. I may stop by Lowe's after Final's Week is over and see if I can find anything.

 

[scumbagatheist]

Isaac, if you're using a green module, there is no pill needed. Here' a pic of my hack:

I think the ring is part of the lamp upper assembly. This particular ring was near the perfect diameter to press right into the host.

I did have to ream out the center of it though, to fit the board and length of lead through it, then just pressed it right in.

The host hasn't flickered once since using this fix.

Good luck.
