Nice host, but depending on the diode in there, you won't be able to fit a heatsink other than the aixiz in that. Also, it would have to run on a lava drive due to the battery voltage.

Other wise, a nice host.

I really like the host. But fitting a module in it would be a VERY tight build, but not impossible at all. I'm sure jayrob could look into this if it gets many requests.

I, for one, vote +1 on it.

It could work for PHR's...maybe a 6x without pushing it too hard.

If your looking for a good deal on PHR's for this build, try out Modwerx Laser Components and Accessories.

As for 10440 batteries and charger - again! http://modwerx.com/shop/36v37v-multifunction-battery-charger-grey-p-26.html & http://modwerx.com/shop/3637v-10440-aaa-size-battery-2-pack-p-27.html

Awesome price. I bought 4 batteries.

Just a note about those batteries. It says not to discharge below 2.75v

That's incorrect.

DO NOT discharge Li-ions below 3V.


That host seems great but too $$$. I've been looking for a 1xaaa host myself for my 2nd phr diode i have.

Would it fit the entire aixiz module ?

Looking at its dimensions, I'm thinking it would.

The rayfoss / lava drivers would work perfectly.

Yeah, an aixiz would fit there, but as I said before, it'll be a very tight build.
