So one day I was playing with my 50mW olike in a leadlight mod, It was getting warm after 1 minute of use and I didn't like that so, I though about making a slip on heat sink for the leadlight, then I though why not just make it look like a mini rpl! And so here she is! I have to give credit to Barry for making this come true though, All I sent him was a crappy paint drawing of the heatsink but he still manages to make it even better then I dreamed! Thank you so much Dark Horse!! ;)
Introducing the mini rpl! :)

I had to sand the top section of the leadlight so i could have good thermal contact, it looks like copper under the shiny silver. ;D

Awesome! Does the heatsink allow for no duty cycle?

Actually im not to sure, dh probably can answer that, but it does keep the modual a lot cooler so the duty cycle would be alot better then with just the leadlight(plus it looks cool!) ;D

I think it is a great-design ;)
With your permission, I would like to stock these as a regular-item, and include "ES" in the final-name, to reflect your influence on the product.
These may seem like a novelty at first, but everyone who I have shown it too, has stopped laughing and wanted one. They actually increase the heatsinks capabilities of the little pen-host by several-times. Nice-job!!

Of corse you may, also that would be cool if you put my screen name, it really is a great heatsink, it makes a leadlight look from wimpy and skinny to buff and mean:d
