Alright, So I have done the whole C6 engraving thing, got C6 sinks cnc machined and anodized, got anodized and cnc machined focus adapters...

What should I get next?
I was thinking of doing copper modules. I've already got the quote, the resale price would be around $3ea., which seems to be about ~77% cheaper than anywhere i can find, unless i just don't know where to look.

Is this something you all would find appealing?
 





I've not got as far as mounting diodes myself yet (it's only a matter of time) but that sounds like a bargain to me. I think they were about $13 where I last looked.
Copper module, aluminium heatsink - great combination :)
 
Copper modules would be a good idea. People still asking for copper heatsinks for the C6 hosts.

:( but I really hate copper heat sinks. They are ugly and a pain in the ass to machine.

Although i guess if I'm not the one having to make them, it doesn't much matter to me.
 
It would be near on impossible but custom silicone clicky caps would look pretty neat
 
3.8mm modules, pleeaasseee. 3.8mm diodes are popping up everywhere now :)
 
Copper modules are a great idea! At 3$ a piece I would definitely use them over aixiz modules.

Another thing that I think you should stock is the lens springs; if it is possible to find a source for them.
 
Next thing should be a gold plated 5.6mm module. :D
 
9 mm and 3.8 mm diode modules... just aluminum made ones are fine, coppers too expensive...


red 3 element glass lens in stock wouldn't hurt either.
 
Copper 5.6mm modules are the clear winner here. Guys, what's the old saying?

"Don't let perfect, be the enemy of good."

Copper 5.6mm Aixiz-like modules may not be the ultimate solution to all of our heat dissipation needs. But they sure would go a long way towards improving builds. And at $3 each, they're going to be accessible to EVERYONE. That's almost on par with normal brass Aixiz modules.

As far as I can see - this is a clear no-brainer.

Yes some copper modules would be great! And at 3$ too is amazing its less then your standard Aixiz :D

Make copper modules for 3.8mm/5.6mm/9mm diodes. That would be nice.

more host and heatsinks

The problem with that is I have to buy a minimum of 500 heat sinks. So I have to choose hosts/heat sinks that i know i can eventually sell.

i know with copper modules, i could sell them rather fast
