Woo Woo!!Payment sent!! check your Paypal
Yep I think I will. I'm really locking forward to it as I loved his brass host also got any 10440 battery recommendations?Woo Woo!!
I know that you know how bright strong greens are but, you will still be surprised to just how bright
Yea I'll also use relatively low capacity IMR 10440s so I expect small run times but I don't care all that much cause the battery itself will also charge very fast and I could always get a bigger cap one and get a drop in power with it. Ps GSS The other brand is PK cell IIRCUsing 10440 cells to power this high powered laser is not a great idea. These green diodes put out a lot of heat making them run very hot in tiny EDC hosts. I can see the attraction for having such a powerful diode in a tiny host, but expect very short run times. And these tiny batteries will also give you short run times between charges. Green diodes have high forward voltages that pull more power out of batteries than red or blue diodes.
Yup, I meant the PK cells. I never bought them but a buyer of my phaser had good luck using them on a 2W blue..Yea I'll also use relatively low capacity IMR 10440s so I expect small run times but I don't care all that much cause the battery itself will also charge very fast and I could always get a bigger cap one and get a drop in power with it.

Thanks, I also saw some efest 10440s imr bats, will these do better( here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Efest-IMR-...658654?hash=item4b672eaa1e:g:yRcAAOSwvrddI2yy )? also I have another host like this that I'll use for a 488 built 10440 too. I think the 10440 will be much happier with the lower drain current of the 488 right?Hi, Yes those 10440's are only good for a SM 520, larger than that duties are very short and they get very hot so keep those duties down. If I see correctly thats a Brass host and Brass isn't the greatest heat dissipator, Aluminum or Copper would be much better.
I only use Brass for the battery tubes and tail caps not heat sinks. Over all its a nice build the 03's are very bright.
Anyway have fun and be safe.
