I've been keeping busy lately with a few flashlight builds in between assembling drivers. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to take many pictures during the build because my GF was gone for the weekend and needed the camera. I still have to go out on a dark and foggish night to take some beamshots...

Okay, so I finally was able to cram two benboosts in a gouged out and modified Phobos host from Euds, and the beast lives... BUT Every different 16mm clicky I've tried, from either DX or KD... work for 3-4 seconds, start flickering, and die in a puff of smoke. No more clicking, no more...

Okay, so I've searched thru all the threads I could find about the AMC7135 chips on the forums, and google, and tho I've seen alot of mentions of people running these off two Li-Ions, with a total Vin 2.4V higher than 'recommended' max voltage, and 1.4V over absolute maximum input voltage...

I bought some parts to produce my own BenBoosts, and I noticed that tthe volume discount on some parts get really interesting at the 1000-5000 part range. I ended up purchasing 1000 inductors, and can now pass them off at much lower prices than the distributors themselves, as I will not be...

These have been approved for sale by RHD and Benmwv. I bought a pcb board of 100 benboosts off Mohgasm, since he doesn't have the spare time to keep producing them. I ordered parts to complete the 100 boards, along with the set resistors to supply any of the combinations in post #1 of the...

Here's the prelude. I bought 100 pieces of Benboost PCB off of Mohgasm, and now that I am going to assemble them and quite possibly sell off some of them (given I get the green light from ben), I wanted to have a quick and easy way to individually test every unit produced. And so, this ugly...

Yeah, so this is a few months old, I basically made this last fall, but until now didn't really have a chance to share it with many people, and it's one of the builds I'm most proud out of almost anything I've ever done. It basically uses a stripped down Xbox 360 controller, wired to 100%...

Well, they were up on Moh's site, but seems like they've been taken down. Sent him a PM asking if he had any left, but if he doesn't... Anyone got some leftovers ? Or know of any place that still sells em ? All I can find from the different vendors on here are out of stock flexdrives and a few...

So I have a little bit of spare time on my hands and still waiting on some drivers to finish my 445nm build in my second Phobos host... so I went ahead and gave it a little shine. It turned out absolutely awesome. Hope you like it! It's sitting next to my (not for long) unpolished 532nm build...

I don't think I need to say much more... Anyone here play ? I enjoy killing some strangers mostly with co-workers... and just had my best match since Modern Warfare 3 came out. Domination on hardhat. The other team was way soft Edit; This is on Xbox 360, btw.

I think I've got this down pretty good but let's go over it once more to be sure. Let's say I'm driving 4 XMLs with a buck driver with a 1V drop. I want each of em to run @ 3A. From the datasheet, I can gather that they will be dropping about 3.35V each... If I were to run them in series, off...

I need heatsinks done for a few flashlight builds, some projector Phlatlight builds (mostly in maglite hosts)... and am now looking for someone to mill these sinks for me. None of these will be over the top complicated... so if you're interested in this just drop a reply or a pm...

Well, I recently ordered a few non-conventional sizes of Li Ions, and since I'm pretty much covering the whole spectrum, took a few pictures of different sizes. Please keep in mind that there are varying 25-26000 series cells, and that they are not all the exact same size; coming in 25500 25600...

Well, it's finally here. I never really introduced myself properly in the forums, so I might as well give a little bit of background behind this, and me. First of all, I'm a french canadian, so you'll have to pardon the somewhat dysfunctional english at times. I'm a 27 year old 'self taught'...

So I just went and picked up this new 'smoke machine' last night... and had to try it out, and produce a few beamshots, even tho the only thing I have right now that's worthy of being pictured is a 405.... Let's not waste anyone's time and get to the photos. The "machine" And Beamshots

Ordered this about a week ago along with some IMRs from AvidVaper... anyways, the warnings go as follow

I just recently ordered and received this 445nm diode premounted to a module from one of the forum sellers... and it appears to be pressed in ever so slightly crooked. I have allready contacted the seller and while he's provided me with very good service, and offered that I could send it back...
