Re: 1.8W Ehgemus Custom 26650 Black Host
I suppose if you wanted it set for a fixed distance, making a lens to create a perfect dot would be pretty easy... but since the size of the rectangle changes with different focal lengths, it wouldn't work unless you also had an adjustable focal lens similar to a telephoto lens on a camera, but then so many pieces of glass would be involved you would lose much more power than you would gain by making a dot.
Remember, at these powers a small rectangle is virtually the same as a dot.... the main thing a true dot would give is greater distance shots.... but as I mentioned what good is that if the power is much less and not to mention the cost of such a lens or collimator.
