Here is one project I am working on, I'm planning on a dual flexdrive mod with a NDB 7675 diode and 20mm copper module,
Set at 2.7a just like the other adjustable custom host I built, pushing it" at this current with only a IMR 14500 but that's the plan.
So I ordered the Tea 20 witch is the larger jetbeam from Fastech and what happened, they sent the smaller one $120 gone and instead of shipping back and waiting again decided to keep it and then ordered the larger one from eBay this time shipped from the US another $130 and now I have both.
These are the only decent looking well built gold plated Flashlights you can get and I wanted a powerfull 470nm beam coming from it, since it's already called Jetbeam,
This project has stalled for the moment though, just cannot get the head unscrewed, I tried acetone to loosen up the glue on the threads, I also slipped on 2 stainless hose clamps with rubber under tightened them up and used 2 multi grips and nothing, so lucky I didn't scratch the gold plating off,
The smaller Tea 30 has slots in the driver compartment to easily unscrew and it opens just fine but the larger one doesn't and looks like the head cap unscrews and driver and led slide out the front.
Unless I can get it opened without damage this build is scrapped,
So enjoy my nearly $400 spent on project parts, Thanks for looking!
