Here is a compact very tightly designed host.
It is 4.5"x .875" and made from 6061 aluminum. It uses one 18650 battery and has a pocket to press fit the diode into. The pocket for the driver is .625"x.4" and easily fits a flexdrive v4 which i designed it for. It is also threaded for a standard lens housing (m9x.5). I tried to make this host have good heatsinking and be very compact.
The Pictures below are of anodized Aluminum which is how the host comes.

Added a picture with a kryton next to it for size comparison, just to show how small this host is while still using a nice sized battery heatsink. Price drop!!!!!
Basic Style(Pictured below)
---------------$50 +shipping---------------
Here is everything included starting front to back.
*Focus ring(threaded for m9x.5), same diameter as the rest of body for easy focusing, just screw on standard lens assembly.
*Heatsink, It has a pocket to press fit a 5.6mm diode directly into it with a 45 degree chamfer to help with press fitting. The diode presses into the heatsink in the middle of the heatsink to help distribute heat better. You will need a special piece to press fit the diode since it is recessed into the heatsink but I will include that at no extra charge. The driver pocket is also milled into the heatsink for compact design.
*Press fit tool, just a piece of aluminum turned and drilled to the correct diameter to help press fit the diode
*Battery tube, holds one 18650 or two cr123s.
*Tailcap, comes with clicky on-off switch from deal extreme installed. These are the gold plated one to allow better connectivity.
*Excellent customer Service, I spend a couple of hours a day on LPF and check my email/messages many times a day. I won't over promise anything, and I will stay in contact with anyone I am doing business with. I don't have a lot of rep or a high post count but I will get that built up over time.
Add on options
**** $15 Aixiz 405 coated glass lens (what I paid for them)
**** $45 AR coated glass lens, I get these lenses from LarryDFW and I make the brass housings. He assembles them all together and lives very close to me. I can pick up an assembly from him and include it with your host order.
