Hi, I searched the forums, and did not entirely find the answers to my question. So, here we go. I just recently purchased a G2 lens from Aixiz for my 445nm A140 build, and I can't seem to get it to focus at all. What I mean by that is my standard focusing ring is not able to be screwed onto the lens housing, since when I try focusing the beam my focus ring bottoms out on my heatsink while only being threaded on 2 threads. Second when I try focusing the beam without a focusing ring, the lens in almost all the way inside the module. I am attempting to set the beam to infinity using a garage located 200 yards away, however the best I can get the spot is about 12 inches. When I point it into the EMPTY night sky and try to set it to infinity, it always looks to be expanding with distance even at its best focus. I have it installed with the slots out, and the lens closest to the diode window rather than upside down. I haven't seen one with a lens barrel this short or had as much trouble focusing, as it seems to be very temperamental with very minor adjustments. Please help me if you can. I really like my 3 element, but would like to experience the G2 bliss you all do. Thanks in advance guys.

Also, The beam looks to be thinner, than my 3 element no matter how it is focused. I thought the G2 would to the complete opposite.
