Okay, so I just got my custom ehgemus host in the mail today! I drew it up on paint what i wanted, and sent it to Ehgemus, and he whipped up an awesome awesome custom host for me. I have to send the head off to DTR, so he can press a diode in it for me, since I have no vise and don't wanna knock a diode in there with a hammer

Also, I've read plenty of threads and DTR's tutorials saying how smooth the clicky switches are on these. I had NO idea, that it was THIS smooth. This host is a work of art, so solid and heavy, well made, and just all around PERFECT, I have gone through plenty of 445's and this is one that I will be holding onto for a very very long time.

I will update this thread when I get the head back, and show you all the outcome.
I am going for 1.8A, the host is PERFECTLY fit to my IMR 4000mAh 26650 battery, so this sucker will be rock solid with some good run times.
Wish me luck everyone, and here's the eye candy!

Yeah, not even the nicest, highest quality converted flash light host can compare to his works of art.

There is nothing like getting your first Ehgemus host. I have 2 on their way... unfortunately I think customs has decided to hold all of my hosts. Apparently they are a threat to national security. :)

Well I don't have a real camera athe moment. It is In Florida with the rest of my family. but, I got my direct press head with a diode In it back from DTR today, so I got to finally put everything together at long last! Here are some iPhone pics, to the best of my abilities. Will update with lpm tests here In a little while!

Re: My Custom Ehgemus 445!

This iphone camera does it no justice. I don't think my real one could either haha.

It's my favorite host ever.
I'm home now, so can see what it does at 1.8A
