SOLD OUT --Rnd 2 Host+Heatsink $20 Shipped

Re: Rnd 2 Host+Heatsink $20 Shipped

If there are any left, I'll take one (or two for that matter).
 





Re: Rnd 2 Host+Heatsink $20 Shipped

I'm going to go get my mail and count out everything i have, and whats owed to get an exact number.

I've also got a host downstairs that i lost the rubber cover to the clicky switch! So it's been sitting around. I'm hoping i'll find it laying on the floor one of these days.
 
Re: Rnd 2 Host+Heatsink $20 Shipped

Alright so it seems that only black hosts will be available. The new package contained 12 black, 1 silver.

The silver's are all spoken for per spyder's order. So if you want one of these it has to be black.

This is why i'm glad i didn't accept any payments :)
 
Re: Rnd 2 Host+Heatsink $20 Shipped

Hey Mohrenberg... I PM'd ya on the last round (didn't get in quick enough :yabbem:). However, I've found a different host...so if you're holding one for me...you can release it for someone else.

I may need a heatsink for the one I have so i'll PM ya about that one..

Cheers! :beer:
 
Re: Rnd 2 Host+Heatsink $20 Shipped

I'll be finishing up the rest of them today. I've sent PMs out to everyone.
 
Re: Rnd 2 Host+Heatsink $20 Shipped

Allright got my host today and have to say it is a great host for the money. Had it up in running it 5 minutes.

I just scraped the sidewall with a little screwdriver for a good negative contact and soldered the wires in place from the drivers.

When you screw the head down make sure that the heatsink does not spin which could cause your wires to become twisted. I used a focus adapter and lens screwed down tight. Hold the focus ring and the host while spinning the head down tight.

I also found that an 18650 fits very nicely without having to clip the spring at all.

Here is a shot of the clicky action. It is very comfortable to use.

And there you have it. An inexpensive host fitting an 18650 that is ideal for 445, 405, 650, etc builds.

Thanks Mohrenberg

Great work.:gj:
 
Re: Rnd 2 Host+Heatsink $20 Shipped

Damn you beat me to it DTR!!! Well done!!(waiting on parts in the mail to complete build)
 
Re: Rnd 2 Host+Heatsink $20 Shipped

Yeah but there was a screw-up with his heatsink, i'm sending him a new one. Lol he beat you cause we're in the same state, he gets his packages from me the next day.

Also, I scraped the top lip of the body so that it would make contact with the heatsink, for a case-negative contact. So you really just need to add the positive contact to the clicky, as long as you've got your module set-up as a case-negative module.

Also, I've gotten 11 heat sinks done. I'll be packaging stuff up today (This evening i mean).

The set up is designed to be a case negative. The way I set it up was redundant. In case anyone is confused by what this means here is a cutout of the flex manual for setting up case-negative contact.

His heatsink was a little small on the head which left it a little loose. But he was extremely quick to respond and is sending me a new one out tomorrow. Great customer service Mohrenberg.:beer:

Nah I don't want one. I've been doing some trades for parts and will be making myself a 445. But luckily I can simple make an entire host :D
I've already got my green in a custom host, and will make a similar one for my 445.

BTW, I just bought 90 flashlights.
The color is kind of an ugly blue, But it's a 3xAAA host so i'm thinking 18650 :D
Plus it comes with a holster and seems about the same quality as these guidemans in this post.
But for the price i couldn't pass it up. It's also a side clicky. I'll add pictures of it.
I got 10 of them todaqy and just ordered another 80
 
Re: Rnd 2 Host+Heatsink $20 Shipped

Cool love to see the pictures. Well Your host should be here tomorrow, and I will stuff the 405nm/500mw into it. post a pic of your green or send me the link.
 
Re: Rnd 2 Host+Heatsink $20 Shipped

I'm out of grey :(
Only black hosts are left.
