Well KipKay will surely love this kit! I happened to come across a massive amount of Mini Mag's recently so I will be selling them as a host kit.
Kit comes with the host color of your choice (TerraLux tail switch only comes in black), TerraLux tail switch, machined spacer for 14650 battery, an additional spacer to stack if you wish to use a 14500 battery, battery contact pill, O-ring to hold everything together, and a heatsink.
I have been asked why a 14650 battery? Well, you get 1600mAh vs 900mAh with a 14500. The size difference between the two batteries is 15mm. I AM NOW OFFERING A 15MM SPACER IN ADDITION TO THE ORIGINAL SPACER AT NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE TO YOU IF YOU WISH TO USE A 14500 RATHER THAN A 14650!
Also, let me tell you these TerraLux tail switches are awesome. VERY firm press action on the button. No more twisting the head for power on/off. Just depress the switch!
Maglite is iconic in America for their lights (not their power though
) and now you can have a proper build inside of one! Heck, I may even send one to KipKay if I can find his mailing address
.
The build is very straight forward. Contact pill can be cut for driver insertion, or driver can fit inside of hollow machined spacer. Ground can either come from the diode case pin (you'll have to clean off the anodizing inside the head) or from the battery pill to spacer (preferred method).
These are VERY nice in black!
Price is $40 plus S&H of $4.00. If you already have a Mini Mag and want just the parts to DIY, I will sell the heatsink, spacer, o-ring and TerraLux switch for $30.
Here are the available color options:
PLEASE keep in mind when choosing a color that the TerraLux tail switch ONLY comes in black!
More info to come later this evening. All you must remember is Maglite rocks, I have an almost endless supply of any standard color that you want, and, YOU WANT/NEED ONE OF THESE!
