Guest vin Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 vin That looks great vin where did you get the stage lighting gels atb sunday hello matey. the one in picture is a bit of a car back brake-light lens .... its only a tester set up to see if it worked.. it does so i would probably use a plantpot for the next one i make. you can get stage lighting gels from any disco supplies type shop.. or theatrical suppliers.and ebay ...its only very thin though so it would,nt stand up to much hammer.. the brake light lens is obviously a lot tougher.. and theres loads in the scrapyard...i just grinded it into the shape and size i wanted. atb vin Quote Link to post

Guest vin Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Vin i would like to upgrade my other torch a mag 3d cell but dont want the aspherical lens on this one what would you recommend theres nothing as good as the aspheric kit for lamping etc etc..but they do also loads of differant type of powerfull kits.. ive got a SSC P7 moddified LEd mag thats very good also..it has a 3 stage and its very bright ...but it dont throw as long and tight as the aspherical kit..and if you put the aspherical kit on the LED it dont work as it coppies the LED pattern which is 4xleds inside..it just looks wrong etc etc.. but as a good all round powerfull versatile torch with a massive bright beam,its great. heres a link http://flashlightnews.net/forum/index.php?topic=810.0 theres loads of different led set up and kits..but the main thing is the aspherical lens...and a forward throwning powerfull single LED if you want one for LAMPING etc etc atb vin Quote Link to post
