    Nice videos! I really dig the dual button idea on those!

    Might want to try that on one of these

    Romisen RC-G4 1x18650/2xLIR123A CREE flashlight(FC-RC-G4) - CREE LED Flashlight - Flashlights, Batteries and more - Quality China Goods

    I put to big of a switch into mine, and really needed the other type that your using. The cool part on these is that the circuit board goes into it's own housing. So that you don't have the grounding problem.

    There is a slightly bigger 16 led light that would work better for 2 buttons- only6$ - That light you found looks a little pricey!

    Glad you like the video.

    got this from DealExtreme: $4.88 12 LED UV Flashlight Black


    Top section comes off. Gonna build my own magnum.. (I think)

    Not much as a flashlight but case shows promise. (coarse it take 2/3 weeks to deliver!!!!)

    those from DX are the best- the lock out switch is better than auto zone fl's- the same but better

    I think I would get one that already uses CR2 or 18650 batteries. I seen in the video you had to have side spacers for the cheaper flashlight.

    IMO

    Default Nice video

    Thanks for the helpful vid Robert. I've been gathering parts to try to make my own mod as well. Still have lots oif questions tho (maybe just haven't dug into the forums enough yet?) For example, what batteries do you use, and whats the best way to recharge them? What type of atty and what method you used to attach it (adapter)? I did see quite a bit about using RCA jacks which imo looks great. I'm currently vaping like mad to burn out some parts so I can use them, lol. Anyway thanks again-I'm sure I'll have more questions soon.
