Well I've finally got my Lux up and running. Had to get some new batteries for it, my 350's were just too long.
I've only got it paired up with an X9 Protank clone at the moment, but for the size of the GP, it's unbelievable how good this thing performs. The switch is almost like a touch sensor, I can hardly tell that I'm pushing it in.
What a great piece of kit, this thing hits like a train

Mine Arrived this Morning as well
Same here with the Battery tried an AW 18350 button top and it is continually on ( Firing) !!
Efest flat top 18350s work great though

There are two screws for the Telescopic Post, one is fitted on the Lux (or Paps v2.5) and the 'other' is in the spares bag. NOTE: Both the screws ARE NOT SAME. Thus, the 'other' one is NOT a spare. One screw is thinner than the other. You may swap them based on your battery size... I typically keep the thin one always on my mod.
Domo has lux's and spheroids in stock again.
Still no 18650 lux tubes though...

Big is always better? Nah!
Sometimes, somethings really ROCK in small packages
Hi, few pages back is my pictorial on cleaning & shining the Lux. I've not polished it yet, around 4-months now, and don't intend to either. Pls check that post.
My Lovely LUX - had a Shower!
Well, it is 2.5 months now since I received my Lux... and it was put into some use indeed. Thus, today morning I thought why not give this beauty a shower... it was about time, wasn't it?
No Polish used, just deep cleaned with common stuff from the kitchen...
Washed and scrubbed it with Dish Detergent and Scotch Brite. Then kept it dipped it in a warm solution of Salt & Vinegar for 10-15 minutes...
Made a paste of equal parts of Salt & Wheat Flour with some Vinegar...
Rubbed the Lux with that paste, all the time rotating it in its horizontal plane, for about 10-15 minutes...
Washed it under running water, dabbed it with paper towel and...
Rubbed it enough with some Mothers Microfiber Cloth...
It came out with a nice 'brushed' look...
I'm avoiding using compound polish for as long as I can b'coz I feel it's sheen stays longer without its use. And once touched with polish - it'd need it's frequent use - else it'd look drab IMHO.
Just needed to bring it more to the front for my viewing pleasures. I will be trying this process today. My LUX has been under a month of dedicated use, and I feel I have neglected its hygiene!
Domos shipping is lightning fast as far as I can tell. I ordered at 1pm 5 seconds after the store opened and it shipped around 5. Scheduled delivery for Monday. Can't wait to use a lux!
Q,
I tried the process on the LUX. It didn't quite shine it like it appears in your photos. I didn't use the ScotchBrite though as I wasn't sure if I wanted to put a "brush" look on it.
Anything else in your arsenal for getting the shine back on?

Brother, apply some dish washing liquid and slowly "rub" with a soft cloth (an old T-Shirt type). Wash it up under running lukewarm water AND repeat the process once more. Then gleam it up thru dry rubs with a similar cloth piece and you should be good!
I've got mine coming monday. What looks good on it other than the Senisis and Spheroid? The best looking atty I have right now is the Ithaka.
