Everyone here have probably seen Do-Clos UV blade. And they also probably thought it was pretty cool :wink:
Well, so did I and look what I've found on the net surfing around!

Could you fit that in a saber?
If anyone her happens to have a mini maglite, that person maybe could give some measures and other stuff that helps to find out if this is a saber possibilty...

it would probably be too big. the three C and D cell maglites have a good 2 inch end and that thing goes all the way up

Aaah... I got the size mixed up, thought it was for the mini mag.
Well, well: I did find another, and this one is really for the mini mag.
1 watt it says... It looks small, do you think you could have more than one?

I found something that I think is a possablility for a purple led.
I dont know anything about do-clos setup and I seen this just by accident.

Now with a mini maglight in front of me I took it apart and have found that the reflector disk whatchamadoohickeymabobagigey will fit inside the place where the optics sits in the led bladeholders.
So my guess is maybe have a custom optics holder or take the optics and set it on top of the reflector diskmabob thats used on the minimags.
make a custom heatsink for it to sit on and figure out how to wire the dohickeymabob for a button switch instead of the twisty thingy that the minimags have.
Is it possable?

k, that was one hard post to read with all the doo hickey's in it :roll: :shock:
that would be a super dim blade. Do Clo's setup used two to three times as many uv leds if i remember correctly. :?

What does 40 Mw turn into for lumens?
The lux 3 blue only has 30 lumens and thats pritty darn bright still. so maybe this maglight thingamagig might work.
