I've been reading all the posts on how to build a canister light. Tehy all focus on maglite conversion.
Has anyone tried/is it possible to convert other flashlight types?
For example:
Monster Flashlight Pro P7C-900-5 LED Tactical Flashlight 5-Mode
Just a random selection (not sold on this light), but I like the fact that it is smaller than a maglite, high lumen output, would already have the appropriate electronics and heat sink built in. Am I missing something? I realize tailcap would have to be modified, and the light made waterproof.
In the mag lite conversion, the glass is replaced with thicker glass. Is this for pressure, to withstand heat, or both.
Any and all comments welcome.
