Hi 350xfire,

Are you still selling canisters without the light head?
Can you give some specifications like price, how many 18650's they can hold, dimensions,...

I might be interested in one.

I wanted to build my own so I searched the internet and mailed companies like oxycheq, but I'd pay way too much due to all the shipping charges etc. I also don't have access to a lathe, so your solution could save me some money.

any idea what the shipping charges to Brussels (Belgium) would be?

thanks,
Johan

Johan:
In a flat rate box, shipping would be about $35 for international. Base canisters hold up to 8 18650. I can do bigger. COmplete would be close to $200. Base can is 1.95IDx6.5" deep x 10.5" overall.
Thanks

Hey are you selling any any time soon? Can you send me a PM on pricing for some and the options? I was recommended to you by a friend. Prefer HID but I want at least 500 lumen +. Thanks. I will be waiting for your reply.

Thanks man. I have not gotten back to you yet because on the other post that battery you linked off that site is sold out for the time being. I am not electrical gifted so I am waiting out until everything is there before I jump the gun. I want to make sure I am buying something I will not regret.

Also how hard is it to replace those bulbs if they do go out? Since you said once they are gone they are gone.

No problem. I have a battery builder that told me he could build those packs for $68 if you are interested in that.

You will need Anderson connectors for battery and charger which I can provide.

Bulb replacement is done by unscrewing the cap, removing the old one and putting the new one in. Bulb/Ballast is available for $100 through Newpex and it is thye standard Brightstar HID.

Thanks
Hector

are the 12 watt HID lights a narrow or wide angle beam?
