    SUREFIRE WEAPON LIGHT
    RECHARGEABLE CONVERSION
    350 LUMENS
    TWO HOURS RUN TIME
    $175
    OR $135 FOR THE FLASHLIGHT
    WITH CHARGER
    SHIPPED

    Hi guys,
    I have made a rechargeable conversion of a Surefire 6P flashlight, into a weapon light of 350 lumens.

    You can mount this baby in a 5.56 mm a 50 caliber or a shotgun, it will shrug recoil no matter what caliber you shoot. And is rechargeable.
    How come?
    I have machined the interior of the Surefire body, to accept the use of a premium quality Lithium Ion rechargeable battery,

    surerech.jpg


    The special machined Surefire body is a part of the equation.
    The Lamp is a new one and output and incredible 350 lumens (well more than any Surefire weapon light)

    The tail cap has a remote cable switch with pressure pad, so you can place it on the stock of your rifle or shotgun, under your thumb. Yes thumb pressure will activate the light.
    IT IS ALSO PROVIDED WITH A CLICK TAILCAP for when the light is out of the rifle.

    Usually this type of light uses 123’s batteries, they go fast under the power of 345 lumens, so we opted for a long run time battery, rechargeable, that will last you close to 2 hours of run time.

    Moreover, when you are unsure of how much battery juice is in the battery, just pop it into the charger and you get a full charged battery, ideal if you practice much night shooting with your AR.
    You cannot do that with 123’s primary batteries unless you are willing to dump expensive half used batteries.

    Li Ion technology will provide extend use if you don’t use the light, an occasional full top charge every 5 months will keep the battery at full capacity.

    We have used a crenellated bezel up front, but I also have available a flat bezel.

    I provide the light with a Weaver type ring, or an all steel quick detach LEVER mount, so you only have to attach it to a Weaver or Picattiny rail.

    E-mail me if you want to mount it on a sporting rifle and need to know which mount to use and where in the rifle to put it.

    Charger good for 110 to 240 volts, I provide plugs for Australian, European or UK if necessary

    $175 shipped in the USA
    $190 shipped International
    or $135 for the flashlight with the 350 lumens 5 function lamp.

    PAY PAL at:
    jcharles11784(at)yahoo(dot)com
    or I can send you a paypal request and you can pay it with your credit card.

    Also write me a this e-mail if you need more information or want to pay with money order, or check.

    If you PM me here, it will take longer to answer you, as I am working away from the computer, while e-mails I always can answer from my cell phone.

    SAVE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS

    Surefire weapon lights are very good, but they run on RC123’s batteries, which are costly (around $2 each for the Surefire brand).

    A two battery Surefire will do 65 lumens for 1 hour on two batteries or 120 lumens for 20 minutes with the P-61 lamp.

    A 3 battery weapon light will do 200 lumens on three 123’s batteries for 20 minutes.

    That is $18.00 in batteries for one hour to throw a 200 lumens beam, with a lamp’s life of 36 hours.

    You can see such a light (a Surefire 9P) on the picture left. On the right side is my offering of the tactical weapon light with a lamp life of 50,000 hours, running on a rechargeable battery with 2 hours run time, and outputting 300 lumens.


    The battery life is 2,000 hours (it can be recharged 1,000 times) after that, a new battery will cost $23 shipped.

    If you were to use the Surefire 200 lumens light for 2,000 hours you will spend $36,000 in batteries.

    Stop wasting money in expensive 123’s and e-mail me for the tactical weapon conversion.
    And it’s shorter and lighter too.

    BEAMSHOTS FROM THE NEW LAMPS
    350 LUMENS STRAIGHT
    AND 350 LUMENS

    Due to a new reflector shape, the new lamps have a gain in range of over 20 yards.
    The flood seems to be the same, so people clearing rooms will be well serve.
    Hunters will love the new lamps due to the increased range

    75 yards

    BEAM SHOT AND
    MOUNTING OPTIONS FOR THE
    SUREFIRE WEAPON LIGHT 345 LUMENS

    Here is the beam shot at 30 yards

    2010_022322ruger0011beamof345l.jpg



    Here it is mounted on an AK using an UTG barrel mount

    2010_022322ruger0012.jpg


    Here is is mounted on a Mini 14 in which a Weaver base was screwed and poxi glassed into the forearm

    [
    2010_022322ruger0013.jpg

    And here is mounted on the scope in the top position, but it can also be mounted side ways right or left.
    It is possible to mount in the scope by using a gizmo I made ($25 extra)

    2010_022322ruger0014.jpg




    I took these pictures with the optional flat bezel, I think that the crenellated bezel will catch in brush, and I like better the flat shorter bezel, but it is up to you,
    If you are interested in the Surefire weapon light rechargeable 345 lumens (it will not last long)

    That Beam Shot looks real familiar!!!


    I always shoot from the same location and at the same distance, with the same camera setting, so you can check and see how the new light perform in comparison with the others pictures.

    This new light beam shot was taken today.

    Cheers

    watchmaker, would you be interested in a trade for a surfire M951XM07?

    No, but thank you for offering, I had one in the AR, but I sold both.
    When I had it I wanted more lumens than 120 for 20 minutes run time on two 123's batteries.

    But the 9 volts models is too long, and only provide 225 lumens for 20 minutes.

    the model with 350 lumens for 20 minutes (made on the M=4 body) is as long as the rifle.
    So my search for shorter and more run time, lead me to making mine.
    5.2" long

    345 lumens
    2 hours run time

    $175 shipped

    Thank you for looking

    The tailcap on my two surefire lights are interchangeable despite being totally different models. I switched the caps because I liked one on the other. It's likely it will take any Surefire tailcap.

    Is there a way for you to do this with a regular push button tailcap?

    Yes, if you don't want the pressure switch, you get the tail cap.

    It takes any of the Surefire accessories, filters, IR filters, diffusers etc, any that will fit series C,D,9P, 6P, Z etc (125" diameter)

    Is there only one of these, or are you making them on a per order basis?

    Also, where are you located?

    I am in long island N.Y.

    It seems that is a lot of interest, so I am willing to do some more



    One member e-mail me with questions about he pressure pad switch, and how good was under heavy rain.

    I was willing to try it in a bowl of water, I put a clip on the pressure pad, so the light will stay on, and I submerged it for 15 minutes, while I took the pictures.

    Not a drop of water got inside, not any bubbles raised from the seals.

    It made me feel good.
