@flashlight for those asking why I’m not on the pictures, working with the others, I was going back and forth from the stage with equipment, because the stage and backstage are 1,10m above the floor, and van, with no elevator or stairs nearby :D

@cobysev @GraniteM I have a french version from 1942 and modded it with a pretty low power, 2700~3000 K single LED drop-in, and more importantly a 18650 battery with integrated USB charging. I built a cheap 2D-18650 adapter by hollowing a piece of wood from the bottom and putting a flat-cut screw through the top to make contact. My grandpa use it and is happy with it. Way more runtime, bit more light, same temp.

@Curious_Canid @Langehund Yes! https://www.nkon.nl/fr/rechargeable/li-ion/overige-formaten/lir2450-knoopcel-120mah.html

@Curious_Canid I read somewhere that the last digit is the shape : 0 for cylindrical

@Hikermick feet light ftw

@mp3 my little sister (21) just now: “I want that!”
Thanks, I now have an excuse to buy them :D
(And 519A-mod them before gifting them)

@mp3 how did you know I wear Crocs

Also dec 8 in Lyon, FR, is a historical festivity all about illuminations.

@bpcomp that’s a way to do it

@bpcomp I think a LEP defeats this purpose.

@SammysHP So it’s one color at once only? No ramping? Only two brightness settings for each channel, + strobe? Still a cool light!

@Zak Thanks!

@fujiwood Messy at the start! https://www.reddit.com/r/flashlight/comments/171lkvk/first_messy_try_at_modding_wip/

Then, since I purchased the LED already soldered on a MCPCB, I desoldered the stock one, ground a bit the new one to fit, soldered the wires back on the new MCPCB and voilà. Changed the thermal paste too.

@infinipurple Indeed!

@flashlight The Nichia heats up faster than the Cree. (IR video on fedi link)

@flashlight Beamshots (on fedi link), still locked settings and 5600K.

@Tuss I think they’re shit too, the effective ones were probably banned in France too. Maybe for the better, being highly toxic things burning in close proximity to people. Non-“volatile chemical” solutions may be a better option.

@Tuss Ooooh okay thanks!
