Einhell flashlight upgrade

I had this flashlight from Einhell lying around, which came with a hand drill and 2 battery packs, but the light that came out of it was meh at best, so I decided to upgrade it.

The before beamshot

The necessary parts were bought from FastTech, which was actually my first order from them, very happy with their service; but I digress.

Original reflector, if you can call it that The whole package

Driver from all angles

The battery pack has 3 Li-ion 18650 cells connected in series, for a total of 10.8 volts, that’s why I went with a 12V driver.

Assembled and testing current: 590mA

There was a lot of space left inside, so the everything fits perfectly.

Testing voltage: 5.24V

Took me about 2 hours to put this thing together.

New reflector

With the new reflector it has a lot more throw, compared to being completely floody originally.

The after beamshot

The new parts cost me $4.58, so I believe this was a really good investment.
