Welcome to my custom flashlight build log!
The LightCanon is an aspheric lens flashlight designed for maximum throw.
 
Called "lightcanon" instead of "lightcannon" so that its easier to find on google, and also because I forgot cannon has two ns instead of one...
 
"Throw" is the distance the light beam can reach. In this case, a high power LED combined with a lens will give us a highly concentrated beam of light, theoretically reaching over 1500m ANSI throw distance.
The total cost of the project approximates almost $400 in parts.
 
 
 
Parts list:
 
-Adhesive black-out material

 
-Cree XP-G2 LED mounted on a Noctigon 20mm board

 
-Fasttech 100mm 5-120 degree aspheric lens

 
-Fasttech V10+ 5A LED driver

 
-Wavien RLT large collar

 
-Intel BXTS13A heatsink

 
-Arctic Silver Alumina thermal adhesive

 
-1S-6S LiPO battery voltage indicator

 
-Associated Reedy 1S 3.7V 8000mAh 70C LiPO battery

 
-100mm PVC sewer pipe

 
-assortment of cables, connectors, and switch
 
-thin 80mm 5V computer fan (from a laptop cooling pad)
 
 
 
The goal:
 
I am confident that this flashlight will be able to reach this distance, as other people using similar hardware have already reached this and more.
When the flashlight is finished we will really see how far it can go...

^ it says 1200m (almost 4000ft) at the bottom center
 
 
 
More coming soon! Thanks for reading

Personal Preference. If you are buying a new 3 way monitor build go for the ASUS RoG Swift 1440p monitor. It is a bit pricy but my gosh is it a beauty and is the best monitor on the market.

A ssd is a drive which is faster and has no moving parts, which means it is very very likely not to break. On your ssd you would keep windows. This is due to if you keep windows on with all your games on one drive your pc would take long to boot up. Only put windows on your ssd. On a hard drive put all your games. Try to go for a 1TB or 2TB hard drive that is 1000/2000GB. Merry Christmas!

forgot to add I had it, thanks though

it doesn't matter about that tbh, just help him out with picking parts.

Don't be such a dick dude.

Jeremy Kyle show right here lmao

yeah, my mom bought me it for my birthday.

yeah, my mom bought me it for my birthday.

I am a fan especially the new season. I think its really good at poking fun at relevant issues in society. 

I don't really know why it turned into a meme tbh. Its just a OST.

Actually there are two sides to South Park there is the "toilet humour" then there is the "social commentary" humour, so while its a very silly show, some episodes can be very political, or comment on real social issues etc - its very cleverly written, its show how messed up the adult world is, but shown through the eyes of kids

Yes, I love the way that they mix pop culture into it, they've adapted into trends and new things. They even made a episode about how the kids (who tried to invent something) they always failed because the Simpsons had created it before them. Pretty funny show.

Title explains it all.

I love Razer, I don't like them because of their fancy lights I like them due to the high quality they put in their products. Please just tell me why you don't like them, it boggles my mind.

Great deal dude!

you'll need more than a 500gb ssd dude get a western digital caviar blue

Wow you're lucky if you're from Germany. The front page today on a newspaper was 15 year old loner hacks talktalk. They then continued to have a picture of cod aw and it said below violent: kids play these games. I play GTA V and I'm 13. I'm a really nice guy and have good friends and I work hard at school I'm just sick of people moaning about gaming. Its been around for 50 years

If you have came from the UK you probably have heard that someone has hacked TalkTalk one of the UKs biggest phone companies. Turns out a 15 year old did it, alone. yeah let that sink in. A FIFTEEN YEAR OLD.
Well guess what the media has started their usual violent games make you violent bs. I would like to hear everyone's opinion on this as I am sick of it. Video games are the biggest source of media in the world!!!!

NO NO ITS NOT FOR ME ITS FOR A FRIEND. Please read it again

Hey, I have a friend who loves gaming and plays on XB1. He was going to get a PS4 at Christmas but me and my friends are trying to get him into PC. Is there anything I should say about the PC and a build which would be the same price as a ps4 would be appreciated which could run just as well or better.
I feel great to be back on the LTT forums

Wait cs:go has a story. GIVE ME YOUR MONEY GABEN

. Yeah, I have wow but I don't play it all that much I usually play it with friends.

he czex fancy seeing you here

I was in the position of OP and you helped me
