Wow, that looks really good! Especially the rounded cooling slots give it a professional feel. I like it!
Very nice build, I like the packaging. But I still see some room for improvements: clear cover over the lens to keep bugs and stuff out, bug screens on the cooling vents, bigger cross-flow style CPU heatsink, and use R/C car or airplane battery packs for quick swap-out and using OTS chargers.
3 years ago, I started messing around with 18650's. Not knowing my head from a hole in the ground, I build my first battery pack using the method for this build(6S3P). Recently, now with a little knowledge under my belt, I realized that pack was crap and it looked like it was made by a third-grader. Not to mention the cells I used should have been tossed, but it served it purpose and supplied me power for my small projects. 3 years later, and I kept remembering this 100watt led flashlight you made. So again, as I did 3 years ago, I will rebuild a better battery and this led flashlight. I will add the video to my RUclips channel, and give props to you for the build idea!! Should be a better battery pack, considering I have done hundreds since then and built around 12 battery tab welders. The build is for my wife when she walks the dog outside...Thanks again for your neat builds!!!
Wow. I love the heat-shrink on the aluminum. I know you can get rubberized spray paint, but I'd bet the heat-shrink lasts longer. Very cool!
I like the stand you built of leftover pipe! I wish I had that idea earlier. The battery and the li-po checker is also very cool.
This is the best instructional video I've ever watched here. Thank you for your time and know how, and your simple yet thorough detail. I wish more folks could post videos like yours.
WelLRoundeDSquarE Completely agree. And I try, but I make videos in Portuguese. (I'm from Brazil.) :)
oi, montei como essa do video mas a minha ficou fraca . que sera que eu fiz de errado ? kkkkkkkkkkk facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1855595747787551&set=a.232886830058459.76888.100000114311309&type=3&theater
This is one of the BEST DIY videos Ive ever seen of the ones Ive viewed. Complete, speeds up the nitty gritty operations, explains what is being done and source of components. WELL DONE!!
You're incredibly resourceful mate, this video was awesome. I don't think I'll ever attempt this myself, but it was very interesting to watch you do it
I want to know, Where is he from?
I need this
@AndroLoi There is no way a T6 led puts out 50000 lumens. It's a lie!
I was just going to type that because I have that one and a cree T6 1600 LM from gear best and the gear best is way brighter
That is honestly one of the most elegant DIY LED flashlights I've seen on RUclips. Only thing I would personally change is to sacrifice a small amount of overall length to give the cooling fan a bit more breathing room; I, personally, wouldn't feel comfortable having the circuitboards that close to the airflow of the fan, just from the standpoint of the fan not being able to move the maximum amount of air away from the heatsink. Gorgeous, though. Very well done.

What it needs is someone to strap an corsair h110 to that board and Watercool that bitch
I went to the 99 Cents store and bought four LED flashlights, tape them together into a round group and turn them one. $5 dollars project done in 1 minutes.
Pheap K you don’t realize how bright that led is

I have one word for you - GENIUS !!!
Dude - You are awesome. I love your construction quality. Thanks for showing how crafting should be done. Attention to detail makes your work flawless. Awesome!
You my friend, have a gift that far exceeds the wonderful flashlight you were kind enough to share. An instructional video that flows so smoothly, perfect sequencing, just the right stuff at the right time, never overdone. I've watched thousands of diy Videos and rarely have I seen one that caters so well to the watcher. Your ability to understand the observers perspective could easily be overlooked. Simply because you make it appear so easy. You may be a genius. Thank you.
great design and build .
thanks
you should sell these, I would buy one for my father - he needs something like this in India :) well done, friend. God bless
क्या reply मिला उनसे?
बेचते है क्या ऐसी टॉर्च
मुझे भी खरीदनी है।
मैं किसान हू।
Bro, you did it again. I posted on your other video about the battery pack. This is exactly what I want to do with my 500w project. My concern is the amount of heat it'll create. I love your layout. I was thinking about everything you added even before I watched your vid. This is so complete and well done. I'm subbing. You're the man.
Best design I've seen for one of these DIY High powered flash lights. Nice!
Nice job and very well presented -- thank you
The thermal paste was incorrectly applied though. It should be used WAAAY less, and you put a dot in the middle of the diode, not the heatsink, and then let the pressure flatten it out, which avoids trapping air bubbles.
Veeeery amazing, your level of electronic knowledge is impressive. suscribing...
I love seeing a well thought out quality build. Nice job.
Excellent construction techniques ! Your light looks as close to commercially produced as possible. Two thumbs UP ! Keep up the good work.
I think its cool if you can focus the beam
Looks like there's a lot of flood, but I cannot see any distance. Perhaps you should consider changing the projector lens so it can give some throws. Good one!
Applause for the clean fabrication
I really like your projects. You do a thorough job of making it not only function, but look nice as well! It's a pleasant change from the cheap looking junk a lot of DIY videos show.
Dude... realy great job!!!! I'll try this myself! How long without recharging?
PS: I DID SUBSCRIBED! You you earned for sure!
This is the best 100w led build I saw on RUclips. I love it and I want to have 1, but I do not have ability and skill like you. I hate myself.
+Calvin Nguyen "DIY Perks" have a better video in my opinion. he explain more and have all the links to the stuff in the video.
Great job! I love the way you worked out the mounting of the components.
Am I the only one that is in opinion ...this guy has some nice tools :)
Great project , great skills , well done :)
That is bright :D
Absolutely amazing ! Good job and perfect description.
Extremely helpful, perfectly integrated packaging!
Surefire needs to hire you...
Yes
Brilliant by the way... I would buy one.. LOL..
Surefire needs to fire you.
NO THERMAL PASTE!!
+JP và
Surefire needs to terminate you.
Cause you teach ppl how to DIY and they don't buy Surefire.
2:01 dielectric grease is needed to prolong the life of the LED - aids in transferring heat
+2Truth4Liberty later in video I added it;)
Well Done Tips
Yes, at 2:01 you added it - i was just filling in the WHY you added it
Good job!
Would thermal paste made for PC components work? Such as Arctic Cooling MX-4.
Topias Salakka
Anything - as long as it transfers heat fast (way faster than air) and -- stays in place.
Give him a sec, he put it on after fitting the led, about 45 seconds later...
Mr Perfectionist.............yes you are, very few people does things with such perfection
awesome project! quite inspiring and I will add a tripod mount under the flash light so I can set it at a certain angle
Extremely pro job, some paint and a face plate to hide the front connections and you could sell these things!!
Agreed, I'd like to have seen a finish faceplate covering the side area around the lens, perhaps doubling as a focus-plate with a second lens for tightening the beam.
I'd also like a 3-way power switch, 1w, 10w & 100w.

Why not use self tapping screws for the metalwork. Saves a lot of time tapping the metal parts.
Watching you guys make stuff like this impresses the hell out of me. Freaking geniuses
Very impressive build - well thought out, laid out & constructed! Well done, in fact!
how long it will run on those batteries and how do you charge them?
He's gotta learn somehow, bud
Wrong, if you don't know stuff you can't learn stuff. Everyone knows that.
Unerring 01 lol right. Everyone was born with everything they'll ever know
avin r Exactly.
guys, he is asking where exactly is the charging connector or if there is none, what is the exact procedure to charge them (i.e. open the assembly, take out the batteries etc.)
How charge? Maybe made internal auto charger
Outstanding, just love the way you assemble things nicely.
You are a genius. This video is amazing. You leave no stone unturned. I would pay for you to make me one of these. Congratulations!!
Here is a easy tip: use self-tapping screws. :D
what about mode selector? Like: Hi-mid-lo?
+Dmitry Lyashuk there is an option to install a dimmer and you'll have full brightness control. But at a moment - I don't need this option.
+Well Done Tips мужиг, ты кросавчег. Но мне кажется, им можно самолёты сбивать))
+Dmitry Lyashuk if you want a dimmer design look at "DIY Perks" video
How would you make a dimmer work with this driver. Im trying to put a light together using this driver.
there are led drivers with build in dimmers via a pot... they are widely available on eBay.. led driver dimmer... look that up... done...! no thanks Urr welcome!
I like this thing, it resembles the body of a shark, and the vent slits you cut out are the shark's gills. It just needs some jaws around the bulb and a tail on the end and you'll have yourself a shark light!
Perfect instructional, I am fully confident of my own ability to build this following your directions, although like many others I would make some modifications to suit my own needs, but that is the whole point of self built projects versus off the shelf, solid engineering, ingenuity in construction, too marks sir !
I would have tried to make the housing (metal, not PVC) as part of the heat-sink. A fan consumes power
Are you the guy who thinks lithium batteries can't power electric motors?
Great video, how long will the batteries last.
+k fro this my homemade 22.2V and 6Ah battery pack is able to power up flashlight for 2h.
+k fro setted to 3 amps the led the batery pack has 6Ah preatty much close to 2h, less led britenes then the maximum will it get more hours from these bateries
no overheating problem?
Very well thought out and a gifted Engineer. Heat paste looked to be zinc oxide based but I understand diamond based heat conducting paste conducts heat much better.
this is one of the best flashlight project l've ever seen on youtube!
All you need is a better way to focus the light. You're losing a lot around the periphery.
Yea put a refltor thing around it
What is the runtime on 1 charge of this flashlight?
+Tony Pachino Just read the rest of comments. 2h
+Tony Pachino he said "this my homemade 22.2V and 6Ah battery pack is able to power up flashlight for 2h."
+HelixThePegasus thank you i somehow skip that part
Tony Pachino actually it was about 2 comments below yours :P but no problem.
+HelixThePegasus the comments are sorted to fit your view, or language. He doesn't have the same pattern as you have
Looks awesome! I really like the pvc pipe idea for the housing! Great Job and Thanks! I'm thinking of doing something like this myself to make a few portable lights for video.
Very thoughtful,tidy job. Nice work! Thank you.
207 people that disliked don't know what PVC pipe is.

It’s really cool. Those people are just trolls.

How much did this cost to build?
+Sean Pain something around 22-23 eur (24-25 USD).
Well Done Tips can you make me one and send it to me in the US, how much it can cost me?
+simon del calvario 100 eur, 23eur materials cost, 77 job
+pierre jean You forgot shipping cost :D
+pierre jean You forgot shipping cost :D
Great video, and the best part for me was the heatshrink & the aluminum handle! Nice touch.
Scott x the same
Man, you very detalhist (like me), and result are amazing. Congrats.
Is there a website where I can order it?
+toysareforboys ebay.
I would rather buy one
Expensive and no fun making it.
this is 100w, you cant buy something like that (or oits very expensive)
these types of lights are not for edc, they are used as worklights or searchlights
not really, if you need worklight regular flashlights suck, they have really narrow angle while this can provide lot wider, also if you use this in forest its really great since you can see everything
yea i highly doubt you found a 100w flashlight a lot smaller than this for 15 bucks
Have fun paying $300...
wow not at all what i was expecting, it looks like something i would actually pay good money for, great work! your camera angles when doing intricate work was a nice touch, many videos just say "ok now solder it" and theyll just leave a wide angle shot while they work and not showing where theyre actually soldering etc
I love the design & great tutorial. Thank you.
Very detailed constructional video. The assembly is truly sturdy and easy to make. Congrats!!
The front lens is all open to wear and tear. A clear acrylic dome would be very protective.
Wow man I'm extremely impressed with your craftsmanship!
Dude you should honestly sell these.
This was made better than anything on wish.
A real nice light. Will make one this winter when I have nothing to do. Keep the videos coming too.
Wow this is such a clean build, taking time to make it look very nice I built one of these once with old rc batteries and just threw it into a small box with the led sticking out but it was nothing like this. You can frame this and leave it on your wall :)
Damn. You are such a precise worker. Very even and perfect measurements.
Great job, I am totally envious of your mad skills!
Much better than anything you could buy.
Impressive DIY project, lots of thought and great skills in assembly. Well done.
man!!! this is genius, well done and very professional.
The only other thing I would do is give the pipe a coat of black spray paint,just so everything matches,but awesome stuff mate,cheers from Australia.🇦🇺👍
surprisingly perfect electric work. very impressive.
amazing , u work like a factory , its not easy to be perfect at all these details , bravo
That is by far the coolest thing I've seen in along time and I've built n seen a lot of cool stuff I my life, that is one of the best. AWESOME JOB👍👏🏻🔦 Macgyver will be jealous
I really like that kind of projects.
I might try to do it. Thank you. I love it! You are the man!
Very good craftsmanship ! Way better than factory made. You didn't hold back on quality.
Nice project. You are one cleaver dude. Like the quality of your work as well.
Very very nice idea to put it in a PVC pipe.. Such a simple idea! :) Just a tip, when tapping, counter-rotate the tap every two turns to get rid of the stripped aluminium so your tap lasts longer.
That thing is awesome, great job dude!
Plz don't see any negative people comments and keep it up for all your positive subscriber...
I loved this torch...
Love from India...
Brilliant idea to build it all in a PVC pipe, and great video to show all the steps. It's inspired me to make one of my own now ;)
Self-tapping screws, great vid mate
Very professional build.
Great video! I would highly recommend using thermal silicone paste between the LED chip and the aluminum heat sink.
what a fantastically done piece
Great video, thanks for sharing! If only I had the time and patience to make my own!
Outstanding. Thanks for the build video.
Beautiful craftsmanship, I'd buy one too.
You sir are very talented! What a brilliant design!!!
It looks like it should belong on Peter Venkman's utility belt. Fantastic!
I'm really impressed!
So much well crafted creative work!
It is jaw-dropping strange that anyone could ever mark "thumb-down" for such perfect composed instruction movie as you did - but that is another story ;-)
Keep up this great work, I'm at least following you now.
Excellent project and video! Thanks for sharing!
Great quality build. Thx for sharing.
Great workmanship - looks neat.
You made me happy when you put the thermal paste on. I was about to die until then.
