A few years ago, Illumn ran a giveaway on r/flashlight. I unexpectedly won! It was a Tool AA 2.0 copper with SST-20 4000K. I liked the light a lot, but of course a year or so later, 519As came out. I recently started modding thanks to @stavigoodbye@lemmy.world and GetKong’s reddit posts and ordered some 519As from Simon. I decided the Tool AA would be an excellent first candidate. Came out great! Thank you so much, folks!
Yeah, these are awesome, also modded one after I accidentally killed the sst-20. I reflowed a 219B SW30. Amazing and warm.
I was looking for those orange peel reflectors in that size to mod some more normal Tool AAs, but haven’t found any yet.
That is one gorgeous light.
I swapped the OP reflector from the Illumn AA into another TI AA with 519a DD. Now my Cu has a SST-20 2700K that I have lying around, with a SMO reflector. I also have a black Alu AA with 219b with a TIR, no glass though.
