subject: Sky Ray S-r5 Flashlight Body Tube Gray [ P60 Host ] [print this page] I ordered a Sky Ray body from Lightake , http://www.lightake.com/detail.do/sku.SKY_RAY_S_R5_Flashlight_Body_Tube_Gray_-29782 Link .
The body arrived today , and it is a darn nice looking body and the first thing that hit my eye was the anodizing , I really like it . The second thing to hit my eye was the orange tail clicky rubber cap , it looks a little out of place , a black one would have been so much better . [ Not a deal breaker ]
The machining is very nice , and everything appears to be nicely done , and the tail clicky is no slouch , and is very nice and positive to use . The fit between the parts is a little generous when say compared to a Solarforce , but is right about the same as say Ultrafire . Now this is no real big deal as everything screws together very smoothly , and the Orings seem to be doing there job well , and once everything is tightened up , its as solid as any other light out there .
If you click on the link , you will see the price for the body , and thats a nice price .
I put a Solarforce 5 mode 4.2v [ Purple ] drop in , in this light [ XR-E R2 ] , and Im using 18650's .
I tried the Xtar18700 , Trusfire Red & Black , Ultrafire 2400 Grey , and a few others , in the body and no problems , they all fit just fine .
The pill fit with a little room to spare , so I did the Al-foil trick [ wrap al-foil around the pill to tighten the fit for better heatsinking ] .
Overall Im very happy with the Sky Ray body , and for the price , its a very nice deal , so if you have some spare pills floating around , you might want to give a Sky Ray S-R5 body some consideration .
