Yes I do. Can supply the complete light or just the light head. I cannot ship batteries international though.

Here is my latest creation. It still gives a wicked hot spot but also a fair amount of spill.

Its much the same as my previous can light builds with a couple of changes.
Battery pack 9x18650 2500ma 3P3S
3 XR-E LEDs using aspheric lenses and a MC-E using a reflector
Driver is a Kaidomain 2.8 amp driver running the XR-Es all in parallel and the MC-E seriesed to the XR-E's. Power consumption is about 21 watt.
Switch is a magnet and reed controlling a MOSFET.

For reference is a quad XR-E aspheric running at 10 watt.

The pics dont really do the light justice as you cant really see the true amount of side spill.

Bad news is I will never dive with this light, at least not in the short term. Its been made for a diver 800km's away.

Im unsure of weight. I guess its about the same as most can lights of similar size. Cost is dependant on what specs you want it built to. Eg led's and batteries. One like above will be about $1350 inc gst, battery,charger,goodman handle and shipping nz
wide.
