I did a pretty crappy job documenting the process — but I did manage to snap one “in progress” pic. Essentially, I just used my Dremel to chop down the sleeve and interior shaft to the desired size, sanded down any roughness, and reassembled. I made sure that the interior shaft was a little longer than the sleeve. Had to snap the leads in half. I wanted final length to roughly match an Olight O’pen Mini, and got damn close.

Been thinking about doing this for a while.

It was… surprisingly easy.
Pretty happy with the results!
Looks great!
Nice work.
