Right. I got those drivers in the mail… but they were the old version. Oops. Slight communication fail. So I haven’t tested a new version yet.
The silver-anodized S2+ is nice though, with XP-L HI and a smooth reflector for more throw. I need to get myself a stronger tool to unscrew its driver retaining ring, since it’s so tight it makes my machinist calipers bend.
You can find some beam comparison here in this gallery of my S2+
I tried XM-L2 with SMO reflector and XP-L with OP and SMO. And XP-L HI with OP and SMO.
Ooo, purdy! :laughing: Stock XM-L2 with smooth reflector seems like a really sweet deal for me; for sure, it’s throwier than my S2 w/ OP reflector.
Well that’s a crying shame… Banggood sells hosts and functional ones with the old blinky drive, if you’re still interested. I have a 3x7135 right here by my side that I love to pieces.
Well shoot. I know 2x 18350 will work (or in my case 2x 16340 because that’s what I have), I was hoping to increase battery capacity though, since 2x 18350 is less than even 1x 18650. I wonder if I can open up the driver opening for one of the H1-A 20mm boost drivers.
