Hello everyone
I pre ordered a customized L6 : SMO reflector, dedomed led (colour ~5000k) , thicker copper plate for the led, double springs for better batts contact.
In stock version throw is around 57000cd, in SMO version with dedomed led ~970000cd with a better (for me) colour ~5000k.
Should be interesting 
What do you mean you “ordered” it? Who offers those services?
With all those mods I hope they add an R100 resistor to bump up the output.
What batteries will you be running? Double springs might not work with protected cells.
Is a dealer from my area (Romania) which I have relation from many years (I have lights which are modified by him, example Olight M22 dedomed) .
I will use Keeppower IMR 5200mAh .
3000+ lumens in this configuration I would say that is more than ok (for me) , led is not at the limit, output is decent.
Is just a matter of money (light is ready to be sent ) , I will keep posting after I get the light
I just upgraded my L6 from the stock XHP70 N4 1A 6500K to a new XHP70.2 P2 1D 6000K and loving the tint. Still on the edge of cool white with a little bit of natural sunlight tint. I went camping and took the L6 out for a test run. The L6 lit up a lake all the way to the other side into the trees! Amazing! I have a question. I’m having a hard time trying to get the actual lumens per mode switch listings. All I can find is current draw. Does anyone have the lumens per mode info? Thanks.
Measuring lumens requires a calibrated integrating sphere for good accuracy. A few guys here have homemade versions of those devices but I don’t think anybody has fully mapped out the output to lumens ratio yet.
Theoretically, the 70.2 should put out the same lumens at the same amp draw as the earlier 70. In your case, you’ve got a slightly higher bin number so you should expect that if the amp draw is the same as the old emitter, the new one’s output should be a little bit higher. I could be wrong, though.
A rough estimate of lumen output can be done with a ceiling bounce test if you have a lux meter. You would need to set up a specific location on a table then set the Lux meter at a specific location right near the flashlight. Shine the light straight up and measure the output on all four modes with each emitter. Since we know the lumens of each mode with the stock emitter, we can estimate the new lumen amount based on that.
Thanks for the info. I do not have a lux meter unfortunately. I’ve heard numbers like 3500 on turbo, others 3800. I’m going to guess the 70.2 I have will push it to either 3800 or 4100.
That sounds about right. The real advantage of the 70.2 is that it doesn’t stop at 12 or so amps like the xhp70, it can keep going up to 18 amps! That’s where you get your 7,000 and 8,000 lumen from.
I would recommend adding a resistor and get good unprotected batteries as well. This gave me 2 extra amps and a matching bump in brightness over the protected Keeppowers.
Oh yeah, I picked up my LX1330b Lux meter for about $30 on ebay. It’s very cool to have.
I meant to dig up my records on a stock L6 and forgot to do it. Sorry. Will see if I can locate the lists today.
My black L6 has a zener modified FET driver with ramping firmware and a higher-than-stock binned emitter. It’s pulling right at 12A for some 7200 lumens.
If I recall correctly, the last L6 I got in silver color was making around 3800 in stock trim, it now has an MT-G2 in it. Still though, I’ve got lists of amps and lumens from each level written down somewhere (posted here as well if such could be found)
The Convoy L6 really is a sweet deal of a light, especially with so many easy ways to change up beam profile and tint and easy power level mods. Will have to get a couple of these 70.2’s coming and maybe I’ll be ready to rock some changes by the time they get here. 
Thank you Jason and DBC. I agree the L6 is a beast of a light. I equally like it as much as my Acebeam K40M. I may just keep the L6 stock as I feel it’s bright enough for now. I am going to assume one of the added benefit to the new 70.2 is cooler temps on turbo,stock, correct? I’ve never been able to test it with the new swap yet. Mabey tonight fireworks won’t be the only thing lighting up the sky. 
Happy 4th everyone!
Cooler temps on turbo. Hmmm. It doesn’t seem likely. I don’t know really. They seem more efficient when used with a buck or boost driver.
I think if you adjusted your turbo amp draw lower so the the lumen output matched the xhp70, then it would run cooler for sure.
My guess is the heat will be the same, but you get the extra lumen output.
The 70.2 is still pretty new and I haven’t seen a good amp/lumen output graph yet.
With the buck driver the light should be more efficient (make less heat) at the same current with the 70.2. The lower Vf means lower input wattage with the same (or greater) lumen output.
In theory, yes, remains to be borne out in a light…
Well there won’t be a big difference in heat, probably less than 10% difference (ratio of Vf of the two emitters).
Been away for awhile. Did the shorter body ever get made for the L6?
has anyone using 18650s on their L6, i just ordered mine. The only 26650 i have is from imalent DN70 but i have plenty of high drain 18650s. Can the spring make contact with smaller diameter of 18650? I just printed a battery sleeve to fit the 2x18650. The light is not yet in my hand so maybe someone can share some infos?
I dont see why they should not work, the springs are in the center of the flashlight and the tips are not any bigger then usual.
Just make sure the batteries are not longer then 70mm each.
Nice use of your 3d printer I need to get my printer working again…
what is the short tube use for? does it work with single 18650?
Thank you, i will be using a non-protected 18650s if that is okay with L6.
Yeah 3D printer they are usefull arent they
No the stock L6 will not work with only one cell.
The short tube is for people that mod in different drivers/emitters. Or have a couple of 26350 cells to put in
Yeah non protected cells should be around 65mm long, it is the protected ones that are close to 70mm.
Just be aware that using cells in series should be done with care. Make sure they are the same capacity and at the same voltage level when you use them.
I am not the best at this subject so i hope someone that can explain better does that
Thanks for the link! Can you recommend a 23650 protected cell for them?
