I don't own a P60, looking to get a Solarforce to remedy that.

I personally have that strike bezel and this particular one DOES NOT obstruct the beam at all.

This is the one I have, and the next one I plan to get is the same thing in grey: http://www.solarforceflashlight-sales.com/product_detail.php?t=FB&s=7&id=418

I'm happy with the MF drop-in as it's very bright cool white and a good throw/flood combo, that and the reverse clicky are great for cycling. One of E's or the IO version will be my next drop-in. I love the 5 mode in the UF2100 that Erik built up.

i looked at a few SF links here and most of them weren't clear if the drop-in is included or not. if you already have a p60 pill and are still waiting for any host, here's one to keep you busy while you wait.

$4 for a complete xenon 501b. www.ebay.com/itm/261026706159. at time of this post he has 15 left. as fleabay deals go, this one will be gone in a blink. add a $5 xre p60 pill, and you have a $9 complete swappable backup for the solarforce. i don't know anything about this seller, just posting a good deal. :)

Listing already removed. Must have been a hot deal!

EDIT: Now back at $3.99!

Been thinking about getting this. Maybe something to look in to. IIRC, these are also current controlled.

For $29 complete, you might want to consider the Blaze at Shinigbeam

More than 10 available / 38 sold :expressionless: Check history (click on “38 sold”) and you will see that the first light was sold “May-31-12 20:35:51 PDT”.

As for SF - all links here are body/hosts only (without drop-ins).

EDIT: 40 bucks for Nichia drop-in? Those spring and pill must be made of gold :bigsmile:

I have some Nichia 219s, the same drivers and the same reflectors except mine are $30 shipped and you have more mode choices.

I have one in my beside light L2M with a 2 amp 5 mode 1 lumen low and a forward clicky for sneaking to the bathroom at night without waking up my girl. I have another in an AA host as my EDC have been testing for a while. It is really impressive how much more the colors show up with one of these, the only thing that comes close in color rendition is the 7B XMLs I have.

And ordered.

Yeeeaaahhh :stuck_out_tongue: Tell us what you think (once received, of course :bigsmile: )

They’re like Lays potato chips; “you can’t stop at just one!” You could build a substantial collection of just SolarForce L2 series lights and variants/ accessories. BTW, the Nichia 219 drop-ins that Dave [NailBender] sells are top notch and worth every $$ spent.

congrats!

Only Cree LEDs for me.

I build the exact same drop ins as Dave(nailbender) same driver, same emitter, same reflector, plus I offer more mode options for $10 dollars less. I don’t see why you would spend the extra money for an identical product with less mode options.

I know this is going to sound like I'm waving the flag for a friend but for the life of me, I can't understand paying more for a Nailbender. Erik, maybe you need to double your prices and don't offer any custom choices. Perhaps then your drop-in will be worthy for the moneyed few.

I know I am going with E instead of Nailbender.

Don't get me wrong, I love the ErikFire E2100 and would gladly purchase another. But for my cycling lights, I would prefer less modes. 3 is good, 2 would be ideal. I need a bright high, a true medium (40-50%) and a Low (10-25%). Having to cycle through modes while riding is a pain, which is why a 2 mode would probably be the best.

My Solarforce lights make great cycling lights, especially on the helmet, fairly small form factor and good throw with the MF 3 Mode drop in. I would love an E1320 version for my SF lights but just don't want the 5 modes.

Are you sure he doesn’t make 3 mode drop ins?

That’s what my custom builds are all about. I make single mode, a couple different 2 mode options, a couple different 3 mode options and a couple different 5 mode options. Send me a PM and I am sure I can make you the perfect light.

Well Erik, I'm glad I made the comment then! Looks like you have 2 new customers. After the mini is sold, I'm going for a new L2P and I will definitely get another of your customs. Thanks for clarifying.
