Convoy L2...Guess who's back???

Hope he’ll have it as a host…

Is Simon going to give us a XP-L HI option?

Thanks for your efforts!

He said to me that (atleast) the first batch has a smooth reflector.
(Exact words where “just normal version for xml2 this batch”)
I’ll ask if he will sell it as a host.

I had a Convoy L2 back previously and if there is one thing I really hope Simon has changed it is the size of the driver cavity and I hope he has allowed for a 32mm MCPCB! They were a massive let down on the last light and just made it difficult to work with.

Nice. This light was only available for a short while after I started this "hobby" and for a while it was the one to get.

I got a MTG2 just waiting for a L2 as soon as Simon releases it.

As for the XHP70, Kai Domain has answered our prayers. I’m waiting on Kai Domain to get back with me with the price of this flashlight in a host form. Chuck the extension in to your parts bin and assemble this bad boy with the XHP70 with the tint of your choice and zener modded fet driver. When KD gets back with me, they’ll tell me what size the driver is. If it’s 26mm, RMM has got us covered.

He replied with:“will sell host”.
So it will eventually be available as a host.

Great news, thanks… This may just become a winner! Lets hope for the best :slight_smile:

I don’t have practical experience with the L2, but if I look at the size of the reflector one should hit 250kcd. I’m excited! I’ve been looking for for a bigger brother (26650) version of the Convoy C8. I’ve eventually settled on the Yezl Y3, which has the advantage of the side switch, but, I think the L2 might be a clean, good replacement for the Y3. I believe it will be more expensive though, but, the quality should also be better. I’m all for quality…

This thing is comparable in weight and size to the Jax X6 hunter.

Thats a really nice looking light! Is there a review somewhere of this light?
I hope they sell it as a host with a decent price so I can mod it myself with a XHP-70.

Looks like that light has a good quality, unfortunately way too expensive for a host…

This thread is going OT, as nice as that other light may be…

Anyone know how long it will be before the 2nd coming of the L2?

Thanks,

It took a month setup time for the Blue S2+

“t took a month setup time for the Blue S2+”

Yeah, and that’s just changing the Ano.

A total resurrection from the dead will take longer…

Any changes that will be made will make it even longer yet…

I just wasn’t into budget lights it’s first incarnation, so it wasn’t on my radar.

Looks to be a really nice light, but I do hope that it has some kind of upscale driver, not something like the S2+ has.

Thanks,
-Chuck

Based on what Simon told me I’d guess about a month before we hear or see anything on the new L2 but I asked him if he can give us an update. Any updated info I receive will be posted here. Based on what he said it is a new design so while I’m sure it will be similar to the old L2 this is a new design.

Whoever is in contact with Simon, could you please ask if he has revised the driver cavity and the size of the MCPCB it accepts??

Yes. I will. Contact with Simon is tricky but I will do my best and I will pass have passed on your question.

Well he’s not exactly giving out detailed drawings but “Simon says”

about the L2 flashlight
pcb size 20*1.6mm
driver size 17mm

:slight_smile:

I hope it does not have integrated charging… just complicates modding. I see many of the new lights from Simon has it.

+1 to the NO Charging!

I fear that, because of the unwashed masses this will be the wave of the future :frowning:

Thanks,
