Recomendations needed for a small XM-L.

I used and abused a Yezl X1 XP-G for the past year and a half at work. It is starting to flicker and it’s time for a new light.

The new light has to be the same small, thin shape with a constant diameter just like the Yezl to fit into a holster I use. It has to be an XM-L, have 3 modes with memory. I know there is an XM-L Yezl X1 with 3 modes and memory, but the problem I have with the Yezl is it would change levels with hit or even just tapped. And also, the spring is very weak.

Here is a link to the Yezl so you know the size/shape the light has to be.

Yezl X1

Any recommendations are appreciated.

Roche F12 from here, or here

Lovely floody light, but only problem might be using the cells you already have - some protected won’t fit. I ended up with unprotected Sanyo 2600.

All are small w/ multiple modes and well made.

I love my Ultrafire V6
Its got decent heat-sinking and mine runs at at least 3A. The reflector comes off exposing the led for pure flood mode if you like that kind of thing making it an inch smaller.

There’s an S-mini for sale by a BLF member.

here is a thread about a nice setup that E1320 built and is thinking of doing another group buy/custom build for his loyal followers

The UF 2100 is small and is a nice light!

Exactly what I was going to suggest as well.

Shriker,

The UF V6 is very similar to the TF model that Dave sells over at customlites.com except his comes w/ a heavy brass pill and uses an XPG emitter. Nice HA III finish, I’m thinking of getting at least one for EDC. It’s simple enough to swap in an XML or Nichia 219 [my current plan].
