I just opened this drop-in and decided to look it over. It seems that this was a good idea.
I found a little solder whisker from GND to B+. I not sure where I got the drop-in, it just says “Super Bright R2”.
It is going to be used in my Streamlight Scorpion mod.

R2s make great throwers if driven hard enough, so snip the solder whisker off and be done with it
Does it work?

It does work now. I forgot to say that in the first post. I had it in a 6P and an L2m. You’re right it throws great.
I haven’t finished my Scorpion mod yet. It is in the lathe now to bore it 21.5mm and then I will thread the ID for a homemade screw in bezel.

Good thing you checked. That thing could have caused a dead short.
Glad it’s working!

Something would have gone poof! Either the solder whisker or the battery.
