I can make you a kick ass 2.8amp turbo XRE it will knock your socks off.
Heres Foys test
Thought I would share some quick thoughts after using E's incredible XR-E drop-in. I'll either do a formal review later or maybe just add some beam shots to this thread but I must say; this damn thing is the XR-E to beat all XR-E's.
In my trusty, old version silver L2 with a protected Solarforce 18650/2400, I measured 2.73 amps on high, .74 on medium and .10 on low.
It is brighter than my new 8.4 volt XM-L from Solarforce and it spanks every R5 I have. And, since XR-E's are the surface brigh…
and another with some measurements
Hi there,
I didn't want to just drop this post at the end of the p60 dropin sales thread. Erik made me a nice XRE Cool White - 5 mode with a smooth reflector. I really love it. I took some lux readings on it to compare it to some other lights I had laying around. All readings were made with a cheap MASTECH meter, indoors, at 2 meters. As such, I don't really know what they mean but I thought they would at least give a good ratio.

Send me a PM if are interested if not try Deerelight
I don’t mean to spam myself but no one else has these new XREs that draw 2.8 amps for sale, they are absolutely mind blowing.

I’ve been informed by someone that has an inside line to Solarforce that the MPP1 heads are no longer being produced so you should get one now while they are still in the distribution channels. When they’re gone you’ll be left buying used.
Thanks I will have to take a look at them. Will that damage the drop in being driven so hard?

No but it will damage your vision if you look at the beam when it’s on high.
It seams there was lots of concerns over a year ago about the Ultrafire 980l pulling 5 amps on high and they are all still going strong with many other over driven lights added to the list since then as well.
Good point, how much do you get for them? What is some info on them? Thanks again…

Hi Erik,
Is it possible for you to mod a masterpiece pro 1 with the overdriven xre?

Erik, PM sent. I’m going to build exactly that: an MPP1 with an XR-E driven at 2.5A.
