Solarforce L2m with a KD coated glass lens. If you've had the light a while, the coated lens gives you something like two brightness bins increase in light output. Just cleaning the plain glass one gave something like a bin's worth of increased output.
Welcome back Don! Its a good thing that you brought along only a small portion of your flashlight collection, or else your car might have bottomed out from all the extra weight! There’s nothing better than being able to use flashlights out in the woods and away from the ambient city light. Its quite obvious that you had a lot of fun with them. Thanks for the great pics. The Manafont XM-L dropin sure puts out an unbelievable amount of light for a P60.
Huge thanks Don for the awesome shots. They really put into perspective how powerful some of those lights are, especially the xm-l's. This will be a very handy reference. Muchly appreciated:)
So while we're in the question asking phase of this thread , do you have the sku for the coated lens at KD? I'll owe you a beamshot with Texas coyotes in it.
Yes, that's the one. Fed with a single 18650. Pity it isn't 8.4V capable for use with 2 18650s for better runtime. It's put in a Uniquefire L2 (Solarforce L2 clone) or a Solarforce L2m. Wrapped with enough foil to make it difficult to shove the dropin into the head - I use the head threads to force the dropin into place.
wow after seeing the beamshots the kd looks depressing vs that manafont..Don what is your kd drawing on high? I know your manafont is 3.4a..just asking because my kd is drawing 3.2~3.3a with the cell I have in it..just wondering if they're drawing the same where the difference would be coming from? efficiency?
