Uniquefire L2 XP-G R5

Thats not the one that i ordered......i bought the open design with no flap. Its the same one that comes with the C3.

I have the small and medium Ultrafire holsters from DX. I use the small one for AA lights

and the medium one for my Ultrafire 504B.

I can recommend them both. Very nice and cheap.

I also have military style Molle holsters and they are exellent, but pricy.

The one that i use for the D10 which have served well for edc use is still in the same holster that i got from DX......you cant beat the price and it has held up for over 2 years now.

Gotta link Al?

Which one....the UF holster from Kai is nice and holds the light well.......

the one for the D10

Sorry bud i cant seem to find it now.....the other one that i like over at DX seems to be gone as well.

I've been looking at the Uniquefire L2 XP-G R5 flashlights on DX for a while now. Does anyone who own these also own a Solarforce L2? Is the Uniquefire L2 thread compatible with the Solarforce L2?

I know of other members use Solarforce tailcaps on theres......I have a buddy that that switches bits around and the only thing not changeable is the bezel.

That's interesting, because the Solarforce L2 clone made by Ultrafire (forgot what model it is), isn't thread compatible with Solarforce. I was thinking since this is another one of those SomethingFire brands, they would do the same stupid thing and not make the parts thread compatible with other brands. It doesn't surprise me the bezel isn't compatible though because it seems every company makes their bezels different from the original design of the Surefire 6P. The only 2 china brands that make their flashlights fully thread compatible with the Surefire C/P format are Fire-Kylin and Xeno. Both those brands are higher quality (like Fenix, Jetbeam, Olight quality level) and so their pricing is up more.

I cant say for sure though.....looking for the read on cpf now so bear with me.

Yeah I am aware of SpiderFire's Solarforce L2 clone and it's actually pretty good as I have a couple of those myself as well. With SpiderFire, they kept the Head, Body and Tailcap thread compatible with Solarforce, but not the bezel. Not Sure why they did that either. So I guess we're not really sure if the UniqueFire L2 is compatible or not. Thanks for trying though. I guess we'll have to wait for someone else to chime in here about it.

I know Don is getting one and he has a bunch of SF- SolarForce- not to be confused with SureFire....lol. I pretty much like my L2m's and plan on getting another down the road.

Don can you please chime in on whether these Uniquefires are Surefire C/P thread compatible?

They are. I got a forward clicky for the Solarforce but find it unusable for my purposes so routinely swap out the tailcaps with an Ultrafire/Uniquefire one. The heads are interchangeable too.

I used a silver Ultrafire WF-504B (Which is identical in every respect to the Uniquefire/Ultrafire L2) just to make the swapping more apparent.

Wow, I guess this goes to show that Ultrafire does indeed have their flashlights made by different factories. I ordered an Ultrafire WF-504B when they first came out from DX and I was not able to swap interchange parts with my Solarforce L2 and Surefire 6P flashlights, so I simply assumed Ultrafire decided to do different threads. Don, are the Ultrafire and Uniquefire compatible on the bezel part? That's one area we all know can't be interchanged with Solarforce and Surefires. I tried putting a Solarforce bezel on a Spiderfire Head and it didn't fit either. So I'm curious what the Ultrafire and Uniquefire flashlights do on the bezel part.

Greetings Ace! Don't think I've welcomed you yet. Please do feel free to join in - we've all gut stuff to learn from each other.

The bezels are interchangeable with Solarforce - here's a Uniquefire L2 with the annoying spiky bezel from a Solarforce L2. The tool below is a watch opening tool that I had to use to get the bezel ring out of there. It wasn't glued, but King Kong's big brother had tightened it down in there.

I have just checked and the bezel rings from my WF-504B lights are also interchangeable - the one from the Uniquefire is now in the Ultrafire head and vice versa.

The Uniquefire R5 bezel is not interchangeable, it has a slightly wider head. I'd guess it is a pretty exact copy of the Seraph so probably is bezel interchangeable with that.

Neither is the bezel from the Ultrafire WF-503B or the WF-502B (The 502 doesn't have a bezel ring as such)

Seems like I read that Solarforce bezels are not Surefire compatible? So these other bezels wouldn't be either?
