Yeah, I ordered one too. I'm guessing the S/F mini host is a fake since host alone is 20 bucks on the S/F site. But I'll let Foy have the last word on that after he dissects his in public.
The price makes some sense in that I had just ordered a mini-p60 Ultrafire host, for about $5.
Did you notice the reviews? One said the dropin pulled 2.4A, the other said 1.2A Big spread, but worth the gamble.
For a Cr123-powered XM-L, I'll probably swap an XR-E from another light and use the KD XM-L in an 18650 light.
My first order from KD, hope it goes well. Do we get any discounts there?
It just so happens I have an L2m tube on the way from solarforce-sales as well. A T6 drop-in for $20 and a roll-the-dice Solarforce fake? Absolutely could not pass that up, especially since I just ordered the real thing not five minutes ago. Don't know where you live old but like it or not, the connection was real.
I got the L2M from solarforce and to be honest i wish i had bought the KD one, the finish isn't perfect ands the new tail tactical tail switch is horrible it's just too stiff for momentary use.
Thanks. I know I don't really need any more 16340 lights but I was thinking about getting one anyway, even if it's just for some spare lego parts and goofing around and this sort of pushed me over the edge. :)
You could also get just the L2m tube from solarforce-sales and use your other L2 compatible parts to turn it into a complete flashlight. It's currently just $7.99. It's too bad that they don't say if it's wide enough to take an 18650 if you add an extension tube.
