Got a Solarforce flashlight? Maybe a Solarforce Collection? Show your Solarforce some love and charge it’s cells!
I have 13 Solarforce lights, in a variety of sizes and functions, from stock (mostly) to highly modified and completey beyond Solarforce’s scope of imagination. Today I pulled all of them off the shelves and am charging all the cells, making sure they’re in top working order and ready to go.
International Solarforce Charge Day? Ok, Maybe not, but hey it sounded good!
The S2200, interesting story… Solarforce announced it then went on Chinese New Year’s Holiday. I got my order in inside the 3 hour window of it’s announcement and was one of the very first to have this light in hand, Serial number 9 actually, and everyone that was wanting one had to wait for the Holiday to end. I got it the day my wife had surgery and was playing with it in the Hospital. It’s been power bumped, is one of the only lights I have that is equipped with protected cells (AW 2600mAh)
The M8, this one has been baked and Bucket made me a copper pill for it, adding a bit of length. It has the MT-G2 in it but is using an FET driver with Zener modification. It also has a Tofty switch in the tail.
I found the L2X relatively recently, ordered it from Australia actually. It has a quad copper pill in it and runs 2S2P on an FET driver Zener modified. Pretty potent little meat tenderizer it is!
Skyline I, the original pencil beam thrower. I played around with this one and ended up with a de-domed XP-E in it for tha sabre like feel. Not a lot of lumens, but with the really deep narrow reflector it sure puts the light down the middle!
The M3 head on an L2, I did a lot of things with this one over the years, it’s currently packing an XM-L2 U4 emitter with an FET driver.
K3 head on an L2 with extension tube, a motley assortment of Ledil lens and MT-G2 with FET Zener modified driver and polished SS crenelated tail cap from Solarforce. Really like how this one performs.
L2M shorty 18350 with a red XP-E2 emitter, the tail cap is off the Nitecore P30, the P30 got this ones SS winged tail cap.
The PD1 in Aluminum I got for my wife, it’s got an EDC P60 Pill that she likes the UI on and won’t let me change it. Only makes about 630 lumens through an XP-L emitter but she loves it so it’s had this same set-up for years now.
C2000 Carbon fiber 3x18650 has an XHP-70.2 in it, better hot spot and more power than it came with originally.
L2M with an AHorton aspheric and LEDEngin UV emitter, this is really a surprisingly powerful little UV light, running a 18350 Efest cell.
L2M with a tiny 15mm reflector and XP-G2, de-domed and running a power bumped 7135 chip driver, Qlite.
Blue L2P has a Nichia Hi CRI emitter with Solarforces wide angle add-on, it has 2 modes and issues a wide clear beam for close-up style work.
Gold L2P was initially the host for MattAus’s solid copper P60 pill and triple Nichia High CRI, but that pill went into my Texas Lumens Copper light, so it’s Hyperion UI went with it. This is now carrying a P60 drop-in with de-domed XM-L2 and bumped Qlite.
Solarforce was the main attraction when I got started here, the P60 format was golden and all the rage. When was the last time anyone bought a P60 drop-in? lol
Enjoy em! Have fun….
