I have a solarforce L2N host with stainless steel clip and on order a satinless steel cranealated bezel , right now for a drop in I am using Lightmalls aXML2-U2 drop in module with. Op reflector its fairly bright but now I have developed a tolerance for it now I am jonse-ing and looking for more output I think my budget would be about 25.00-30.00 $ for a decent one and iam thinking I would like it a flooder since it's my edc and wouldn use it if I had to look under hood of.car or look for a dropped to at nightthanks In Advanced

That’s more or less the max brightness you can get from a drop in, without spending more money on the drop-in than the host itself.

From what I see from post 39 here, it’s driven at 2.6A. You can go direct drive, but you won’t see much difference because 2.6A in a P60 drop in is quite a lot of light.

For more options, check out Vinz’ custom drop in’s: Vinz Custom P60 Modules: Quad XP-G and Triple 219

Pretty much every OP P60 is going to have the same flood with the same emitter. In your price range, probably your best bet would be to get the Solarforce XM-L2 U2 emitter P60 and then use some type of diffuser like 3M Diffuser Film to increase the flood. To get more flood than that, you would have to go with something like a triple emitter P60 with a TIR optic like the EDC+ X60L3 or the Oveready/Torchlab drop in or get a modder like Vinz or cmacclel to make you one, however, they are nowhere near the $25-$30 price range.

This Int-l Outdoor P60 drop-in is another good option.

That vinz custom is something I'd like but waaaaay outta my price range , I guess German made emitters are like their optic counterparts the best quality but expensive!! Only a few canafford the elite class of lights and optics I think the intenational outdoors are going to be more in my price range thanks for the input it is truly valued!
