"Solarfoce Cree XML U2" from Kaidomain question

@kaknut

Invisiblejules,

I see you are in NYC. I am in Queens.

I bought my L2T from www.sbflashlights.com with coupon 5% off code: SBCPF

Got the host for $21.55, Texas to my house in 2 days with cheapest USPS shipping!

If you are in the USA stick with the US dealers for quicker service and an actual return policy that doesn't include shipping anything back to China. I think his price was only $1 or $2 more than solarforce-sales.com

Great host you will like it no matter where you buy it from.

It works out to $2.55 more, shipped. If you're only looking for an L2T host and you live in the USA then this is the route to go, imo. I'd gladly pay $2.55 more for a local seller, fast shipping and the peace of mind having local customer service. It's a no-brainer.

Hello Guys,

I'm from Brooklyn, NY and was thinking of ordering L2T body from solarforce-sales.com and 3-mode XML T6 drop in from MF (the one that runs at 3A)

http://www.manafont.com/product_info...42v-max-p-5178

I've also seen solarforce has a 3mode XML T6 drop in now but they rate higher run time 2.5hrs so that makes me think their current on High is lower than MF's.

Did anyone measure the current draw on the authentic solarforce XML T6 dropin?

Another question about the drivers in these two modules:

Does MF's dropin has a memory function, like solarforce's?

I would also like to order from one place and preferably local in US so if solarforce dropin turns out to pull good 3A then i can safely order from www.sbflashlights.com or lighthound.

If it pulls 2A or less i guess i'll have to order from MF and wait anyway.

Thanks for all the suggestions.

How can you get a fully finished L2 from Solarforce that TAILSTANDS without having to modify it ?

For my first XM-L light I might just get a really good one like this, but want it to tailstand out of the box.

How to order this way ?

The S9 or S11 switches can be bought separeately.

Both tailstands well.

Solarforce's tailswitches are actually pretty good. The ones that protrude are designed to protrude, and the ones that don't are designed with tailstanding in mind.

But I may want to buy the finished unit that tailstands-NOT spend more money on parts after the $33 for the L2 purchase.

I could swear I answered this very question on another thread: http://www.solarforce-sales.com/product_detail.php?t=LF&s=41&id=307

and http://www.solarforce-sales.com/product_detail.php?t=LF&s=41&id=161

I think there is a 5 mode tail standing edition also, just look on the site.

I can tell you that the U2 drop-in I got from Kaidomain was every bit as bright as the UF T6 from Manafont. See for yourself: https://budgetlightforum.com/t/-/2110

I liked the tint too and I paid a lot more than $10. If I remember right, U2s had not been available for very long . . . not sure.

Thanks- I want a 3 mode that will tailstand without having to buy an extra switch so I sent them an Email to see if the new L2 which is under $30 tailstands or they can supply it that way.

Thanks.
