Ordered one gray 8*7135. Hope it gets here before 22 May!

edit - and does it now show the discount price on the regular web page for everyone now, or just those for who Simon adjusted the pricing? Wait - just checked on another browser that I never logged into AliExpress. Apparently the price has been lowered on the regular web page, no need to ask for an adjustment or paypal on the side.

Aghhhh, can’t stop thinking about S2 with 8*7135 and stock XM-L2 led. Just sent you a “gift” - $11.97. I guess I can trust you.

If you have a tracking number pls e-mail me it.

Oh, I forget to mention that I want it gray.

Anybody know what TIR would be a perfect fit replacement for this S2+?

I have the S2+ and an S3. They have the same size reflector, and it is much shallower than the reflector in the original S2. I put this TIR in my S2+:
leddna.com

The outer holder was just slightly too wide to fit in the head. I cut just the outermost part of the holder off. The rest of the holder still works as a cup, holding the TIR at proper focus. The result is a broad, even beam. The beam is noticeably brighter with the TIR than it was with the shallow reflector. The TIR allows very little spill. I greatly prefer the TIR over using the shallow reflector in this particular light.

Another thing to note about the S2+ is that it’s pill is taller than the pill in the S3 or original S2. It appears to be the same diameter and thread size as the pill in the original S2. The pill in the S3 is slightly smaller diameter.

If the S2 & S3 are pretty close, there was a thread by Comfychair where he modded an S3 with a 10 degree TIR here

I hope you post a thread about how that mod goes.

Scottyhazzard,

I need to take my S2+ apart to clean out dust behind the TIR, then reassemble it. I can take some pictures as I put it back together and post about the mod.

As far as the differences in the S2 and S3, since they have similar pill sizes and different reflector sizes, the S2 would require a spacer in order to use the TIR. Mountain Electronics sells a spacer for about $5.00 that should work. The S3 and the S2+ can use the TIR without needing a spacer. (I like the beam profiles of my two S2 lights with stock reflectors, so I don’t plan to change them to TIR.)

8x. You have medium and low for when you want to do something silly like use lower output.

Emitter tint is a matter of opinion. If you like cool white pick 1A (stock), if you like neutral try 3B/4C… warmer try the numbers higher up. I think most people favor the neutral to slightly warm tints (I personally love me some nice cool, pure white 1A).
