    L2 Digital Lumamax, Surefires forgotten one...

    I have read numerous threads on the specs of this light, and all are cautious about twin rechargeables, but very few has ever reported trying. All in the name of science I just had to try... I am currently running my L2 on two AW RCR123, and it´s doing well so far.

    L2 Digital Lumamax, Surefires forgotten one...

    Thanks! I have seen that review, but it doesn´t mention voltage or possibilities to use RCR.

    L2 Digital Lumamax, Surefires forgotten one...

    I have just bought an old L2 Lumamax in perfect condition. The light is nice, but I would like to have some info on specs. The sad part is that Surefire doesn´t list it as a discontinued item, and all info is on the new Lx2... Does anyone have a clue on maximum voltage for this light? Is it...

    Using Epoxy to stick the Cree Q5

    I think you are right, and I was talking about glueing a star. The emitter must be soldered if high currents are to be used.

    Using Epoxy to stick the Cree Q5

    I have made a few Maglites running XR-Es at around 1A with nothing other than regular epoxy holding them down... works for me.

    Quick n' Easy Aspheric Lens Setup for Maglites... Need some throw?

    OK, I thought of the lens... If you are using a LED on a mount that sits about 6mm below the edge of the flashlight body you will have about the right focus for this lens. If you want to assemble the lens inside the original bezel, just cut the rim off the original reflector, to act as a small...

    Quick n' Easy Aspheric Lens Setup for Maglites... Need some throw?

    I did an aspheric maglite with this lens yesterday, and it seems to be acceptable in quality. Thats a good thing since DX cheap lenses seems to have gone down the drain in terms of optical quality.

    Sleeve and Spacer to run a Solarforce L2 with 3xAA

    Isn´t the AAA-holders in series... that would make it impossible to just wrap something around them to make the wobble go away. You need connectors to be within the spacers to give 3,6V Or have you lengthened the tube enough to take the AAA´s in a single column?

    Modding Surefire 6p/ L2p host

    The first light is a Novatac... thats pretty far from a P60-host :ooo: And the second is some form of tritium-based light. The second might be doable if you make a base that fits in the rear of the bezel of your light, then apply tritium and some form of lens. The first one is pretty difficult...

    What to do with a Solitaire?

    Thats probably because it´s the most logical thing to do... toss it in the bin and get a great reason to buy another light :naughty:

    Any good Surefire C-series to Maglite adapters?

    I was thinking more along the lines of Mag to P-series. And if possible with an integral heatsink for LEDs
