X3 is one sweet flashlight.

Can you provide some details about the drop in's LK?
Will they work with a pair of those Eagtacs? Will it still have a beam that throws like it was shot from a bazooka?
That sorts stuff...

Drop ins are custom made, copper pills, XP-L LED's, fully potted, and very bright! (Still in progress, with supply chain issues) The recommended battery setup is 2 x 16500 or 2 x 17500 (Double A size, AA sized batteries, with wider bodies). I am currently sourcing the best value in these. The EAGTAC 17650 batts are too long, as they were made to replace 2x 16340, or 2 x CR123's.

Of course the PentagonLight X3 with XP-L drop in, (or incan Xenon) works well on three primary CR123 batteries!

Are you able to quote a price on the X3 drop-ins so we can prepare?

Sounds great.
Thanks for the info.
Sounds versatile in that a pair of 50mm's or 3 primaries will work. Looking forward to these.

lightknot -- Will these drop ins you are fabricating be single mode or will there be other options available on them?

So far, plans are for straight tactical 100% only. We will possibly explore mode options in the future

I'd be in for one light when the drop-ins are available.
Always been a fan of the pentagon light look.

Supply chain issues finally resolved. XP-L drop ins should be available next Friday.
We will post specs and prices as the drop ins become available in the upcoming week.
