Got my U2 back last night and I'm very happy with the result. Beam has the same spill but with much more neutral tint. The power ring works as designed. Never had any of my lights modded before but I highly recommended it!

The beam looks really nice. Looks like a really cool modded U2, and most important it stil works like the original U2. :twothumbs:twothumbs

Is that XPL, Mebiuspower?
Looks like close to or more than 500 lumens, if the older one for comparison is 140 lumens.

Yes it's the XPL vs. the LuxV (100 lumens).
I am very tempted to buy the UM2 
(haven't bought any flashlight for years). Can anyone provide realistic runtimes on rechargeable batteries vs primary batteries? Are 16340 the best option here? (I want to be able to use the highest setting). Also a bit offtopic - but what's the best brand for 16340? Thanks.

Glad it made the trip!
Very nice picture Daniel', I'm tempted by this UM2.

What tailcap is that?

Selector ring with distinct modes makes way more sense the infinitely variable - for the sole purpose of a predictable runtime (with ininitely variable, a *little* more brightness dialed up can cost you a decent amount of runtime and you wouldn't even know it) - Wish this wasn't so huge
BTW: I'm assuming this is a XML light?

Do we know w/ certainty that this light has been discontinued? I see that it's still on SF's website.

There exist 800 units, currently at ArmsUnlimited ~500 are left. You can check it if you place an order of i.e. 800 lights. The shop will adjust the number of lights to the max. available lights. There is no address input or login neccesary to test this.
At all I assume the stock will last till mid of 2018. But since the UM2 is a great light if you wait too long you will waste a lot of lifetime without an UM2

Recently, it looks like Arms Unlimited is selling 1-2 per week; and I think they have about 506 units left. At this rate, I have time to save up to buy it for my birthday next March. I'll be 50, and this light would be Flag$hip light in my collection...

How's the UM2 compare to the UB3T in use? I have an older UB3T and a very early U2 and killing two birds with one stone would be nice if it could keep up with the 3T's range.

There were two UB3T 800 lumens verson, with narrow and wider optics. The UB3T with narrow optics has definately a larger beam distance.

DOH! Just looked at it at Arms Unlimited. They dropped the price another $45!
Does anyone know that the UM2 stands for, particularly the UM part?
