Re: when will Malkoff update their dropins?
I know that there is only so much room inside the M60 heatsink for a reflector, but I hope that Gene does not make the diameter of the reflector so small because of the MD2 and VME heads that it will punish most Surefire host users. What would be the point of a reflectored M60 with a tiny reflector inside a SF 6P? Maybe Gene should consider two versions of the new drop ins, one maximized for his own hosts, and the other finely tuned for SF P60 style hosts.

From an email from Gene : Expect to see some M61 XP-G prototypes begin to trickle out in 2-3 weeks. :twothumbs

Re: when will Malkoff update their dropins?
What do you mean by prototypes? As in working but not 100% final product.

Here's the full email for those who didn't receive it :
Hello All,
As most of you may know or suspect, Malkoff Devices is updating the current M60 models to the Cree XP-G LED. In anticipation of this we are liquidating some overstock items. We currently have the M60LL and M60LF on sale for $39.00 USD. When the current stock is gone, it is gone.
Expect to see some M61 XP-G prototypes begin to trickle out in 2-3 weeks. I don't have any specs for these yet. Expect them to be brighter and more efficient than the current M60's. Have a Great Day!
Thanks, Gene

Re: when will Malkoff update their dropins?
Awww, MAN! I just bought two drop-ins this month (M60W, M30W)! Now I have to scrape together some more cash to buy something new and brighter?
Gene, you're an evil, evil man!
But in a good way.:thumbsup:

Re: when will Malkoff update their dropins?
I can handle an XP-G R5 M61, but man I don't know what I will do when he releases the XP-G Wildcat:mecry:
This will be my downfall for sure, now just hoping my wallet can handle it.

Not brighter, but more efficient.
If I recall the M61 prototype is said to turn-on at 300ish OTF, but knowing Gene he will likely advertise the warmed up reading a couple mintues later. He does this for his MD4 wildcat and I rather have the warm OTF numbers:thumbsup:

I like that he's calling them the M61. :thumbsup: So appropriate.

Did he mention whether or not he would have multi-mode versions that would work in SF lights?

Re: when will Malkoff update their dropins?
Apologies for my lack of knowledge here, but will a M60L work in the little twisty with primaries and if so roughly what brightness and runtime could I expect? I ask as the M60L currently in my 6P host will need another home when Gene releases these! Thanks
