Yay..according to a tech at Surefire, CREE will be available after June. The CREE KL1 heads will provide 5 more lumens for the single 123a and 15 more lumens for 2, both will run longer. Maybe old news, but I'm glad there is an upgrade path. |

Can buy replacement lamp assemblies made by CREE for your 6p/G2 size lights now for a fraction of the cost of a Surefire LED head. I ordered several for my aging collection of 6P flashlights and have no reason to believe that they won't be fantastic. Look here: --> CREE Lamp |
I just did a thread about these a few days ago.... www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.1447 12.50 no shiping.... so far mine is doing fantastic |
Yep-- I've been EDCing one for weeks. Love it. Will soon replace it with a Fenix, but these are still great lights for the money. |
It's interesting that they've decided to go for much longer run-time, rather than much higher brightness...Definitely not the tradeoff I'd make in a tactical light. |
