SureFire EB1 Backup 200 Lumen Flashlight

Omitted- distracting OT post.

:Scratches head:

Let's get back to the EB1, hey guys?

 

[scout24]

Only 'cuz you asked nicely... Other than the obvious bezel differences, can anyone school me in the differences between the EB1 head and the E1D head? SF specs the high runtime as the same, but the E1D shows seven more hours runtime on low. Plus, it has the coolest SF tailcap since the SW01... Love the older design shrouded SF tails!

Somebody please tell us that the 300 lumen EB1 will come out with the two stage(press lightly for low, harder for high) switch as well.

Re: The SureFire EB1 Backup 200 Lumen Flashlight

Well, would have been nice to have one to buy with the extra cash.

BrightGuy has the current model on sale. Sure sign new one is coming. Nice deal if you want the 200 lumen model.

holy, the clicky black Eb1 has dropped in price a lot on amazon, pretty sweet deal for the 200lum version (around $111 now). Tempted to pick up another

I'm confused about the switches on the new one; they used to have two options, one with two levels that you had to click twice and another with the older, momentary-and-twist-for-constant. Is that gone now?

The new model not out yet is a clicky but the tactical model could follow. No way to know. The bew clicky isn't even at the dealers yet.

Has anyone noticed on sf's website, when you click accessories/led conversions, the 200l TIR ke1a is gone? Has me wondering if there will be a similarly upgraded 300l single-cell, single-mode led conversion. Unless I have a filter on or something I can't find, that's taking out everything else.

Looks like you can no longer replace the tailcap and get single high mode eb1 as with original version.

Sorry to bump this from the last page, but am tempted by the current pricing & just want to make sure I understand correctly- no single mode version of this one or e1d, and the dual mode is all in the head now right? You can't swap the tailcap and get a single mode eb1 like some were doing much earlier in this thread?

Wouldn't someone have to own one and try it to answer? Are the new eb1 even available for purchase?

yes, and no (I'm asking about the current version that's on sale now).

200 lumen or 300 lumen model?

Re: The SureFire EB1 Backup 200 Lumen Flashlight

Anyone get their hands on the 300 lumen model yet?

Curious to see if it can take 4.2V like the E1DL.

Re: The SureFire EB1 Backup 200 Lumen Flashlight

It seems only SF's website has the 300 lumens one. I'm trying to get one but no dealers have them. Maybe we'll have more info after SHot Show.

Are we sure they even exist? I haven't seen any reviews.

Re: The SureFire EB1 Backup 200 Lumen Flashlight

If it does come to fruition, I for one would like to see the tactical tailcap. Push a little for a little light, push a lot for a lot of light. My absolute favorite. I may be in the minority however. Time will tell.

I agree 100% In fact if it doesn't it is unlikely I will buy one unless throw is totally kick @%%

I have the EB1 backup with the clicky tailcap. I want to get a momentary/twist cap for it. Anyone know where I can get one?
