    Streamlight TL-2?

    I don't recall such tower module that only output ~350lm back then. I do own the initial release model back in 2016, with a 1.5A buck driver and already advertised at ~800lm, if I remember correctly. This very copy however does not focus well inside the (incan) Scopion's head assy and cannot...

    Streamlight TL-2?

    Does the Scorpion use the same incan bulb socket as on the TL-2? If so then the focusing mechanism should be the same. However when you slap in an LF LED tower upgrade (as mentioned on my post earlier) then the entire focusing mechanism becomes void and unusable.

    Streamlight TL-2?

    Do you mean this upgrade? https://www.lumensfactory.com/en/product_detail.php?pid=380 I've used earlier batches of this one and they work great. I don't have TL-2 (incan), only Scorpion (incan), but results should be the same.

    Surefire 9P late batch (new logo) -- to HAIII or not?

    I originally didn't like the newer-logoed SF bodies either, which prompted me to consider the HAIII redo, also knowing that the newer batch has metal substrate that allows for a better Hard Clear shading finish. In the end I abandoned the HAIII redo on this 9P in question, not only because the...

    Do you use the Mini-Maglite butt cap lanyard hole?

    Can you please clarify which Stremlight Jr you own? Is that the older one with a Kroll-like (J1052) switch, and can you post pics on that tail switch? And are you saying that this very switch does NOT fit into the incan MagAA at all?

    The SureFire 6PX/G2X Tactical and 6PX/G2X Pro Thread

    Can't depend on SF CS these days, as in recent years they have a tendency to deprecate older model support, as parts run out. And even if SF could replace the tailcap in question, we would end up with another otherwise fine tailcap (short of a good boot) destined for shredding and such. What a...

    The SureFire 6PX/G2X Tactical and 6PX/G2X Pro Thread

    First of all, which tool did you purchase for such disassembly? Is it the three-prong tool from LF, or something else? If indeed you have the LF tool concerned, then it's probably the tailcap disassembly approach/skill that gets in the way. Have you tried heating up the G2X tailcap (eg. heat...

    Kroll switch question (Judco J1052 vs. Streamlight 715007)

    To describe a MagAA being "hot wired" can be confusing. Some had, in the past achieved high-power incandescent mods within the MagAA system. I didn't remember much of the detail regarding such real "hot wiring" mod but I doubt any of those tail switch options (including the J1052) could...

    Kroll switch question (Judco J1052 vs. Streamlight 715007)

    I seem to recall that the NiteIze switch also didn't yield good fitment on the MagAA's tail side. The same issue also goes to Terralux's tailcap as well; I bought some new ones years ago but realized they didn't fit onto just any MagAA body. So those switches had to be returned. And since...

    Maglite

    And who modded this 3D setup? Icarus or someone else?

    Kroll switch question (Judco J1052 vs. Streamlight 715007)

    No it's NOT. This is the NiteIze switch I was referring to, the one that yields decreased overall output (even at high setting) due to increased internal resistance etc. within the tailcap chassis. Fun to novices and other budget users, not quite so to higher-end MagAA modders.

    Kroll switch question (Judco J1052 vs. Streamlight 715007)

    There are a few online vendors that sell the Kroll J1052-inspred Streamlight switch, albeit in limited quantities. New ST Jr. users won't care about them as the newer ST Jr. has a completely reworked tail thread/switch config which refrains totally from the Kroll setup. The ones I spotted on...

    Kroll switch question (Judco J1052 vs. Streamlight 715007)

    I checked the product lineup from Litt's site. Definitely not very impressive. The only two things that I may be interested in, are the crenellated bezel rings and the "metal" reflector for the MagAA upgrade. However, the latter is not available as a separate item, plus I don't know how well...

    Kroll switch question (Judco J1052 vs. Streamlight 715007)

    I didn't mean to be snippy. Maybe a tinge too critical instead. So yes I get it he was trying to help, but he didn't seem to get my point, and yes, he went way too over.
