These have just appeared on the solarforce-sales site.


P1D is an alloy version of the P1 with a fat, 27mm body, HAIII and comes in black and grey.

L2N is an L2 with a body with finger grooves and a fluted tailcap and in black and grey.

Both nice looking lights and both have flush bezels that won't swallow up a heap of spill.

Thanks for the heads up. The L2N looks like a solid host, basically a L2 with finger groove grips and a different tailcap. The P1d however is confusing:confused:. Looks pretty much like a P1 but completely made of HAIII aluminum. I like the P1 due to its use of GFRP material (see full review here). Now if they would only fix the heatsinking issue of the P1.... oh wait they sort of just did with the P1d except no GFRP material:shrug:.
 
+1 on the L2N, looks great and if it's as nice as the previous L2 series it's a bargain. The P1D IMO is the answer to the heatsinking issue as LK points out in the previous post. I wonder if the P1D is lego-able w/ L2 tailcaps and bezels and vice versa?

Cannot, as you can see the dimension:

L2N = 136 x 32 x 25.4
P1D = 136 x 34 x 27

P1D is a little bit fatter and the website didn't mention of accessories such as bezels and tailcaps.
 
Just ordered a black L2N.

With an M3 turbohead.....

Too good a deal to pass up. :D
 
Interesting. Certainly I love the Solarforce lights, but being so close to other ones they already have, I wonder why they came out with these? Guess it's all in the eye of the beholder haha. Hmm, to get one or not lol.....

On the Solarforcesales webpage for the P1D it does specifically say "The head assembly is replaceable and compatible with relevant Solarforce accessories" and while I'm not sure I like the finger grooves in the L2N...I do like the tailcap style.
 
Here's my L2N.

Box is a new design.

I do like that about the P1 also. I ended up going with the L2N though it looks nice and cant beat the price.

Here is a pic of the grey. I just wish they made them in HAIII : / but overall, I like the design as much as the L2T. Very solid with no battery rattle using Xtar 2600.
