Re: New Surefire LED lights at SHOT

yeah, you'd think with all this time they could get more out of it.....

Actually I was thinking 'not bad at all' ......... if its regulated in some way to put out 120lumens for 2hrs

the way the current A2 is regulated to go full bore for 1hr (and still leave juice for the LEDs)

Re: New Surefire LED lights at SHOT

In the 2008 catalog there were no specs in the back for the E1e, is it the same for this catalog? I really hope they don't discontinue the E1e. Does anyone know if they are planning on this?

Probably - as nice a package as the E1E is, the performance just doesn't match the E1L or E1B.

I don't see the E1E in the catolog.

is it 2 hrs regulated or 2 hrs to battery depletion? I was thinking it was depletion since that's how all their other lights are rated.

Sounds like an E2DL with A2 style switching and a floody low. I can dig it.

Re: New Surefire LED lights at SHOT

If I remember correctly, we did not have even catalog photos until after the show last year. CPF ought to fund, or partially fund, someone to go to the show, get a catalog and then post photos. That would be their job.

Re: New Surefire LED lights at SHOT

I just can't believe there are no pics yet. I really want to see the M3L and M3TL. I wonder if they did anything to the M4, like an M4L....

Maybe this thread should be stickied, at least temporarily.

So much news and info, or at least potential info in the air... and I will be out of town and disconnected?!?

Why... I'm going to die from information starvation. Or it will be like overfeeding a starving man.

That's what I was thinking, but maybe also that it has less efficient Neutral or warm SSC's since it is replacing the nearly iconic A2 incan. Might be another reason for separate LEDs.

It seemed like weeks waiting for photos last year.
