I have a question for Atomic_Chicken: Say I have this friend for whom I bought a used A2, and he likes your Aviatrix idea, but he'd like to have a ring with red, blue, and green LEDs, one of which would be on in the first stage, and all three of which would be on in the second stage, providing white light with more rendition across the specturm than a normal white LED. How well would this work? Oh great A2 master, work your magic!

People like woodrow, for example...might not be too happy:nana:

I bought an A2 in Iraq either 10 or 8 years ago, I can't remember what deployment it was, and I had no idea what a great light it was or what community I just bought into. I'm new to this community though, debated calling the A2 a light or a torch; like a Navy guy correcting you calling a ship a boat, so I,m looking forward to learning more.

Welcome to CPF and terminology is a bit of a task when dealing with flashlights. The A2 is for me, just like yourself, is a excellent tool. The Lumens Factory bulb upgrade is a nice option if the 50 lumen incandescent isn't bright enough. BTW it isn't for me. I like the red LED's myself but a recent green LED purchase has made me rethink that preference. Since you already own a Surefire your well on the road to being an addict. Don't fight it. Collecting is normal. Glad to see you back from the sand box. John
