I picked up an L2 on the Marketplace, which I haven't even received yet. However, if I decided to mod the led, what would be a good choice? I see that the MC-E is/was a popular mod. Would the new XML be viable with the L2's driver?

[h=1]I was wondering the same thing.[/h] [h=1]I have an old L2 and was wondering how a XM-L would work in it by just swapping the old led for the new one? I was wondering if anyone had any idea how the beam would look and if changing the resistor in the tail would cause any complications?[/h] [h=1]Any ideas???[/h]

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but, my understanding is that the LuxV L2 and KL4s drive the emitter at 6V (2S2P). I'm sure that you would blow an XM-L doing this. I haven't tried it on the few KL4s that I have.
