Not for me except for the first one. Even when I click on the photo and actually to go photobucket, it doesn't display for me.

Thanks tobrien and Mattaus for letting me know the photos are visible now. :thumbsup:

I think original was a LuxIII but the light was modded already with a Seoul P4. :)

Awesome, what exactly does the mod do compared to the original? The reason I ask is because I bought the Gladius when it was first released (years ago) and it sits in a box because it never worked right. When I turn it on, it blinks every so many seconds and I was told it's normal.

From the Gladius documentation:

If the batteries run low, the intelligent power management system will signal the operator of this condition by double flashing rapidly every 15 seconds until batteries are replaced with new batteries.

The light is, thanks to the new LED, just brigther than before.

The XP-G2 should also make the light more efficient, and thus increase run time. At the ~1A drive current, a Seoul P4 Vf is probably about 3.3V (assuming one of the lower Vf bins like H bin). An XP-G2's Vf is probably 3.0V, or about 10% lower power consumption.

Right, forgot to mention that. :thumbsup:

no problem man! oh it was originally one of those older emitters? You did such a great job modding your light that I swear it looks like it came that way from the factory :D
