Flashdark,
I think you'll need to explain how the KL5 fits on the L1 & L2 bodies please.

Thanks all. I do have an L2 as my primary EDC, but would like to use rechargeables. Ah well, since I have some Pilas on the way for my 9V flashlights, I can just swap out the extra CR123s and feed it.. and my L5, and my U2.. and... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/icon3.gif

The L2 bezel will fit on an E2e or L4 body, but will underdrive the Luxeon V emitter. Replace the emitter with a suitable Luxeon III emitter and direct drive it off of a Pila 168S and you get a scorchin' little light!

Underdrive the Luxeon V? Why would that be. I thought the electronics were all in the bezel and the tail cap? Basically I just need a new body tube that could accept a 168s or 168a. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/huh2.gif

I did this for a while too....while waiting for my U2... using a the famous Doug Speck E2C converter
Worked very well, but was way too long for EDC...
Better is to put an Aleph tailcap on an L4 body I think...
In fact, I'm thinking of going Aleph22ohm+L4body+E2C+KL5 as an alternative to my U2... given that I'm a bit disappointed with the low level output and the degree of throw...

The L2 bezel has only the LED in it. The converters for the L2 are located in the body, that is why it is so much longer than the L4. So if you use a L2 bezel on an E2e the batteries will be direct driving the emitter.

So in that configuration, is the body's reg circuit being used or the heads? The L2 is a dummy head. Nothing inside. Putting it on a L4 body direct drives it

THE same thing is the case for the L1. The LED is in the head and the power regulator is in the body.
