I bought one of these by mistake thinking it was something else. It seems to be well crafted, but I have not used it and dont know if I ever will.

nope, same brightness, just longer runtime.
Can the L4 handle 3 cell?

IIRC, KL1 works in full regulation at V around 4V. that means, once you go with 6V (2 123 input), you will not see noticeable increase in brightness if you change to 3 123 (9V). but of course, you get longer runtime

ALso, KL4 is not supposed to be run from 3 123. It is meant for 2 123, most are lucky it runs from 1 123. if you run your KL4 from 3 123, you risk your lux and/or the circuit to be burned down to death.

The KL4 also runs GREAT on a single rechargable CR123 and makes for a great EDC /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
