I just recieved this conversion head from my local PX for $48.98 in Black. The price will be slightly higher for civilians..(~$60)
This head is rather large and slightly heavy. Upon looking into the bezel, I am amazed at the precision of which the TIROS is built. The head is VERY ruged and looks really.. well... cool. I took it and immediately (10 feet outside the store) screwed her onto my G2 (which happens to be Olive drab) and compared her to my e1l.
You may think that this combo looks rather.. awkaward.. but the head fits and looks nicely on the body.(discounting coloration).
The G2/Kl3(new gen.) appears to have the same output as my e1l.. BUT the hotspot (which contain ALL of the light) is about a quarter the size of the e1l. The Kl3 also has very, very good throw.. (If you want a floodlight.. this is not your conversion head!)
This head is worth every penny, looks cool, has the throw I want, and appears to be really rugged. I LOVE IT!

Easily 5/5 rating!!! Can't expect anything worse from SUREFIRE!
