Bezel for Aspherical Maglite.

[Ottawa411]

I purchased an Aspherical Maglite from Ledean that I am in love with. One change I would like to make is to buy a nice bezel to go with it and protect the lens better. I'm not sure of the exact style I am looking for, but I am somewhat limited as to what I can pay for it. Does anyone have any ideas of what might be available that isn't too extravagant?

I'm also interested. Kiu has sold out of all his aluminium ones but apparently is having more made in the near future...

Thanks for the tip, I will keep my eyes open.

Kiu's bezels are to short for the Aspherical lenses.

Is there any bezels that aren't too short? I've only ever seen Kiu's bezels being sold.

I have a Mag with a 50 x 35 mm aspheric installed and the Kiu Bezel fits perfect, I can put it head down and the top of the glass is still about 2 mm from touching the surface.

Here is proof!

Something about that looks familiar...

Glad to see you are putting it to good use.

The 50mm fits fine, but the 52mm sticks out about 1 mm. Too bad for standing bezel side down. However, it WILL protect the lens if you drop it, unless you drop it perfectly flat, which would be rare. I know, I dropped mine on concrete from about 5 feet on the bezel, and it only scruffed up the tailcap. No damage to the Lens, or Bezel.
