I've been going nuts here at CPF trying to absorb all the information on the KL5 and U2 that I can. But I recently looked at my KL3 head and thought - I wonder if I can upgrade the LED inside that instead. I did a heat test on it by leaving it on for at least an hour the other day to see if it got too hot if on long. It only got a little warm. I wonder if a slightly more powerful LED assembly would be possible. It uses a Luxeon III that puts out 30+ lumens, according to Surefire tech support. If you look up into it, you see four screws holding the LED assembly in. You would have to remove the head - to - body connection first however. But once the 4 screws are removed, the assembly should drop right out.
Has anyone opened one up? Do you think a 45-ish lumen LED (preferable a nice high-bin version) could take its place?
