Fenix L2P Question

[lumen64]

I just got my L2P and L2T flashlights the other day.
I have no problems with my L2T but I have a question about my L2P: the difference between the hi and low setting seems almost negligible, especially compared to the L2T.
Is this normal?

I thought the L2P was out of production. Or at least not sold anymore at Fenix store.

The L2P, with a Luxeon I, had no high or low. The L2P V2.0, also Luxeon, had a high and low.

My question is how you got the L2P(not V2.0) from Fenix store and why.

...the difference between the hi and low setting seems almost negligible, especially compared to the L2P...

AFAI can see, it's still alive and ticking on their website.

I know the V2.0 is available, still a great light for what is it.

Has anyone done a Seoul mod?

If the difference between Low and High is that little, you might want to send the light back for a replacement or a refund.

The L2P, with a Luxeon III, had no high or low. The L2P V2.0, also Luxeon III, had a high and low.

em erm....the original L2P uses a "R bin 1 watt LED"

It was a great light in it's day(and still is, compared to the other lights you could buy at the store). I bet many are still using theirs despite the newer LEDs appearing.

Edited, thanks for correcting my mistake.

I have an old L2P (actually 2 - one with a 2AA body, one with a custom 123 body), works good but I'd like to replace the LED in it with a CREE or SSC P4. BUT, there is a lot of what looks like epoxy preventing me from disassembling the heads. Will the reflector work with a replacement LED? Any ideas like boiling or solvents?
Thanks,
Rob

I put a Seoul in my flupic'ed L1P. I must say it works great! I didn't even have to modify the reflector. Just remember to use a spacer between the LED and the pill.
