G2L + Malkoff P60LL

[dko3tgk]

I just bought one of the closeout M60LF and the gap on my aluminum head G2 was alot more than any of the pictures I've seen on CPF. Its about 4-5mm. Way too much for my liking, that space can collect alot of dirt and sand. Plus while it still may have the o-ring protecting the head, I feel better without a huge gap in the seam letting water in constantly.

But then I tried it in an older all nitrolon G2 with nitrolon head, and it screws down almost all the way. the seam has a tiny hairline gap on one side because it isn't seated perfectly even. I guess its staying in this body.

Maybe on my next one I'll consider grinding it down.

You might be interested in this graphing, see post 111. At least you can see the different runtimes for the Malkoff M60LL and comparison with SF's P60L. https://www.candlepowerforums.com/threads/216438&page=3

I read somewhere that P60LL is much brighter with G2 than with 6P, but can't find the thread now. Anyone who can comment/explain that?

That would be surprising. Are you sure you don't mean the G3 vs. 6P comparison shown in the chart linked above?

 

[etc]

M60LL:
3x123 = brighter but shorter runtime.
2x123 = less lumens, greater runtime.

Great module that plays with the most configurations of any Malkoff module:

1x18650, 2x18650, 3x123, 2x123, 2xAA, 1x123 and so on.

Could not have said it better myself. Spot on.

It's possible I earlier mixed G2 and G3. Now I know that it's the same with G2 and 6P. It has to be when it's same batteries and same LED-device. I also found that M60LL was brighter in 9P.

I noticed that a M60LL used in SF bezels with plastic windows don't have any gap but those with glass do, or rather this has been the case for me.

My experience is opposite of yours.

I EDC a G2Z with Malkoff M60LL and use a 6P Defender with Malkoff M61 as a weapon light. Both have the Pyrex window and neither have any gap.

Only have pics of the G2Z
