Help Finding Multiple (5?) Level Surefire Tailcap

[smcharchan]

I read about the subject item in a post a couple weeks ago here on CPF, but I can't seem to find it here or via Google. Can someone point me toward it? Better yet, can someone who owns one comment on it? Thanks!

It's the Lightsaver Miser.

does anyone make one for C2 or M2 ?

 

[PaulHsu]

Maybe a better question would be is there any other company that makes an aftermarket cap like this?

 

[Paul_in_Maryland]

G&P makes a Surefire-compatible tailcap that adds strobing. But it doesn't provide additional levels of steady output.

And then there's the Pila Codex...

I would think it would fit the C2 or the M2 as both are the same size as a SF 6P.

I would think it would fit the C2 or the M2 as both are the same size as a SF 6P.

Thats what I thought too- but the description oddly doesn't mention c2 or m2 but lots of others.

So you are saying you think 6P and M2 tailcaps are interchangable?

 

[depusm12]

Yes they are interchangeable.

They are interchangable.

Im looking on the surefire site about Z49 Z59 Z58 Z48 and its making me more confused.

Do they all have a standard end cap and length is the difference?

6Ps can take a Z49 and Z59 but not Z48 or Z58
M2 can take Z49 Z48 Z58 but no Z59

So they are partially interchangable?

:shrug::thinking:

 

[matthewdanger]

Any tailcap that the 6P can take can be used on the M2.

 

[PaulHsu]

Thanks bro - so you you think the lightsaver miser would fit an M2 as well?

 

[matthewdanger]

Absolutely. In fact, thanks to this post I am thinking about purchasing a couple of these. Streamlight makes something similar for the SL-20/SL-35. I have one and it is pretty handy.

 

[smcharchan]

Just want to thank everyone for their help. Does anyone have a spec/data sheet on this? I'm wondering what it uses to control the levels (PWM?) and if/how well they are regulated. -SMC
