I got my SureFire PKEF too!!!

[WAVE_PARTICLE]

So how does the Total Light Output of your PKEF3B-5K and U2 comapre with you HD45 XX1T?

All subjective of course:


Total Light Output
U2 > HD45 XX1T > PKEF (U2 and HD45 very close)


Throw
HD45 XX1T > PKEF > U2 (PKEF and U2 very close)


Keep in mind, I don't have my HD45 anymore .

Great pictures indeed.

Very nice and expensive collection... now all you need is the missing link to the XTN M6... the battery. Me too.

The clicky tailcap on the PKEF looks totally different than the one on the U2. Has it broken yet? -_- Maybe it's a new and improved model!

That's a very special clicky you are talking about there. It's a two-stage momentary for the secondary light functions (red/blue/low-white - controlled by variable selector ring- and high-white momentary if you depress further) and click-on for constant high-white. It also acts as a twisty if you want to engage the secondary light functions (red/blue/low-white) with the constant-on click.

Pretty advanced, huh?

After a manual and Google search this looks like the thread to post. My -A arrived today, and the switch action is interesting. With the tail cap bottomed-out:

Light press: red or green LEDS depending on ring setting. (momentary)
Press harder: red or green plus the 5W. (momentary)
Press harder and "click:" colered LEDs plus 5W latched on.
Click again: everybody off.

Here's where it gets interesting. Back the tailcap off one turn:

Light press: colored LEDs depending on front ring setting- red or green. (momentary)
Press harder: colored LEDs plus 5W. (momentary like above)
Press harder and "click:" just the colored LEDs on.
Click again: everybody off.

Back-off the tailcap another 1/4 turn:

Light press: colored LEDs. (momentary)
Press harder: "click," and sustained color LEDs. (No 5W)
Click again: Off.

Backing the tail cap off a full two turns from solid:

Lockout.

Eeenteresting.

Yep! Love mine. Switch is easy to manipulate once you get over that learning curve.

You have a Super Ultra Great collection. Comments on the 27LT?? Nice Surefires

Edit: The "plot" thickens further! Someone at the Phoenix get-together pointed out that the forward, LED selector ring has three positions. (Center off.) With the colored LEDs turned off:

Tailcap all the way on:

Light press: 5W low beam.
Press harder: 5w hi beam.
Click: Hi beam sustained.

With the tailcap backed out ~270 deg:

Light press: 5W low beam.
Click: Low beam sustained.

At 180deg from solid:

Light press: 5W lo beam
Press harder: 5W hi beam.
Click: Low beam sustained.

Who needs a steenkin microcontroller!

Wave_Particle, I'm going to have to report you to the authorities. There's no way that torchporn like that could be legal.

OK, I'm adding a PKEF to my wishlist along with the porky L6. Wow. WP, quite a collection there. Absolutely stunning!

 

[petrev]

Great Stuff WP

Great new addition - Great Photos - Makes me want one even more - Hmmm

Great M6-XTN - actually didn't spot it was an XTN at first - yours is a really good match and I'm so used to mine now I can't remember what a stubby looks like. See you chose the tail-most position for your lanyard ring - found mine again and quite like the mid body-XTN position at the moment.

Anyway back to the subject - Luvvin the PKEF
