In my quest for as nearly perfect a 2 x AA light as possible, I stumbled on the Javelin. It appears to have just the combination of throw, size, levels, and battery type I'm looking for! 
However, I have become infected with the light quality of the SSC P4 natural white hi-CRI LED! (having built one into a ROV Sportsman Extreme 1W).
is anyone aware of a Javelin mod using an SSC hi-CRI P4? I know on high it would overdrive the LED by 200mA. Could that possibly be more of a problem with the hi-CRI phosphors than it would be for a "normal-CRI" LED? (I certainly didn't worry about it with my DBS V3 XR-E!)
Also, which reflector (XP-G or XR-E) would be best to try? XR-E seems more likely to fit, but the reflector itself may be less ideal to the LED radiation pattern?
Alternatively, are there any SSC P4 - P60 dropins available that would be similar to the 3-stage Javelin dropin and run on 2 x AA? Doesn't have to be a hi-CRI P4; I could always mod it :laughing:
Thanks in advance!
