As headline asks.

got my old Kl1 apart nice enough..:twothumbs

now what..?

cree...?

whats gonna boost it...?

change the board?

Thanks...!
 
Just change the emmiter to an SSC, or if you have the guts wait for the new K2's to arrive and fit one in..You might want to change the optic to a McR20 also..

+1.....The cree does not fit into the old LED location....without modification. A Seoul or K2 will fit, and the use of an Mcr20 or Mcr20s will help. A new driver board could up the output..

The 20 fits exact or will I have to "fit" it...?

And hey,

If it's a Gen. 1 then a Cree will fit. I modded my gen.1 last week with a seoul. I was thinking of doing a cree instead and using a different driver.

Keep us updated on what you do with this.

It will be interesting to see a gen.1 with the ribbed removed
