Lens filter needed

[filedog]

I have a solarforce light, I believe it's this one:

it has the crenelated "strike" bezel
I need a lens filter, red or blue...
Is there one i can use with this bezel, or am I better off just trading the light?

Solarforce sells a filter pack. Solarforce store has them, however I cannot comment on their effectiveness with an LED because I havent recieved mine yet.

Thanks for the link, I have been looking as well,
mostly found new lenses (which would work)
but I want a "cap" type, for easy switching.
Do you know if these are a replacement lens, or cap?

They are a replacement for the standard glass.

To fit the filter, you have to unscrew the bezel, take out the old glass + 'o' rings and refit the new filter with 'o' rings in the same sequence. Takes a couple of minutes *.

The filters in the pack that I have are slightly thicker than the actual cover glass, so the bezel doesn't screw back quite as tight.

I, too, would prefer a filter that can be capped over the end of the bezel. I did wonder if one of the Surefire ones would fit - until I realised that would cost more than the light itself !
