Just got the link from them and ordered last night. Is being shipped today. Not sure what model Cree, but they said it was good to 80+ lumens. Price is about $40. hopefully this isn't old news...

Which series surefires do these fit?

 

[zx7dave]

It is going in my C2, they said it will fit 6P, C2, G2 and similiar. Nothing for the E models yet...but I bug them weekly
If you are in doubt read thier website before you order or email them. They have pretty good response time.

Wow, it seems like these are starting to pop up everywhere. At last count, this is the 3rd Cree-based LA for the 6P,C2 and G2s. Keep them coming! Thanks for the inform.

Damn it I wish you guys would'nt post things like this I really can't spend any more money.

EDIT:

It's a P4 Cree.

The spec's state that it's driven at 750ma. Seems the output would be about 130 lumens, more or less. I like that it can be driven with 2 li-ions.

Do let us know how it fares...okay

could get a g2 + the drop in = high lumens for 70-80 bucks!!

Maybe the 80 lumens are OTF-lumens instead of led-lumens?

Im rather sure Surefire always advertises OTF (and thus, real lumens) instead of led/bulb-lumens, like most other manufacters.
So i think Wolf-Eyes followed Surefires course..

will it work for A2?

 

[highorder]

does anyone make a drop in that is driven harder?

 

[Spydie]

Just ordered one myself and am hoping to try it out on my Maxfire.

 

[dizzy]

Looks very promising indeed. I can't wait to here how you like it.

It must have a good regulator circuit to be able to handle 3.7-9 volts. Very versatile, could be used in many different lights.

Is that the XR-E or the SSC-P4?

 

[kwando]

great! time to spend more $$

 

[kbrd]

Will this work work in a G2Z Nitrolon?

 

[Monolith]

Is that the XR-E or the SSC-P4?

Cree XR-E

 

[zx7dave]

Kbrd - It should. I have found when I used a few of the replacement dropin's with G models I had to wrap the bulb base with aluminum foil to assist in making contact in the right places. Might call Lighthound to verify.

Maybe more like 170 lumens?
