Should this make it to production, would it be for the E1, E2, or both? I would love to upgrade my E1 with a Malkoff but will one cell give it enough juice?
New Malkoff E-Series Bezel ??

Depending on which drop-in you use you can use 1 or 2 cells. An M30 gives max brightness with 1 cell.

Oh, wow. I just ordered an E1E, for my first "real" incan light. If Mr. Malkoff could come up with something like an M30WF (or any M30, for that matter) for the E1-series, I'd be all over it. Heck, if he came out with an E-type M60, I'd go out and order an E2E or an older E20, too.
Think of the versatality we'd have for the E-series with Surefire and LF incan lamps, SureFire and TLS LED heads, and finally Malkoff heads/dropins! :thumbsup:

That's why I love the M30 :thumbsup: If Gene's new E-Series bezels does make into production I will have quite a few E-Series lights packin' M60's & M30's

Another vote for a drop in for the e2e
Hopefully it will lead to another sweet product we can buy from you. :twothumbs

This sounds great.
I've got an E2L waiting for one of these.
This bezel should fit an L1 too, right?

E and L bezels will interchange, but not tail caps.

Slightly more complicated than that. E-series bezel THREADS are L1 compatible, but E-bezels will not fit on L1 tubes due to a purpose built interferance inside. This is to prevent running regulated E-bezels on regulated L1 bodies. The L1 heads are "dumb" and the L1 driver is in the body. The interferance comes from the L1 tube being thicker than E-tubes on the Inner Diameter (ID). If you bore out an L1 and remove the driver, then E-bezels will fit. I had Milky do exactly that to one of mine and now it fits a 17500 (or 2x RCR2's) and any E-head including what I have on it right now... a Vital Gear F2 with a Malkoff M60W in it! :nana::nana::nana::nana: operating with the L1 2-stage tailcap for a low with extended run time :twothumbs
OH, wait, isn't that what this thread is about? :nana:

L1 heads will all fit any E-body, but of course you don't want to put a dumb direct drive L1 head on an E2 with two cells of any kind in it.

Thank you all for the info.
So I'm at least in for one Malkoff E-Series Bezel for my E2L.

If this happens, My surefire/Vital gear/milky legos will add another slash with malkoff's name! Id be in for 1 bezel and a M60!

OMG. My E1 and E2 bodies would have new lives! I would totally be in for one especially since my E2 body fits a 17670. I'm stoked and my wallet is in the upright and locked position! Btw, does anyone actually have evidence or communication that this is really happening?
