I would appreciate anyone who can help me determine how to give my L4 two stages. Just didn't want to pocket the L2.
Thanks,
Jeff.

I think SureFire has the resources ($) to make the L4 two-stage instead of needing the L2 size increase. I don't know why they don't do it.

Long John said:Efficient or not, it reduces light output and gains runtime.
If the resistor is in the right relation to the consumption, there is absolutely no problem with this method.
