Get an r2 now from cutter!
Be the first to put it in a novatac! Be the envy of all your friends.....

The 120P uses a SSC U bin LED(not Cree). When the SSC V bin comes out I'm sure people will be modding them then.

will the Q5 not fit with the reflector?

The Vf might be too high in the Q4-R2's for the Novatec since it's a single cell light. Meaning, you could put a Q5 in and it may be the same brightness as a P4, but you may get increased run times.

The Novatac would have to have a circuit designed to boost the voltage to power the higher Vf Cree's and I don't know if it currently can do that.
