Replacing the L1T v2.0

Looks like it's offered in two different LED's. Do you know if either is HCRI and/or warm tinted?

I swapped the LED for a 519a.

The warm is a 219c…which is HCRI. The other LED is an XP-L, which isn’t.

A nice aspect of the light is you can turn it on from the rotary or the tailswitch.
The coolest part of the light is you can get repeatedly get down to .01 lumen...which isn't useful but hey it's there.

Cool, I figured that about the XP-L. Why did you do the swap to the 519a and how do you like it?

Only bc that’s my hobby.
I’m actually fine with any non super-warm LED.

I put together some 1700k lights…so I have several choices but I seem to leave the warm stuff at home unless it’s for outside use.


I used a 6500k XP-L in an AA/14500 light I built yesterday…it’s very nice.

This is a plain 1.5v. I’m pretty sure it works with 1.2v too

I picked up an extension and it works fine on an Eneloop. Thanks!
