The ebay seller (ITC Shop) is sending me some O rings for free and they said they are throwing in a glass lens they said is worth $5, which I thought was very nice of them. I'd still like to know what size O rings fit since I think it would be good to have some extras on hand. I'll probably order some from DX once I know the right size.

I am very impressed with the overall quality of the L2P. Seems like a real bargain to me for $20.85 shipped. I'm tempted to get one in gray in addition to the black.

On another subject, I wish Lighthound had the 18650 extension part in stock as their price on that part is very reasonable and I would like to try running the light with two 18650's. For now I'm going to have to be satisfied with trying it with 2 18350's (unprotected) (ordered from KD).

^^ I've ordered several lights from ITC and the 1st two had broken o-rings. I replaced them and sold them because they had a shorter tailcap that I couldn't use with a ring. I ordered two more a few months later and confirmed through email that they had the correct tailcap ones in stock. It took 5 weeks for them to arrive. They answered all my pre-order emails within a day but took about 5-6 days to answer my few post-order emails.

My little Solarforce: :naughty:

I emailed that pic from the sales thread along with my pics to Lighthound, and John states that they both look like genuine Solarforce as they've changed their tailcaps quite a bit

So you people are saying the flat metal with the lines cut into it knurling is much much more common than the more pointed diamond knurling? I have a gunmetal L2 18650, and my favorite thing about it is the knurling. So that was just a trial run? :(

L2M with L2-S3 tailcap & L2P with L2-DF diffuser.

The diffuser looks nice, is it glass or plastic and what holds it on? I also prefer the flat SS bezels.

It's a plactic. I got this from sbflashlights. Same size as the lens but twice the thickness. Smooth on one side and corse on the other. On my eyes, it makes 180 degrees of pure flood light on my flat bezel. Very nice when i'm working on something upclose.

That would actually be pretty useful as a nightstand light as well. It'll lower the output to not kill night vision, but it will light up an entire area on high modes.

As soon as it's back from the shop and I can borrow my roommate's phone camera. Having a heatsink made for it :thumbsup:

Don: Thanks for the pics, it appears to be on top of the SS flat bezel. Is that correct and if so what holds it on to the light?

No, its not on the top of the bezel. I have to take off the clear lens when I switch the diffuser then put the bezel back to hold it. Hopes this help.

Great minds think alike : :thinking:

Just wish I had posted first :mecry:

 

[Superorb]

^^ Is that a painted low profile SS bezel?
