Yes, I was in reference of the L2T "Caution Hot Surface" lettering on the head not lining up with the lettering on the L2P body, but I realize each light is probably just a little different from the next, even in the same model line.
I have a few Lego'd parts that don't line up and it kind of irks me, but I try to get over it.
Those little lanyard rings and such that I put between the tailcap and body really throw a wrinkle in things, too... 3-way mismatch! 😡 :shakehead

My latest addition for nightly walks. The Cryos helps to keep the UF XM-L 3-Mode on High (direct drive)

Nice looking light SCEMan. What's the clip from?

It's a NovaTac "old style" clip. They used to be easy to get but not anymore...

Fast shipping!
My L2T and blue L2P were at the door Saturday. I wasn't home, so I picked 'em up yesterday.
I haven't been able to wrest the camera from my wife, so no photos yet.
Also, the blue is a "gift" to myself for early next year - so I'm trying to maintain willpower and not open it.
From the blister pack, though, the blue is MUCH darker than shown on the website. More of a deep denim than bright royal blue, and matte - no shinyness.
I actually like it a lot better this way, and hope the G10 on my new knife (that I got it to match) follows suit.
My dog and I enjoyed the L2T on our walk last night. But the CR123's I popped in were nearly dead (2.35V/ea,) so I couldn't test the throw or total output of the 5-mode XP-G drop-in. On Med and even Low, it still lit the path quite adequately, where there was no streetlight. Beam looked nice, and quite neutral. Batts also rattled a bit - I wrapped the fresh ones I put in this morning in electrical tape - Silence!
If I was going to use it for walking, I'd probably pop off the cigar ring. However, since I got it as a bike light, I'll leave it as a little extra security in case the velcro strap loosens while riding.
Overall, I'm very pleased. These probably won't be my last Solar-Force lights. (I'm already thinking of a Masterpiece as a high-beam for the bike...)

New and last acquisition. 🙂
Until a new style host from Solarforce will become available. 😗.

I took a shot of the blue one.
The tailcap switch was a little hard to access, and tailstand was a little wobbly, so I ground some crenelations in the tail, and put an o-ring between the switch boot and tailcap. Perfect!

Looks like you have a MPP-2 is there a noticeable difference compared to the MPP-1?
I ask because I have the 1 and was considering getting the 2 just because I fancy it. Thoughts?
Mine is all done!!!
Old dropin and body but new head/bezel/tail! Now its perrrrrfect!
Wow, that's beautiful! I need it, I need it!!!
I hope you don't mind if I copy the idea!?.. 😉
BTW guys which drop-in do you recommend? I need a bright one (maybe 300lm ANSI) with at least 3 modes. 😉
Tomorrow I'll add pictures of my 3 Solarforce flashlights.

Real nice light! What would the advantage with a quad LED versus a single XM-L? THe color is very striking. Hopefully they will produce another run. The HAIII is also very nice.
