I have had a few Solarforce L2M's for a while now. All with solarforce 3mode R2 low voltage dropins (0.8v-4.2v).
I recently just took the positive contact spring off one of my dropins for an L2m to fit a single eneloop AA in it.
Still damn bright for a single AA, just checking out usable runtime at the moment. On fresh cells from about 5 metres its hard to determine the difference in hotspots between the same in a single CR123A primary setup or 2AA setup with eneloops. Might be time to invest in a light meter and do some playing around with configs.
Also got an SMO reflector and a few aspherics to play around with and see what config works well with a single AA L2M.
Might post some updates/pics when they arrive.
