This is a great mod. Now that the E2DL is putting out 200 lumens I may be coming back.

Time for a little New Years bump.
I just received a toothless E2DL tailcap from M I K today what a class act person and the modded tailcap should be mandatory for all you E1B owners. No more slipping around in the hand or worrying its gonna slip out of the hand.
I think its a great alternative to getting a Z61 for the E2DL and like I said IMO its the best possible set up for the E1B.
Nice job M I K thanks!

Just got my E2DL head de-fanged. M I K's work is excellent. For months I had planned to swap bezels with an E1B, but I was afraid to damage potentially two heads. This is so much easier. And easier on the pocket too, both on the material and the little cash I have inside it.
This my new EDC. It runs on a 3.7V RCR123 and outshines my stock E1B by a good 15 to 20%.
Thanks M I K !
Nice work!
A few quick questions-
Can you do a little less radical de-fang? I like some crenellation, but just not the super sharp, chisel point teeth on the stock SureFire. Maybe halfway between stock and the above?
I have a Nitecore NDI that has "teeth", but they are nowhere near as sharp, and are way more pocket friendly if that gives you an idea of what I'm going for.
Also, what single cell body is that guy running with his E2DL head? How does that affect output/lumens and run time?
Also, I have the SureFire E2D incandescent. I'm assuming you can do that one as well?
Let me know, I'm very interested. The too sharp teeth and the length (but mostly the supersharp teeth) kept this light from being an EDC.

Southpaw, the body in that photo is a Surefire E1B.
The heads I have run just as bright on 1 rechargeable battery as they do on 2 primary batteries. I run mine on 1 rcr123 in an E1E or Aleph body or on 1 17500 battery in an Aleph body.
I love M I K's work. He defanged a head a while back and you can't tell it isn't stock. His work is perfect. In fact, I am waiting on 2 more heads to return from M I K.

Just got my E2D back from Merrill today...
Outstanding! is the only way to describe it!
Now I can`t wait for my drop in for it to arrive!
Definitely extremely pocketable and the tail cap mod makes it stay in my hand!
Totally loving it!
Thanks again Merrill!

Thanks GLOCK 22. Nothing like a bump after 8 months. Welcome to CPF.

Fellas I can't for the life of me understand why more real users don't run M I K mods on their lights.
I am just glad our path's crossed here sometime back as I have his TC mods on both of my EDC's, an E1B Creemator & E1E RoomSweeper. Stay the course brother Merril, have a safe & prosperous New Year !

I couldn't have said it any better myself Mr. G. Such fine words coming from an A+ member as yourself is music to my ears. God Bless you my friend.
On a side note, I'm curious if perhaps there may be a way to promote the tail cap switch modification I do. I'm not sure how better to do it than to give a money back guarantee. A person doesn't even have to let go of their original switch as I can sell a separate modified switch. As you're comments relay Agile54, for comfort and convenience it puts a SureFire E series light in a league of it's own. For the time and effort involved, I currently have what I believe to be a very fair price on the MIKmod switch. In fact, it is so non-profitable for me that one can notice the time frame difference in my thread bumps between reply #74 and 75.
Oh well Agile54, we dang sure have ours in our pockets.
Thank You Sir and Happy New Year.
