You can put a two stage McGizmo kit into an E series tailcap though. So you'll have an L1 in a E1L form factor.

I modded my E1L's z57 tailcap with a 20 ohm 1/4 watt. I can tell now that i have run a couple batts through mine that the low beam is lower then when it drops out of regulation.If that makes sense?
