Hi guys After a long wait I have received my first K2 based emitter globe replacement.
It is called the Diamond DB-K2. This one is for 3 cell and more flashlights. If you use more than 3 cells you need to use dummy cells.
It is very simple to use.
Take the old lamp out put this one in.
What you get is a nice white adjustable beam.
I was able to measure it with the meterman at 8500 lux at 1 meter. This was a rough measurement not done with care or attention. It could be off either way.
Any way you look at it this is not bad for a 30 second mod.
I will be playing with different reflectors and a clear glass lens.
This makes it ever so easy to mod a Maglight. The beam is just fine. The price is not bad either at $25.00.
I used to pay almost that much for LUX III emitters for the space needle Mod.
The K2 Version of the Diamond is rated at 130 lumen's. the package says
6 1/2 watts.
It sort of feels like LUX V power in a LUX III package.
That is a good amount of power.
Is that real power? I don't know yet but I think it is pretty close.
To not stick one of these into a mag light would be silly. It is just too easy.
I look forward to seeing what Mag comes up with in this area. These will be hard to beat.
