I have a Cateye Triple Shot light that I use for night mountain biking. The documentation when I purchased it said that it has Luxeon III LEDs. I am wondering if there is an upgrade that would be fairly easy to install. Here is a picture of the inside of the light.

If you can remove more parts to expose the emitter's leads, then it would probably be very easy to upgrade to brighter bin Luxeon III LEDs. The Seoul P4 would just about double your brightness if you could substitute those, but the optics in the TripleShot might not work well with them. You might be able to put reflectors in their place, but I don't know which ones would work well in this application.

What wasBlinded said - the SSC P4 is going to be your best bet for a z1000 bas emitter that will work with your existing optics.
