Will the new Cree XR-E P4 LED 170 lumen bulb work with the Surefire M3 light?

I suppose I would have to remove the M3 reflector, but will it work?

I'm interested in this also. Gordov2, where is this LED you are referring to? URL? I'd like to check it out.

Is this an 'of the shelf' product by any chance? I'm assuming you are referring to a particular cree drop in?

One of the dumbest ideas I've seen yet on this forum. Take a really good light and turn it into a really mediocre one.

You know, I was just wondering. It's not really necessary to be rude.


The Cree drop-in I am speaking about is the version by Wolf Eyes/PTS:Cree XR-E LED 3.7V-13V D26 Lamp *High Output* [HO D26/Cree LED] Cree XR-E P4 LED *170 Lumen* 3.7V-13V D26

I presume if I remove the M3 reflector and drop-in the Cree, it might be too small. Any opinions are appreciated; even the mean ones.
