SOLARFORCE 225 lumen tactical flashlight

Anyone any experience or knowledge of these lights?

E-bay item number 180175435149, looks impressive but is it?

Looks a bit like this light from Dealextreme except with a wider voltage range and accessories. Not something I would trust on a gun but might be good for everyday use.

Yes, I bought from e-bay and replace my Surefire 6P incan to this one. Personally I like it and very very bright and what a cheap upgrade from ebay. So good I bought another one to replace my second Surefire 6P. :twothumbs

Any idea if the heads are interchangeable with the 6P head?

!I'm still shocked by this statement! Surely, you jest!

I'm considering picking up one of these 225-250-275 lumen eBay Q5 modules to hold me over until DX has some in stock. I too, would like to know if the heads are interchangeable, and if the modules are well constructed. The strike bezel would look pretty good on a 6P, me thinks. Add a z59, and I think I'd be set!

You could look at this thread and look for a LED drop-in instead of a whole new head.

I wouldn't mind a drop-in also but I really need a head and want to make sure it fits before I buy it.

Gunner12 · Nov 30, 2007

Why do you need a new bezel? Is it for the crenelation?

cfromc · Nov 30, 2007

I just need a head to complete a Surefire lego I'm building. The cheapest route would be an aftermarket head, although I am considering an M2 head, but they are more difficult (and expensive) to find than one of the Solarforces.
