I got spare drivers and Q5's knocking around and I need a cheap throw host, this looks ideal, at least from the pictures.

Still I don't want to order it if it doesn't take a 18650 (just tube side, I would be swapping out the driver) or indeed if it has some kind of driver/resistor in the tail cap, like this line on DX maybe hinting at: "2-Mode (Hi/Lo) tail clicky".

Anyone?

Wouldn't the WF-600 work?(cheaper too)

It's cheaper too. Yes the switch has a resistor, bot you can solder in a new one stage switch.

I want throw, but I can justify losing some for a smooth beam, the hugsby OP reflector appeals to me much more, and looks like it may be a tad bigger/deeper than the WF.

Also I wasn't sure if the WFreflector was plastic or not, and I don't like how it doesnt fit the cree snugly...conversely the hugsby seems to have a nice accessible pill that screws on to reflector, with any luck they could be p60 sized pills.

I see.

Well, I can't offer help since I haven't read and reviews of the light yet.

Mine arrived today (DX)

It's 3 Mode (High-Medium-Strobe) and the LED + driver is glued in the reflector :thumbsdow (Reflector works perfectly as heatsink)

Because of the big & deep reflector, it has a great throw with very good sidespill.

Cree tint is warm (probably WG) and seems to be a bit greenish.
