I have found a few on e-bay , some retails for 25$ others for 32$ shipped.

I wondering if someone grabbed this kind of SF L2 .
Quite nice in my opinion, I like the flat bezel with SS ring , but quite big for a one CR123 light : 11 cm the lenght and 3.2 cm the bezel diameter.

I like pic 3!

A cheap way to house an M30 and run it on an RCR123.

The small SS bezel ring is an excellent touch! I will have to get one of those. :thumbsup:

Re: new mini SOLRAFORCE L2 ...

3 is my favourite too : metal colour, peaceful bezel, silver ring .
The pb is that this is 32$ on e-bay while I found only the black one with strike bezel for 25$
Huh, those guys are playing with the prices ...
The L2 mini should be less than an L2 which was 25-27$ shipped !:poke:

Nope it won't. Solarforce bezel rings all have a different thread pitch than Surefires. :(

If it would work I'd order a dozen of these new ones!

Well they say it fits Surefires huh? I've heard that from them before!

What the heck I'll get one and see if it is another fantasy. Only 8 bucks.

I just ordered it, if it's really SF compatible I'll be sure to let you know!

Ooo, maybe it's SF E-series compatible so I can stick the silver head on my McClickie Pak

Re: new mini SOLRAFORCE L2 ...

I tried to switch the rings, but couldn't get the 9P bezel ring to open. Are they glued, should I boil the head? Solarforce ring unscrews easily...

Re: new mini SOLRAFORCE L2 ...

I'll try that later, I'm at work now. People would think that I'm crazy if I went to the kitchen to boil my flashlight parts... :)

Re: new mini SOLRAFORCE L2 ...

boil water and leave the head in it for 5 minutes. Unscrew, dry and switch rings. Go nice and slow.

I got a black bezel with SS ring from http://www.solarforcestore.com , it's supposed to be HAIII too. They sell also just the ring separetly and say that it fits surefire and G&P flashlights.

They fit both the Solarforce and G&P but do not fit the G2 and most likely the 6P. The plastic rings have different thread to the metal ones.

Re: new mini SOLRAFORCE L2 ...

Wow. I find this funny because I have been looking for a 3P clone for months, and bought FiveMega's 1x16340 body to make my own. I'll give the solarforce a try also. Thanks for the heads up!

Here's my 3P clone, with Solarforce bezel and forward clicky tailcap:
