Hello - I'm relatively new to Torches but have some know-how on electronics.
I have recently purchased the following from a seller on ebay called Flashlight Express:
Solarforce L2 - R2 Cree 7090 XR-E LED
Solarforce L2M - R2 Cree 7090 XR-E LED
I would like to know how to check if the drop-ins are genuine Solarforce and not some cheap copy? Both drop-ins just have a sticker saying Solar<small gap>Force.
I'm also wanting to know the voltage ranges that I can push on the R2 bulbs. The drop-in in the L2M doesn't light on a new Energizer CR123 that was measuring 2.9V, but worked okay on a different CR123 measuring just over 3V.
Are there different versions of the R2 drop-in that works on different voltages?
I have an L2 with R2 5-mode which I purchased from a UK supplier called KNW. This drop-in has an orange/red sticker. I believe this is a genuine Solarforce product.
Thanks in advance or any help and info.
