Surefire P60 lamps are preset for a usable balance between throw & flood, what you're asking for would have to be a custom creation the only one I know of is Fivemega's D26 Strion adapter module as seen HERE :thumbsup:
EDIT: Oh I'd quite forgotten about those aspherical lenses

You could use an aspheric lens to really tighten the beam up. It would probably require some custom work to make though.
Hmmm... there's an idea: Aspheric D26 dropin :devil:

See that is what I was thinking. Any lens grinders on the board that would like a challenge? Maybe an optician?

Give me a couple weeks to finish current projects, and I may have one in the works. I drew up a plan over lunch, and it looks like a neat challenge.
I just finished an aspheric D20, so keep an eye out for a thread on that :thumbsup:

My G2Z with DX aspherical lens and R2 dropin. It took some grinding (Dremel tool) to fit in. I also had to use the upper ~3mm portion of a P60 dropin to get the spacing just right. I just cut the upper lip of the LA off and dropped in in the bezel behind the lens.
The beamshot is from about 15 feet in my well lit bathroom at 3pm. Combined with the Surefire difuser, it's a very versitle light.

Ok so it will cause a square output beam pattern BUT it does seem to tighten up the beam a great deal.
How well does the diffuser work?
Interesting, I might give it a try.
