I just took apart my L4 (only got it yesterday), and had a thought but need some opinions from those of you who have opened up a KL4 before.
Obviously the emitter won't go further into the reflector without enlarging the reflector hole, but it seems that it is possible to move the emitter away from the reflector. The idea is to place thin washers or shims between the black heatsink and the reflector head.
However I did not have any washers of that size so I connected the circuit to some batteries and moved the heatsink slowly outwards by hand. The result was that the void in the center can be removed at the expense of it being slightly more flood than spot.... That's all I can come up with at the moment.
Maybe others can try this and make some comments?
