I managed to remove the LED module from Romisen RC-A4 (1xCR123A) light, and now am looking to replace it with another. I am a total newbie, and Google search for RC-A4 drop-ins turned up nothing. Attached are some photos of the stock LED module

So my questions are:
(1) Which dropin will fit the Romisen RC-A4?
(2) What measurements do I require to take to find a compatible dropin? (I noticed diameters, and so on.)

Preferably I am looking for a neutral tint, two or three modes with mode memory (okay with one strobe), SMO reflector, and a capability to run on RCR123 batteries. At this point, I don't have capabilities to solder, etc., so a ready made solution will work best.

If I am jumping too quickly, and require to read something (homework), kindly point me to the relevant docs, and I'll post an informed query then. :)

I could be wrong but, I think you will have to change out the led and driver, I don't believe they make different drop-ins.

You can replace the original light engine by using a standart P60 dropin. The only thing you have to do is sanding down the reflector. I've done this mod some month ago and published it in the german Messerforum. Voilà
