Does anyone know if the standard surefire E1/E2 head will work with the Vitalgear FB-AA and FB-123 body ? I only see them pictured at TAD with the KL-1 head...
Which head?

The threads match, so you could screw the E2 bezel on it physically. But the bodies dont have a switch, they work by twisting the bezel. Im not sure how/if that would work with an E series lamp assembley.
Can the KL1 heads handle 3 new 123's. If so, how's the runtime? Can you run a KL4 head on 3 new 123's, or 2 AA's, how about 2 AA rechargables?
Sorry for all the questions...I was away from the boards for several months and much has changed, lot's of new stuff and cool ideas.

Stingray,
The KL1 will run on 3x123s, no problems as far as I know. But KL4 is not recommended for 3x123s, as I think heat is a big issue.

Please note that on the Vitalgear bodies, you'll really have to screw down the head *_TIGHT_* in order to get the lamp to turn on.
I suspect that this is due to the somewhat "oversized" o-ring at the bezel-to-body junction....
This shortcoming, however, could be usefully considered a "feature" and advantage if the user requires extra security against accidental light discharge or switch-on.
