Hello and welcome to CPF

Your post above has been approved, in lightly edited form

You are welcome to discuss these vintage SureFire in the general forums, but please note that "price fishing" is not allowed here

If you wish to sell them, you will need to get a Supporter Badge, and to set a price (no requests for offers) in the WTS MarketPlace forum instead

Thanks for your understanding

I do not have any intention of selling here on the CP forum. I don't know what I have nor what it's worth, so I guess by default I am fishing for a price and information.

Thank you for not deleting my thread just because.

After looking at my pics, can anyone comment on the heads? I'm thinking I unintentionally switched the Outdoorsman head with one of the E2E.

No worries, and always a pleasure to see cool vintage SureFire :cool:

We can discuss all of the details, save for price / value you should search completed sales instead.

That early vintage KL1 looks to be the "old-school" version ... most collectible part of the whole batch you've pictured above :)

Yep. That KL1 is very collectible. But the outdoorsman was incandescent only wasn't it? With the very sought after 25 lumen bulb. The only real difference from a standard E2E.

Outdoorsman also had the long clip instead of the shorty from the factory in addition to the MN02 bulb IIRC.

That 4-rib KL1 is the second iteration with scalloped front. The first iteration had 4 ribs, but no scallops in the front bezel. I have one of each. Both used the 1W Lumileds, and today would be considered low output and pretty blue. I changed both of mine to SSCs, which doubles the output, but still considered low and blue today. Collectible, huh?!

Those e2e bodies are also later generation - IIRC the early ones had 3 flat sides (mine are all at home), like that Outdoorsman.

These look to be in nice shape. You can swap any of those heads, bodies and tails as you like.

I dearly miss my incandescent E2e. I quite literally bonded with it when I landed on it after being thrown from a moving car. Good times.
