After a fight with my wallet I ordered a 2L. I switched heads with my UK 4aa eled. It makes a real small 2 123 batt powered light. The small form factor combined with the superb regulation make for a sweet light. I have been using it for everything now...for about two weeks. Mentaly, the light (head) output seems more impressive mounted in the small body. Roy found the 4 aa setup ran 13 hours (very solid) before the big death drop. I would guess the 123 setup will run close to 10 hours solid.
Its no Pelican M6 led at the start, but leave them both on for 2 hours...and the little UK continues to trot along brightly for many more hours (maybe 8?) while the M6 crawls dimmly in agoney, begging for a batt change.
I was unsure if I wanted to spend the 25 bucks to get the 2L body...but glad I did.
BTW...as I said...put the 2L head on the 4AA and... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsdown.gif Can`t think of anything nice to say about that. The beam is just /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smoker5.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink2.gif
