The A2's battery tube may have some electronics in the body - at least, it looks like it to me. Since the A2 is Surefire's only regulated incandescent, I'm pretty sure it will not work on other bodies. Besides, you'd have to buy an A2 just to get the head, so why just use the A2 as is? It's a great light. Mine has the red LED's.

Welcome to CPF!

The A2's bezel does not fit on any other SureFire.
The A2's bezel is fed by regulated power from the electronics inside the body.

The M2 and A2 are not interchangeable.

This photo shows the A2 and M2 together so you can see the size difference.

Al, on your C2, is that a copper o-ring under the bezel?

Size15's · Jan 20, 2005

That's an M2 (shock isolated bezel). It's a very special M2 too. The ring is more like Gold then Copper and it ain't an o-ring. Put it this way, if I said it was just for show, would you believe me?

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wow.gif Where can I get one? I just called SF for a replacement pocket clip for my L5, but a copper or gold spacer could work as well /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thinking.gif

spacer? You can't buy that part. It is part of that M2 and a proto-type (an old one at that - check out the serial number!).

M2D????

Size15's · Jan 20, 2005

This is way older then the M2D proto-types!

Anyway, back on topic...
You can see that the A2's bezel requires very specific contacts with the electronics module:
