Hey folks... I was reading another post and the serial number of a U2 was mentioned. Just for kicks, lets list our light # and location (strictly scientific lol)


I"ll start

A08350 - Boston, Ma
 
I had an older, 1st gen U2, but sold it. Just received the latest edition:

#A07866 in Northern California
GREAT tintless beam, slight donut that isn't noticible, unless you stare at thebeam against a white wall ;)

A03037 staying in Norway after it had a short stay in the UK :)

Very bright (brighter than my WX0S at the same current level), nice warm white tint and a donught only visible for a CPF'er (and only at a short distance interval)

A00276 is my serial number. I had it RMAd a couple of months ago and they sent me a scorching white led with my original body! I was very glad because the new bodies have the sleeves and this one is 18650 ready. Much better color on the new bezel also. It actually matches the body instead of that purple black on the older bezels.
 
A10040 - Singapore

Tint is very white on on level 6, warmer on the other levels. Very bright, but noticeable donut hole. No idea whether the donut hole would be considered severe or not, since I haven't seen other examples. HA is nice and black; no purple tints.
 
A01673 - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Tint is white on level 6 but gets warmer on lower levels.
Dirt on the inside of lens.

:)
 
A05367 in Penang, Malaysia, but ordered from OpticsHQ.
slight donut on wall hunting, warm white tint all the way. no insert sleeve & box says 2-100 lumens. annodize color matches throughout but came with 4 small chips through to bare al on bezel.
 
A07343

Good brightness, slightly odd tint (almost cyan?). Donut is there but very very minor.
 
A02401 - Hong Kong, China

Got it months after it was out, YA tinted, very bright at level 6(possibly a W bin), no purple-ish black HAIII, no donut.

Are we going to have an international U2 fan club/gathering? :naughty:
 
A05510 in North Carolina

Minimal almost unnoticeable donut. Nice white color. HA pure black and well matched.
 
A09291

Toronto, Canada.

Slight donut, but over 100 lumens so that makes it ok. Tint is white and slightly on the warm side.


:thumbsup: WP
 
A04333 here in Florida.

Slightly green, but frickin' bright!

No donut to speak of (just ever so slightly on low, inches from the wall).

Had a sticky tailcap (wouldn't turn off reliably), which I got replaced by SF.
