This is one of the few times im probably going to sell something non-laser related here, but the flashlight pack is getting too crowded as well.

The first is an Ultrafire C2 18650 host with a XM-L T6 generating 900-950 lumens. The driver is a 3-mode with memory linear driver that puts out 2.8A on high.

the C2 is the shorter one. that light came as a DIY host, and was built by me. The modes are as follows: low, med, High

these pictures were taking in my garage with the door closed. It was pitch black in there. from where i was standing, the distance to the hotspot was about 25 feet. At night, high mode fills my whole back yard with the hotspot lighting objects 150 feet away. The wide head of the C2 gives this light LOTS of FLOOD, but still has a very bright hot spot that has good throw.

the next one is a Solarfoce L2 host with a XM-L P60 drop-in. The manufacturer stated the drop in was rated at 900 lumens, but it doesnt seem quite there. Maybe 800 as it is just barely barely less bright than the Ultrafire C2. What's cool about the solarforce light is that I upgraded the tailcap. The new tailcap can handle 3A+ and can tail stand, something the original host couldnt do. Plus it gives both ends of the flashlight an "assault" look.

the solarforce has slightly better throw but as you can see from the round circle of light, it doesnt have as much flood as the C2. the C2 lights up entire rooms at night, the solarforce gives you a much more centered beam.

both lights are $60 each + shipping. each light comes with 1 18650 battery.

thanks folks.

Nice offer. I just nabbed a couple 3X18650 Hi-Lumen Flashlights otherwise I'd take these off your hands. This is a good non-laser offer IMO though, I'm sure they'll go :beer:

I thought you wanted a tight spot... I saw your WTB thread after I already paid for the solarforce. Didn't think to recommend the C2 since it is more of a flood:eek:

I thought this was a great deal and doesn't ever hurt to have a flood and maybe a spot if I can find one. Don't know if it's still available or not. Are you going to re-sell the Solarforce?

Maybe, probably not, but definitely not until I at least receive it and play around with it a bit:) I also like tight beams, and the price was good... just the drop in is ~$30 the host with the standing cap imo was definitely a steal for the other $30.

At least in part, I got this light to see how that drop in performs. I have two hosts that would accept the same one... I wanted to get the C2 as well, but got a green laser for $70 instead - that's a good price but I don't know which was/is the better deal. Also to me, how large the head of the flashlight is quite important, since I like to carry a flashlight in my pocket and basically anything larger than a g3 is is not comfortable to me.

Just checked shipping status.... Out for delivery :)

I'm tempted to go camping for a day just to play with my lasers and new flashlight in the woods :)

Me being the paranoid person that I am... these are case positive I assume?

the flashlight is case negative, positive towards the front, negative at the tailcap. i havent seen a case positive flashlight before... i thought only green lasers were.

I think I may be mixing up the terminology...

I thought it is called "case positive" if the + is towards the front of the light... the case.

Case negative if the (-) is toward the front of the light:thinking::undecided:

Surprisingly, the O-like 1.2W is actually + toward tail cap... which is weird since it's a 445.
