6PL or G2L? Surefire's new LED 6P and G2

[UVvis]

Has anyone used or played with the 6PL or G2L? These appear to be surefire's standard lights with their own "P" series LED drop in.

I guess these are running SSC based LED's. I have made a couple Luxeon P bulbs and bought a couple of the new Cree drop ins people have been selling, but haven't seen these yet.

I have played with both and own the G2 led as do a few guys I know. I am very happy with brightness and battery life of it. It has a good beam focus and shoots it out a good distance and definitely has a good battery life. It’s rated at 80lumens and 12 hours of life for the G2 led the 6P is the same lumen wise but an hour less battery life which is probably due to the metal body or some other factor.

They are pretty good and cheap way for folks to get into a high quality LED I think.

Are the LED heads available aftermarket for the G2's I already have?

I'm thinking these may be a good way to go for my weapons lights.

I'm currently running a G2 with shock bezel and a p60 bulb inside or for outside a p91 bulb and 9v conversion. Although I need a new p91 bulb.

Yes. Also, don't buy any more incan bulbs from SF until you look at the Lumens Factory bulbs!

Grant, do you have an approximate price for the Surefire LED bulb?

I think retail on the G2L is $65.

Grant is that the whole flashlight or just the lamp?

Just the lamp module.

Wow. What's the cost for the whole light?
