'''Aurora SH-035''' 5-mode memory 1xAA/14500 stainless steel light with Cree XP-E Q5. This light worked with an AA cell, but failed and caused a dead short with a 14500. DX gave me a store credit (and refund eventually), but let me keep the light. Then I put an NANJG 112A driver in it (li-ion or 1xAA) set to 2 modes and upgraded the LED to a neutral white XP-G R4 and it turned out pretty good (very close to the perfect light described below). I drilled the opening in the reflector out a little to give the LED room to stick into the bottom.

'''UltraFire WF-501B''' 1x18650 P60 host with a 5-mode Cree MC-E. Claims to be M bin, but who knows? Almost too bright: if you use it outside the very bright spill on the foreground ground or overhanging trees prevents you from seeing very far. I swapped out Shiningbeam's 3-mode P7/MC-E driver for the original, but light output was about the same. Prominent doughnut in beam partially fixed by swapping out a reflector.

The ideal driver would be similar to the ideal flashlight and have 2 (LH) or 3 modes (LMH), no strobes or SOS. Mode memory would be good. If the modes can't be set manually, they should be about 5%, 50%, and 100%. Input only needs to be one li-ion cell. Output should be 1200-1400 mA with good regulation. I'm not finding that yet, so I have been looking at NANJG drivers with 1000 mA of output.

'''Programmable Drivers''' Some drivers, like the AK-47 and the 101-AK have an Atmel Tiny13 chip on board. It may be possible to reprogram this chip to get not only exactly the number of modes and the light levels you want, but also to program it to be programmable. I've ordered a clip to attach to the chip and a USB flasher and hopefully can try it out using WinAVR. More information [http://budgetlightforum.cz.cc/node/799 here]

[http://budgetlightforum.com/node/289 My results]. The '''101-AK-A1''' from [http://www.kaidomain.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductId=11218&AffiliateId=1890 KD] is similar to the Shiningbeam driver, but is 5-modes. However by soldering two legs together, it can be set to 3 well-spaced modes of 2%, 28%, and 100%. I put one of these in my Ultrafire X1.
   
   
'''<U>NANJG 10</U>''' 3x7135 1000mA driver with 5, 3 (LMH), or 7 modes selectable by clicky similar to 101-AK. [http://www.kaidomain.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductId=1677&AffiliateId=1890 KD]

'''Focusing lens for P60 hosts''' For lights like the Ultrafire WF-502B, provides very tight focus of beam similar to X2000 flood-to-throw lights but shape of LED is maybe 70% of the size of the X2000 projection, so even better for throw. Need to black out the reflector though to avoid weird spill. Works better for the XR-E than XP-G.

'''Coated lens for P60 hosts''' Anti-reflective coating lets more light out than uncoated glass that comes with Ultrafire and Solarforce L2's. [http://www.kaidomain.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductId=1766 KD] and similar ([http://budgetlightforum.cz.cc/node/1026 same?]) but slightly cheaper [http://kaidomain.com/ProductDetails.aspx?ProductId=9064 KD]. I got the more expensive ones. Still cheap compared to others.

'''<U>Focusing lens for X2000</U>''' Probably plastic like the original. Can fit inside the reflector of a P60 host with the flat lens still in place, but you'll lose some light going through the extra lens and could scratch up your reflector.
