A Hong Kong flashlight manufacturer. In addition to some other types of lights, they sell P60 hosts and drop-ins. website
Lights
L2 Series
All L2 series lights accommodate a P60 drop-in and are based on the SureFire 6P flashlight. Drop-ins are available with varying numbers of modes (1, 3, or 5) and voltage ranges allowing anywhere from 2 AA batteries to multiple CR123 batteries. The "High Output" drop-in has an input voltage of 0.8-4.2V allowing it to run from 1-3 NiMH cells or a single lithium ion cell. The regular drop-in has input voltage from 4.2V-18V allowing multiple lithium-ion or CR123A cells to be used. Lights can be further customized with various bezels, tail assemblies, and body tube extensions. The body, head, and tail of Solarforce lights are compatible with Surefire C and P series lights, but the Solarforce bezels are not. Many of the body-colored spare parts are available only in glossy black (L2) or matte black (HA III L2P).
L2 - The original light is a 1x18650 host. Available in glossy black, gunmetal gray, or sand body colors.
L2P - Similar to the L2 but with better anodizing (Type III HA instead of Type II), a less aggressive bezel, and milder knurling. Matte black or gray body colors.
L2X - Similar to the L2 but with a knobby body and therefore lacks some of the finer details like the hex head. Available in September 2010. Also available in a 2x18650 extended version.
L2m - A 1xCR123A version of the L2. An extension for a second CR123A is available, but only the newer "2009" version is bored wide enough to accommodate an 18650.
L2-R - A 2xAA version of the L2. The L2-R tailcap is narrower than the L2's and tailstands.
L2-i - A 3xAAA version of the L2 with the batteries inserted into a caddy and then into the tube. Has a wider tailcap that tailstands.
Other lights
Skyline 1x18650 or 2xCR123A 1-mode light with Cree XR-E R2 LED and a large head and very deep reflector for greater throw. By pressing and holding the power button, the user can select any brightness from max down to 5% output. Double-clicking the power button invokes strobe. 200 lumens with 18650, 260 lumens claimed with 2xCR123A. Max voltage is 6V, so 16340's are not recommended.
Skyline II 1x18650 or 2xCR123A light with Cree XR-E R2 LED. Very knobby knurling. By pressing and holding the power button, the user can select any brightness from max down to 5% output. Double-clicking the power button invokes strobe. 200 lumens with 18650, 260 lumens claimed with 2xCR123A. Max voltage is 6V, so 16340's are not recommended.
Masterpiece 2x18650 light with Cree MC-E M LED with 3 modes of 50, 350, and 800 lumens of output.
Masterpiece Pro-1 Not really a flashlight, but a large head with a Cree XR-E LED for greater throw that can be put on a Solarforce host body.
