Thought I would share this for those that might be interested in the difference in the XLR 250 Kill light and the UltraFire C8 from Gadgettown.com. The XLR on the left and the UltraFire on the right in both pictures.

for those guys that already have an xlr this would be a great backup light for $16.

ok, but if I don't have an XLR to remove the green LED from, what size or replacement would it be?

I picked up one of these Smith & Wesson lights a while back and love it. It's pretty dang bright, really durable, and a great buy. The two AA batteries last quite a while considering how bright it is.

Product Link: Amazon S&W LED Light

I wrote a review about it if you're interested in reading it:

Not sure about getting a green bulb. Im sure you can somewhere. The measurements are 1 inch wide and 5/8 inch depth. You will have to convert that into metric im sure.

I saw in the thread where some were talking about a green bulb. Any luck on locating one for this particular light?

I'd be interested in knowing what they say. I did a search on their page, but didn't see where they sold replacement LED bulbs.

How long does it last with 1 battery.
How does it hold up to outside temperature?
Will it stand a drop from 3'?
Is it water proof or useable during fog, rain or damp weather?

lets us know, looks like a deal.

I think I am going to pass on this particular light! I have tried to order it from their website and was not able to do so. I tried to contact their phone number and I got a recording of someone that could barely speak english plus the phone number had a Brooklyn, New York listing. Also I think it is going to be a be pain in the rear to get a replacement bulb.

Ummm... Just a thought. The 2nd picture shows the XLR to cover a smaller area. If you twist the front you can change the size. The upper picture seems to do the same thing, giving it the appearance of being less bright. The XLR is supposed to be 800 lumens. If this light is ~400 lumens, someone has some wires crossed somewhere...
