Not sure I believe that it will output 450 lumens, although I am sure it is 5X brighter than what the Photon Torpedo comes with. I upgraded my Photons LED and driver a long time ago and it is probably due for another upgrade. Not sure if I want to just buy another LED or purchase the entire module. Let me know if it works okay or GREAT!

Do you know what modification needs to be performed? Since you mentioned et al I assume you know there are many other lights using the same modules?

I'm assuming just a spacer like with the cree R-2. Et al. refers to other lights using the UK bezel and lens...Halcyon, Light Monkey, Manta ...........

It's a good module although a bit floody. I believe it is 450 lumens.

Ah, there you are.

I'm not looking for floody, rather something like this :

I don't think you are going to get much of a spot with any of the really small reflectors.

The beam picture above is supposed to be with the small reflector above. It does look kind of close to the wall. Oh well, I'll just try it and see.
