Modlite PLHv2 Light Head
This light head is a direct replacement for the Surefire M600DF head. It can be used with the Modlite 18650 body or the smaller Modlite 18350 body.
While lumen output with this light is similar to the Surefire M600DF, the throw is much better suited to allow PID (Positive ID) at greater distances at more than three times the amount throw than the M600DF. This light is a large step forward from the PLHv1 light. Lumen output is about the same but throw is greatly improved. It is the best balance of flood and throw available.

PLHV2 is a great option for the majority of people, in my view.

Great if you work out in the boonies or need to cut through ambient lighting to a specific spot. It would be nice to see a gas pedal switch compatible version of this.
