SureFire has released new upgrade/replacement heads for use with their Scout Light WeaponLight system. Designed as direct screw-on replacements for the current M300, M600 Ultra, and M620 WeaponLights the KE1-A (3 volt, 200 lumen) and KE2-A (6 volt, 500 lumen) can now be purchased individually.
Housed behind a coated and tempered window, a Total Internal Reflection (TIR) lens is used to focus the output from the new heads into a far-reaching beam that also provides adequate illumination for peripheral vision. Installation is simple; unscrew the existing head and screw on the replacement head.
Both versions feature aerospace aluminum construction and with O-rings and gaskets to keep out moisture, dust and dirt. Wear and corrosion resistance are provided by a Mil-Spec hard anodized finish, available in both black (BK) or desert tan (TN).

Additional information is available from the SureFire website:
Are there any runtime graphs of this head vs. the one used in then E2DLU and EB2?
I have not seen any yet. I’m a little curious what the result will be as the advertised specs for the KE1 and KE2-A are slightly different than the EB1/EB2/E2DL Ultra with the most notable difference being in runtime. However, this may be due to SureFire rating them differently based upon the different types of usage – handheld light vs. weapon mounted light.
Even with the difference in specs, I would expect them all to be the same but without trying one I can’t say for sure.
Thanks for stopping by!
Hi! Do you have any updated info on run times for this head?
Hi Bill, I’m afraid I don’t have any additional information. Everything I know about these is based upon what SureFire has published.
