Does this have the "CREE XM-L" LED or the "CREE XM-L2 gen2" LED?

I believe they are Gen2 Cree XM-L2, as of late Oct 2013. I don't have any special tools to check/confirm the authenticity of the Gen2 spec, so I came up with these two things that I am satified with: 1) Sticker Test! ;) I can confirm that the light "Fulfilled by Amazon" in late October 2013, part Number QP2A-X-AE (AE denotes the Gen2 lights per foursevens) comes with a "Gen2" sticker. On the bottom of the box, there is a product barcode sticker, and just above that is a silver sticker "XM-L Gen2" (others have reported a gold "Gen2" sticker). When I contacted foursevens, they say this is how to tell which version you purchased. 2) Eyeball Test! ;) I've also examined the actual LED on the light and compared it to online images of the Cree XM-L2 LED, and I can confirm it looks identical to the photos - silver back, 2 wires. The old XM-L LED has green back, 3 wires I have no other flashlight to compare this with, or any special tools to test the light, so these are the only two ways I can think of to confirm which light I received. So based on this, I was satisfied that I received the updated QP2A-X Gen2 with Cree XM-L2 LED. Hope this helps!

The one I recieved through Amazon from Grogtech was an actual LED Lenser. Not a knock-off!

Good to note that nitecore just released upgraded versions of the TM15 with XM-L2 emitters putting out 2,650 lumens versus 2,450.

No, it's a Xenon flash tube like a point-and-shoot or DSLR camera would have, not LED (like phone cameras and camcorders)

These apear to be SMD not CREE. I know CREE is a better LED but in this aplication the CREE is realy not needed. I am very happy with these and have started to replace all the bulbs in my RV with them.

WLED-xHP15-TAC: 194 LED Bulb - 15 SMD LED Wedge Base Tower WLED-CWHP15-TAC: Cool White is what I order. I get the from superbrightleds .com They are great to work with. I originally emailed them to make sure these would work. They told me they would. I was doubtful but they DID work and I have been ordering them each time we add a light. Some have been working over a year.

I don't know the generation led, but they are pretty bright and very good for your money, it plugs into your 12v aux port or ciggerette lighter in your car

Yes. Sent my back twice to China, they took forever but stayed in contact with me, pleasant experience. It was the very first XT11 600 lumen. Turned out both my batteries were defected and not the light. The tail switch broke a year later. I took it apart and sodered a loose connection myself. Works flawlessly to this day. Just ordered two of this updated model.

Sorry, I didn't know there was a difference. It's whatever the seller listed. BTW, I really like the light. Sorry I couldn't be more help.

It is the 80 lux version. You can tell by plugging in the manufacturer's model # from the Amazon listing into the Philips web site's Find Your Product page. From there, you can see this leaflet: http://download.p4c.philips.com/files/b/bf48l20balxm/bf48l20balxm_pss_enggb.pdf Looking at other front light products: The 40 lux version looks like it is smaller and has a single LED with a white, front reflector surrounding the LED. The 60 lux version is a dynamo driven light.

Mine was the CREE XM-L. Not really sure about how it compares to the 2nd gen, but the XM-L is plenty bright and efficient.

No it does not. The P2 is a different battery that does not have the small jack attached to it that the LEDs plug into.

Can't say its Cree LED's, there's no way to tell. What I can tell you is the harness makes install pain free, and the thing is like lightning bright. if you need more light than this puts out, you must be blind.
