Does anyone have one on their E1e? I just bought the E1e yesterday and love it's compact size but would like the option to get a bit more light out of it if I need to. I'm just having a bit of trouble justifying $45 more than the flashlight itself cost me. Maybe I should just buy another light? Thoughts?
 
I'd suggest one of Steve Ku's drop ins as well if you want to go LED.

If you want to stay with an incan but want a bit more output you can get the lumens factory EO-E1R for 90 bulb lumens for about 25-30mins, or the HO-E1R for 50 bulb lumens for 50 minutes, they're both rechargeable set ups though.

For it's purpose as a small back up/EDC light the MN01 puts out enough light, I've been using mine for a bit over a month and the battery ran out yesterday so runtime is acceptace.
 
got a kx1 and a kl1 to replace the incans from my e1e's...my issue was less about output and more about the long runtime you get from led's...

they are not exactly cheap, so you have to factor if the expense is worth the added value...it is to me so i got them...and i got the kx2 to top off a e2e too...no going back to incans ever...

Those drop-ins are pretty great, probably the direction I'll go. Thanks for the help guys!
