    ROP OWNERS: SIGN IN!! :D

    Built several but converted some to 1111. Still using 1) A 2D converted to ROP H powered by 7 Eneloops in an older style 8 cell holder. Body is NOT bored. 2) A 6 D NiMH ROP H - the CLUB. No remaining ROP LE's - all converted to something else.

    2D Mag ROP question

    Re the comment about driving the ROP with 7 AA NiMHs and a spacer. There is a way to avoid using a quad bore body. The older type Willie Hunt brass tube and pc board holders where all cells face the same direction allows 7 Eneloops (only cell thin enough IIRC) and a spacer without any need for...

    5C Lithium Conversion Questions

    I found an old style 5 cell Mag in my collection and am trying to convert it to a 64440 driven by 5 of AWs C cells. Been away from this forum for at least 15 months and am a bit rusty so please excuse what may be obvious to those who have stayed more current on hi power incans. Have run into 2...

    Sold/Expired The Nautilus Flashlight Thread

    My first "work" use of the Nautilus- an oil change at ground level in my garage on a turbocharged Lexus SC-300 that is my usual DD. To do this without spilling oil in the engine compartment requires a small drip dish and some absorber material under the oil filter when it is removed, a reach...

    mag 2 c

    Or you could buy two AW C Lions, a tailcap and an 1111 bulb (the 5761 can be iffy on two C's). Racer7

    Sold/Expired The Nautilus Flashlight Thread

    Good news. Sure hope my e-mail didn't get lost. This is the replacement I've been hunting for the Seoul, McR 20S modded P1D-CE that's my EDC pocket light. The Q5 P1D-CE doesn't fix the beam problem of the stock P1D-CE (I use it for undervehicle and close parts inspection) and I don't need the...

    Terralux and Malkoff runtime?

    Malkoff drop ins drive the LED at 1 amp and the Terralux modules drive the LED at around 550 milliamps. You can extrapolate that to relative battery life with modest correction for relative efficiency of the two units. The Terralux is a decent buy but the Malkoff is superior in several...

    Mag85 vs. ROP

    Gothed, you're the beneficiary of one of my very very rare nights of insomnia. Re charger, a pretty flexible one is the Maha CH M777 at about $80. Does lithiums and NiMH packs, though you will need to make plug adapters and get a few cell holders from Radio Shack, depending on exactly what...

    Mag85 vs. ROP

    Let me put a simpler spin on this. Your questions suggests you are fairly new to incan mods because the answers are published and generally known to folks who've built a few incan mods (my apologies in advance if I misread that). Lux and BSBG have provided you excellent references to some of...

    Sold/Expired 12AA RECHARGEABLE 3D M*G (2Nd Run)

    Are Malkoff d Mag dropins worth the $$$ ?

    "Worth" is a very subjective subject. However, there is one thing for which there is no doubt- Gene's drop ins for the mag are as good as drop ins get right now. You won't get more light or better reliability from others - his are well ahead of the Terralux type, for example, as they should be...
