Overdriving the SLA at 7.2V produces ALOT of output, over 1000 bulb lumens. I'm talking about the high output versions in both cases; there are corresponding lower output versions for each type of Big D; they're no slouch, either.

That's the ROP LE, but the bulbs may demand more current than your salvaged cells can provide.sig-in-tx said:Any one have any better ideas to drive the bulbs better? I was thinking about a couple of 18650a I took out of a old laptop, but being a unprotected cell I'm a little gun shy.
