Anyone with the milling/lathe experiance care to share ideas about making an oval shaped tube with a sealed switch at the bezel end threaded for the SF M6 head?
If not there may be a battery pack that currently has the output for the M6, its the Makita #G6766 NI-MH 9.6v stick that retails for $49.95 and the #G6770 Quad Volt NI-MH charger for $69.95 at Grizzly Industrial
It is a new hi-output NI-MH replacement 9.6 v stick battery.
Another thing to do is remove the batteries altogether and manage a way to either use them with an extension tube if they are the right diameter or make an adapter to use the Makita stick battery itself as the flashlight body.
I would apply some stick on grips or use some heavy heat shrink tube, even that way a switch can be installed under the shrink tube in series with the + lead output of the battery.
Either a battery "skin" or a dedicated housing this looks like a good mod.
