First off I am new to the site and to flashlight modding. I am trying to upgrade a Fulton military 2D light. I am putting in a 3watt LED and was wondering if the 6AA adapter would fit work in the light and if it would provide better/more power then the 2D, or if there is a better option that you would suggest including a different bulb.

Thanks,
Steve

[mdocod]

Hi Steve,

I am not familiar with the specific light so can't speak to whether the adapter will work in it. As I understand, there may be quite a few variations of fulton lights out there that were used in the military (angle and straight versions, C and D size, perhaps others). If you can post or email or PM a couple pictures of the contacts in the head and tailcap that may be more revealing.

What sort of bulb does it take? PR flange?

As far as 6AA vs 2D. Generally speaking, 2D cells, if compared on equal chemistry terms, will have more stored energy than 6AA cells. The reasons that people convert to 6AA cells is either to get the higher operating voltage, or, in order to use specifically desirable cells only available on AA size or some combination of the above.

Examples: Someone who has a NIMH charger for AA cells, who does not want a bulky charger for D size cells, or doesn't want to buy the cells, may opt to convert, or someone who wants to drive a 6 cell bulb in a 2 cell host, or someone who wants to be able to use Energizer Lithium primary AA cells (not available in D size) in order to get longer shelf life may opt for a 6AA with 2S3P wiring configuration.

Have any dummy D cell size? I want to run one 32650 on a mag 2d. I just need one.

[H-nu]

Can I get a 9AA to 3D parallel made up for use in a 3D maglite? Do I need to modify the stock battery tube to use these adapters? Thanks in advance!

Let me know how much with shipping to Canada and provide a paypal address.

Cheers!

ghadlock,

Order shipped out last week, should be there very soon.

------------------

Have any dummy D cell size? I want to run one 32650 on a mag 2d. I just need one.

From the first post of the sales thread:

"

All other sizes are build-to-order. Pricing for build-to-order dummy cells/spacers can be figured as follows:

.......

Dummy cells 27-32mm diameter, up to 70mm length: $9.00 each

$15 minimum order size please.

Dummy cells ship free when purchased with an adapter; Otherwise...

Add $3.00 for shipment to USA/Canada for any quantity.

Add $5.00 for international shipping of up to 10 dummy cells.

.......

"

I assume you would want a 32550 dummy cell to offset a 32650 length cell in a 2D. (combined length of 120mm to match the normal 2D cell configuration). That is no problem. $15 minimum so that would be the price for a single (includes shipping to anywhere). Let me know if you plan to use the dummy cell at the front or rear of the host (I would use a different design depending on the intended position in host).

-------------------------------

Can I get a 9AA to 3D parallel made up for use in a 3D maglite? Do I need to modify the stock battery tube to use these adapters? Thanks in advance!

Let me know how much with shipping to Canada and provide a paypal address.

Cheers!

The 3S3P (3.6V) version of the 9AA is actually in stock ready to ship right now. (I made a couple extras). No modification to the host is necessary.

Total is $46.50 with shipping, PP is mdocod@gmail.com

Hello tjhabak,

Sorry, the 12AA 6S2P configuration is not something that is available. I can do 12AA as either 4S3P or 12S. Let me know how you would like to proceed (refund, change order, etc etc).

Regards,
Eric

[tjhabak]

Let's go with another 9AA to 3D, then (9S), for a total of two, and no 12AA. Thanks for the fast reply! Then just refund the extra 5 bucks whenever you get a chance. Thanks again, Tom
