Your thoughts on Malkoff MDC AA

[PoliceScannerMan]

Blah, H17F limits you to only using li-ions! I want full 0.9V-4.2V input.

Give me that voltage range with all the features of H17F and I'm in!

As you wish :devil:

My M31 in VME head does not work with my 2AA body. It will if I put a brass washer in there. I don't care for that. Is there another way to make it work. Same thing with my older Malkoff MDC heads, like my TAC light. I don't want to be fumbling with a washer in the dark if I need to do a battery change at work. My 2AA is a farly newer version. It has the darkened clip. The inside of the body looks anodized. Thanks.

MDC 2xAA desperately needs some knurling. The way it's now is a deal-breaker.

also is the module drop-in, can it be replaced with something else or is it sealed in there?

 

[thermal guy]

Potted and sealed

 

[flatline]

But you can swap the head for a malkoff dropin in a VME head.

Yes, the tube should be "E" series compatible.

 

[Hemicrusher]

So, can the MDC HA 2AA be used with the 1xCR123 MDC body tube?

Just trying to understand the compatibility between the models.

Thanks in advance.

yes you can

 

[Hemicrusher]

yes you can

Thanks!

But this is where I am confused. Malkoff states on their site, DO NOT USE A RECHARGEABLE Li-ion CELL. The voltage is too high. for the MDC HA 1AA. So, won't the CR123 also exceed the voltage, being they are 3.7V nominal?

 

[thermal guy]

A CR123 is a primary 123 cell. 3 volts. A 16340 rechargeable is 3.7 volts.

I was looking at RCR123.

Batteries drive me nuts. Protected, unprotected....diameter, length, voltage between primaries and rechargeables etc.
