    finally put 2xLithium AA's in my NG500 minimag.

    Re: finally put 2xLithium AA\'s in my NG500 minimag I wanted to try a 14500, it's odd that it wouldn't light up, you'd think it would, atleast briefly...

    finally put 2xLithium AA's in my NG500 minimag.

    Re: finally put 2xLithium AA\'s in my NG500 minimag it's lithium AA's, don't they have something like 1.7v? That's around 3.4 volts total, on an L bin, which means that voltage is well within the safe zone AFAIK. Plus the NG isn't 100% efficient so i'd assume it's getting more like 3.2-3.3V.

    finally put 2xLithium AA's in my NG500 minimag.

    Re: finally put 2xLithium AA\'s in my NG500 minimag Well, there's always a slight curve in all the graphs I've seen, though not as much as non-current-regulated stuff. Plus, don't lithium AA's have a slightly higher voltage? I figured this was what was causing it...not sure though, I really...

    finally put 2xLithium AA's in my NG500 minimag.

    finally put 2xLithium AA\'s in my NG500 minimag. I finally found some energizer lithium AA's and put em in my minimag NG500. And what can I say, it's brighter than ever. And it lasts too. I was dusting out my computer with it's help last night and it was running for probably 30-40 minutes...

    Nextgen 750 in a minimag?

    my nexgen 500 in my minimag gets warm but it's barely anything. The only time I even notice is if I'm holding it, let go, and pick it up again. And I use it a good amount of the time, yet I've only noticed it once or twice. It takes a pretty long time for it to get to that point, and it's...

    Nexgen 500 Vs Badboy 500?

    how hard is it to get a 20mm reflector into a minimag? I really want to try it but I don't have any kind of tools to lathe down the inside of a minimag or anything...

    looking for a key ring

    well seeing as I don't have much to begin with (arc-aaa, the knife, house key, and car key) I don't think that'll be a huge problem. More than anything, I hate it when whatever's on my keychain is hitting my leg while I'm driving. That gets really annoying...

    looking for a key ring

    I plan on putting everything on a small sized split ring before I put it on whatever method I choose, and thus the added flexibility, I figured, would eliminate problems like that. Of course it's hard to say without actually trying...

    looking for a key ring

    I'm thinking of going with the quicklink 2.5mm or 3.0mm here: http://www.berkeleypoint.com/products/hardware/ss3ql.html http://www.berkeleypoint.com/products/hardware/ss25ql.html They're a little bit smaller than the pear link but follow the same idea. I'm not sure which size to get, as the...

    looking for a key ring

    that pear link seems really well made. I plan on putting everything on a small diameter split ring, well, everything that needs one at least...I figure i'll leave the arc and victorinox on their split rings as they both come with one...anyone know which diameter split ring the arc-aaa came with...

    looking for a key ring

    So I'm looking for a key ring to attach my arc-aaa and victorinox minichamp to, and of course, my keys. I want something which I can release things from easily, but not so easily that things would be falling off it... I've seen the kind with the bulb-shaped-things that fit into a track, and...

    different ways to use a nexgen sandwich

    [ QUOTE ] snake said: hello everyone the nexgen650 sandwich in the shop is TX1J .. will J-bin too low for li-ion ? I want to cut the AA-minimag to 1AA lenght to run with 14500 [/ QUOTE ] that's actually what I want to do, but I have a NG500 with an L-bin so most likely I'll be able to pull...

    Help me pick a small AA torch.

    I just got a nexgen 500 sandwich and put it in a minimag, I'm extremely happy with it though I can tell you it's not the cheapest way to go. I wanted to have the ability to customize and mix and match components, so this was the best way to go for me.

    Bad idea to use Nextgen BB in 2-stage Fire~Fly?

    Re: Bad idea to use Nextgen BB in 2-stage Fire~Fly my only experience with something similar is trying to run my nexgen 500 off of a single AA (I was bored.) It wouldn't run off a slightly used one, but did off a fresh one, at much dimmer output. I didn't notice any flickering, but I didn't...

    Why the interest in lower wattage lights???

    well, does mouth-abilty count? I can easily work with my AAA in my mouth...(no one wants to touch my Arc-AAA) but my mini-mag+lux3 sandwich is a bit too heavy... ok seriously though they do have luxeon modded AAA lights and all but the run time isn't very practical for most people. I just got...
