    Building An LED Desk Lamp Need Some Advice

    Your design is awesome! I would buy one of these (even though I'm sure it wouldn't be cheap). If you are making a demonstration model, and you're interested in selling as an object d'art let me know... To be constructive: It seems to me you could just house the power supply inside the base...

    SMJLED in an E1E?

    I don't plan to run this on a Li-Ion cell. As I stated above, I am just concerned that a single cr123 primary might have too much juice--necessitating the driver used in the PR model to handle larger alkaline cells (with their lower resistance). I'm not knowledgable enough to know if a 3v...

    Introducing "PES2"

    Re: Introducing "Guess This" Well, you all have guessed my battery holder contact plate idea(which was suggested to me by the ID of the originator, the hole in the middle, and the semi-circular cut-outs in the outer ring)...so I'm going to go with a pie-in-the-sky guess: This piece is the...

    SMJLED in an E1E?

    I want to put an SMJLED in my E1E. It seems like a simple, elegant, inexpensive upgrade for this handy little light. I plan to drill the bulb out of an E series lamp assembly, and perch the LED on top of the "stalk" (the height seems just about right, but I might have to shim it for...

    MagCharger85 in 2D length?

    Are the LiON cells the larger diameter cells that people bore out their light bodies for? Or are those just any very high capacity cell?

    MagCharger85 in 2D length?

    I had not read that thread about your regulator previously, AW. The idea of regulation is exciting to me. Just the fact that you can get constant output from the light is huge, in my opinion. I think I'll need one of those regulators when you have them to sell. You guys have been very...

    MagCharger85 in 2D length?

    Of course, thinking about a Tiger11's benefits takes me back to the idea of an MC11 (so many abbreviations!). I'll try the MC full-length first, however.

    Thank you JS! That was an excellent review! Of course, now I want a Tiger11...

    If you can get 800 lumens out of a 2D body, what do you estimate run time to be?

    MagCharger85 in 2D length?

    Wow, I didn't realize that the 1160 MC was that bright! How many lumens can I realistically expect to put out the front end with a Mag85 or a Mag11? I have seen people throwing around numbers, but I don't know how optimistic they are.

    Is the advantage of a soldered battery pack lower resistance?

    MagCharger85 in 2D length?

    So, the MAg85 doesn't really work well on 8 cells? I know I've seen some posts about 8 cell -85s...but I wondered how they would compare to the Mag11. If I'm looking for M6-ish performance, would I be happy with a Mag11? You're probably right that I should try my MagCharger as a regular...

    MagCharger85 in 2D length?

    I'm no machinist. I had planned on having someone else cut it down for me. I'd like to play around with doing that sort of thing myself--but I think I should start with a $15 maglite--or some plain pipe.

    MagCharger85 in 2D length?

    I need some advice on my first flashlight mod. I have a MagCharger that I want to modify to the Mag85 configuration. I think I understand what's involved with that from reading threads here. I have a lot of questions, however. I appreciate your patience in reading this thread, and covet...
