2 Stage for E1L?

[Turt]

I have a seoul p4 in my E1L running stock circuit. I'd love to make it a two stage... anyone know what kind of resistance I need for the tail cap if I use primary cells? Thanks!

I also modded my E1L with a Seoul P4. I picked a 60 ohm tail cap resistor because I wanted a pretty dim low setting.

TaschenlampeMann, how low is low? Is it like a single nichia light? or lower? I appreciate the info!

Why don't you get a few resistors and try it for yourself.
A few values from 10 to 100 should not be more then a $ or so.
Or why not a variable?
Just put them in series with the battery (between the back of the battery and the body for example).
Measure the resistance with a dmm when you have made up your mind.
Quality of the resistors is not important as long as you can measure their value.
Be cretive.
