Gotta say, I've now purchased 3x BE3 and 3x BE1.5, and they're all great. Everything I've tried on them works great, except in cases where I stuck some weird battery sizes inside... but even then, a homemade spacer did the trick. The knurling is IMHO just right, providing a useful amount of grip without turning into pocket-shredding sandpaper. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif
Balrog, you rule! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif
BTW, not sure if it's already been mentioned, but I noticed that a pair of CR2 cells fits perfectly lengthwise in the BE1.5 body... right now I'm running a KL4 head with Z52 LOTC with this configuration, and it makes for what amounts to an L4 Jr., smaller in size and shorter in runtime, yet just as bright as the original! It's a great combination. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
