Does anyone know if it is ok to combine a Pila 168s with a SF123 to use in a SF 9P with the 3w LED drop-in? I don't want any problems mixing types. Thanks for any info. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif

Hello Socom,
AW has it right.
To expand a bit, the Pila battery's voltage is around 3.7 and the SF123's about 3 volts. If you mix them, the Pila will try to charge the SF up. This could result in overheating and could trip the protection circuit in the Pila.
You will also end up with reduced performance...

Thats what I was afraid of. I will just have to get some 150s Pila's as well to use in the 9P. Thanks for your help.

The Pila 150's seem to do really well with the P90 lamp assembly, from what I've heard.
