[willrx]

I just received a 7C Maglite that I bought from a fellow CPF'er and wanted to share and find out if anyone else had one? Thanks.

Welcome! It nice to see another Georgian.

7C u modding it with Lions???

pics pics pics ...... please

 

[willrx]

No pics yet. I've never posted a pic here. How do I do it? What types of mods are possible with 7C? Thanks.

7 x C LiIon = 25.9
Use an Osram 64640 (24V, 150W). On 25v AWRs hotrater puts it at 158W and 6900 lumens. Less than 6.5 amps.

Mag-Lite no longer supports 7-cell models. Don't do any mods that would damage anything specific to the size.

 

[roadie]

is it an orginal series or a 'add-on' maglite ???

modding it may 'increase' its usage and likeness;
not doing anything to it, well, anyway up to u ?

cheers

Don't worry, no dangerous mods to this one. Checked with Maglite and it was made in January 1982! I'll post some pics when I learn how to do it here.

What is an 'add-on'? All I know is I emailed Maglite and the SN shows it was made in '82.

Thanks for the info.

Nice find Will, I'd love to get my hands on a 7C Mag. I've got a couple of 6C Mags in HA. Definitly want to see some pics!

I use Photobucket.com to post pictures. After you sign up for your free account, you can use it to "Choose File" on your computer for the pics you want to upload. Be sure to pick the appropriate size first. For example, "Uploading Options : Max Image Size Message Board (640 x 480)" is what I use.

I'm guessing that he means an original 7 cell versus a light with extensions.

Niteowl,
Thanks for the 411 on posting pics. I'll try it a little later at home. BTW, what does a 6C in HA look like? I have a couple of those also (not HA-yet). I do have several 5C's and wouldn't mind doing something in HA. Where do you get this done?

Definitely not an add-on then. All one big long piece.

I'm glad my 7C will have a new, shiny and bright future.
I'm missing it though and now I am left only with my old 6C

Keep well,
Joris

22hornet is the previous owner of this jewel. I'll just simply say-Thanks for letting me own it. I'll take great care.

On the top of the page where it says upload and has a space for an address on your hard drive, hit the "browse" button next to it and located the picture (on your machine). After it's been located and you've clicked "open," it'll be all set and you just click "Upload." After it's uploaded, you'll see it on the photobucket screen with three tag lines below it. Just copy and paste the third tag line down, the IMG tagline, to your post.

Edit: LOL, I see you've figured it out. When I clicked on this thread, there was no photo on the top post. It appears it was added at the same time I started posting!

 

[willrx]

Thanks. Pic added to original post. Yes 22hornet got it all the way from Belgium safe and sound-cheers!

While we're having Mag-Lite fun, here's a 7D next to a 6D.
