What exactly do people perform to lower resistance in a Mag? Is it modification to the switch - tailcap - both? How much is there to be gained by this mod? The cap spring in a Mag seems pretty hefty to me compared so say a McClicky switch spring. The wire is much larger dia. and appears that it would flow current easier than a smaller one. Do resistance mods give you free lumens and a brighter light with the same battery/builb combo?

Bingo....at least one lingering contribution that AWR made to the community. I saved all his pages if he ever deletes them.

This comment begs the question from a CPF newbie: What happened to AWR?

I missed the excitement and, from reading, I'm not sure anyone completely figured it out, but I'd start here:

Often wondered the same thing. :thinking:
He started out good, doing some great electronic chip work, and fell behind. Unfortunately a lot of people paid him $30,000 for a final product, and he just stopped working on it. and never refunded. There is a thread in the Jeers/Hall of Shame about it.
