Thanks for the reply, guys. I'm surprised I missed the maglite thread with all the browsing I did, but I was looking at a lot of stuff, so I may have numbed out. I do recall seeing one mod somewhere that used some radiator hose to fit some 123's in a c cell with a higher voltage bulb, essentially turning a 2-C into a 6-D. That sounded pretty cool. Don't know the run time, tho.
I'm hip to the led bandwagon. tho not as big time as yous guys. My first led was a 3W luxeon Dorcy from Sears 2 years ago, which has been my go-to light since then. But it's kinda big for EDC, which is why I'd like to mod my 3AAA minimag, which fits just right in my back pocket. Can't leave home without it. That, a pen, a credit card and a swiss army knife will pretty much take care of things. (not counting a shotgun, but that's a different thread.)
Like I said in my first post, I ordered a Romisen to check out the newer generation of lights. A cheapie, I know, but I wanted to start small and maybe work my way up the food chain. I'll post a report after I get a chance to use it a bit. In the meantime, I have to decide what to do with my Mags, as they have been loyal partners over the years. And besides, you never know when you may have to smack someone (I live in Chicago.)
