Here's the setup
2 RCR123s
both measuring about 3.6v pretty freshly charged [they are 900mah batteries]
in an E2D body, with a valiant adapter and a Malkoff M60 light module.
Runs for about three minutes, then quits...no dimming no nuthin'.
But...put in a pair of primaries into the E2d, although dimmer, it runs and runs.
Take the RCR123s and throw them in the solarfoce or an inova or a dspeck pocket rocket
and they run fine. [solarforce and dspeck are one cell lights, inova is 2 cell]
Is it that the malkoff simply draws more current and the RCR123 batteries are getting old?
Is this a balance issue [which I THOUGHT I covered because I measured to be sure that voltage was same on batteries when i put em in, although I am not sure this means they are truly balanced]
I have this feeling I am missing something, just not sure what!
Thanks a million!
