P1D CE w/rechargables

[scott2907]

Hi - I'm considering a P1D-CE and intend to use it with a rechargable 123 cell. Has anyone used a rechargable in a P1D and if so, what battery and how did it go?
Thanks for your help

3.7v RCR123's will only let the light function in turbo and strobe. 3.0v RCR123 will allow all modes.

With either type of RCR's, you will get the same brightness, but less runtime as compared to CR123 primaries.

To clarify, the low medium and high levels still function, except that "high" or "turbo" light is emitted from each of these levels. If that makes sense.
