Pila 150S in McLux 3x123a pack?

[Pi_is_blue]

I was wondering if the Pila 150s batteries will fit in and work in the McLux 3x123a battery pack. I was thinking of running my Mclux PR DB917 in this configuration so that I wouldn't be burning through 123a batteries as fast as I am now. Any problems with this setup? TIA. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif

I have run this combo before. The Pilas fit fine, but you may need to build up the solder blob on the Downboy to compensate for the cells' flat positive nipple.

Any idea as to the runtime?

No idea, sorry. I was running a LuxV/DB750/PRT. I would guesstimate you will get between 1 - 1.5 hrs of regulation based on my experience with the Pilas.
