quick response please!!

I'm headed down to Radio Shack to get some bulbs for my 2C Mag Mod with 3X123's what bulbs should I get? I remember someone saying I should try the 5 D cell mag bulb, I was running the 6 cell bulb but blew it. What would the Voltage rating be if they are not listed by numbers of cells.

Thanks to all, Metro

6 cell bulb 7.2 volts
5 cell bulb 6 volts

Sorry, quick response is not easily come by, on Labor Day holiday weekend.

Best Bulb for 3x123 Modded MAG-2C Keep in mind that with a bulb like the Carely 1499, your 3 123's maybe driving this bulb at more than 13w output, which could result in the stock Mag plastic reflector melting.

please help on mag bulbs

I think the 5 cell RS krypton bulbs are KPR112's (or 113's). I don't think I've burned out an overdriven krypton bulb in my 2C mag conversion yet and I've run a couple sets of 123 lithium cells through it.

KPR-112 is what you want. You'll be amazed.

I used 5 cell bulbs to good results.

I remember reading that bulbs flash could be due to low resistance. I had a washer at the butt of the last cell, that probably add some resistance?

Pr 20 is what you want in the tailcap for when you blow your regular 5, or 6 cell bulb.
Pr20 is 8.4 volt rated at 500 milliamps. (usually anyways)
Good luck.
Otherwise, if you have a wad of cash burning a hole in your pocket,
get an www.Inretech.com helios for that. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ooo.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/evilgrin07.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/aaa.gif
Cheaper still would be an Everled from www.brightguy.com or www.ledsupply.com
An everled will definitely get you your money's worth out of your precious cr123's. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif
