R123\'s and all my lights
Ever since I got these R123's (4.2 v each from JS
Burly) I have been interchanging all my Surefire parts around.
I initially ordered a set of Jon's R123's to use two in my Surefire 6P with the P90 9 volt bulb. It as bright as my 8NX in a much smaller form factor. The R123's really renewed my interest in my 6P. Here's the setup.
But now I find myself using one of these new batteries in my E1 bodies with a KL4 and KL1 head.
I think I now need many more of these rechargables to keep myself going. The R123 works great with the KL4 head. As many of you already know, the L4 runs happiest with 6 volts. Two lithium 123's seem to provide the best brightness and run time. The single R123 provides 4.2 volts (nearly 1.5 times their lithium counterparts) and the L4/KL4 head runs near as bright this single rechargeable. Jon, when you get some more in stock I am really going to need many more. The arrival of these has really renewed my interest in my lights.
