I have an LD01 as well using an eneloop. i read the manual and the working voltage says up to 1.7. i googled 10440 and it says 3.7V. i am a battery noob so i am confused. how is it not fried? does the brightness/runtime gains increase by a lot with the IMR 10440? Thanks.

Wow, I didn't even remember I already wrote in this thread.

My 6P with a Malkoff MC-E neutral at 400 lumens definitely qualifies as a sleepers.

It would seem that most of today's good quality 1X123 flashlights can be considered a sleeper since they beat the heck out of anything store-bought.

The torpedo is definitely invented to be a sleeper light with a practical side.

It's not complete yet, but my new (yet already worn and bashed) mattte black L2 with a recessed bezel ring (a la classic 6P) with a single-mode XM-L T6 (circa 500lm) drop-in will surely qualify.
