Hi there, I heard that Sub C batteries can be used in the Streamlight Stinger LED.

Can anyone verify that it would work with no modifications?
I am planning on buying 3 Sub C batteries and trying them out. I assume I would need to find 1.2v Sub C cells.

Stingers don't use the tail end terminal to carry current. On side switch models there isn't even a contact, on DS models it's just a signal channel for the electronic switch. The Streamlight battery has both terminals on the head end. They're only about $17 on sale so I'd stick with OEM.
