I believe you are mistaken.

LEDZeppelin told me specifically that using 3 18650s would not keep the setup in regulation and the initial current
to the P7s would be less for my setup (which uses a Shark/Remora) than with 6 cells.

In other words with 3 18650s, even initially, the P7s are not pushed at spec.

He told me you need the extra voltage provided by 6 cells to keep the Remora in regulation.

He bench-tested my LZ-3-P7 module prior to sending me my turnkey light and these were his observations/results/conclusions.

After all he designed the modules himself, so if anyone should know, it should be him!!

This is why I am sure that the output tested by MrGman would have been even higher than 1700 lumens
if you had used 6 cells in your setup.


I should have asked MrGman to test it with 6 17500 6S Carrier:oops:

MrGman has sent his sphere away now and Nailbender is the new owner and it would be more difficult for me to get the M6 tested again....

If you PM Nailbender I am sure he will be happy to test your M6 LED ZEP drop-in. I will wait untill MrGman makes another sphere and drive over for testing.
