Ok...so, I have a handful of IMR 26500's and love Maglites. Have metal reflector, high temp UCL lens, and Fivemega G6.35 socket kit.
Ideally; I would just stick it all inside a 5D Mag and power it with a 24V input bulb via 6 IMR 32650's/26650's but trying to keep the size down and such.
I was really hoping a 100watt halogen or 150watt halogen bulb would be enough to ignite newspaper, just haven't tried it yet.
12V bulbs would be awesome since that means I could use a 2D Mag host, but limited to 100watts of power
or
15V bulbs would mean I can use my 3D Mag hosts (4 IMR 26500's) overdrive a bit and get awesome 150watts of power.

For the record. I have a 250watt Transformer and 400 watt bulb too. Just hate loading and unloading 6~9 IMR 18650's because those battery carriers it came with are soo sloppy its just silly and upsetting. Love the simplicity of just loading cells the traditional way.
