Re: WTS: D40Avn - Compact AA Lumen Monster

Read selfbuilt's review concerning lithium AAs in this light.

will do that when I am back on my computer in a few days. I really bought the lithium AAs for other purposes.

google is my friend - interesting and weird. Free dura cells from work it will be....

I thought it was weird, too. Apparently it has a really sensitive voltage range.

Great overall review from selfbuilt, though. He doesn't gush often, but this light tickled him. It would be fun to see his review of a Vinh-ized copy.

I might summit a K40vn/Tn31vn for review someday to selfbuilt just for fun! :)

If he got time of course

You should ask him anyway. The worst he can do is say no, and if he agrees to do one, it would be a coup.

According to selfbuilt, you have to run L91s down a bit before you can get turbo or even high. I guess that would effectively preclude 3.7V cells.
