Here in Hong Kong I just picked up 3 7W Golston flashlights and 9 3V rechargeable (IC limited) 123A Li-ion batteries and 2 chargers for them from a local shop. Now I am busy testing them and I have noticed something very interesting about this light... the body gets very hot! I am talking after only a few min you can feel it heating up, and after about 15 min it is already up to 37C (to hot to touch really)... The LED itself and the batteries both stay cool to the touch. Are other people experiencing this kind of thing? On another note the quality of the machine work seams nice enough and it does look to be a real Lumilides LED. Everything has double o-rings and I bet it really is water proof. I am thinking to mod this light; it seams to have plenty of space to add a regulation circuit to it.
P.S.
Don't expect them all to be the same, I got 3 and they have 3 totally different beams. One is bluish and a bit dimmer. One has a very tight spot when the head is totally screwed down. And one has a bit of a flood when the head is totally screwed down but can be adjusted to spot.
