How many mA's are being pulled from batteries, measured at tailcap? Are you using nimh cells?

Hey Bill,
On 4D size duracell (settled), I get 3.3 amps...as the LED's are from the same batch (matched) I would think 825ma to each of the 4 leds...
if you used NIMH I think you would get close to 1amp per led...
but as NIMH D are very $$, I just use ALK's...
the whole unit is NEW maybe 1/2 hr use @ the most...
I first made this unit as 4C alk, in a 3D host, then changed to this to give better runtime...
thanks
