Hi all,
I'm a real newbie when it comes to flashlights, so this might sound obvious to some of you.
I want a simple "regulated" bright Mag by using ni-mh instead of alkaline cells. My plan is to put 8 AA cells (9.6V) into a 2D body and use a 6D bulb (regular or xenon). I plan on using a 8AA battery holder from Radioshack and maybe do a little trimming so it'll go into a Mag body.
What do you guys think? Would the holder fit into a Mag body? I know I can get a AA holder from the dealer section, but ordering from the internet is a PITA from up here.
Any other ideas of obtaining a SIMPLE (I'm a newb ) regulated and bright output from a Mag body? The Diamond leds are not really regulated. The Everled is but is too weak IMO. I still don't know how regulated the MAG-LEDs will be. But Ni-MH cells at 1.0A should give an almost flat curve.
Thanks in advance.
