Cool, dude. Could you describe the details of the 3AA light? Is that a regular Nichia white led? Who makes the light?
I built a similar 3AA light from a flea market find. The original light was an old Minimag spin-off- aluminum barrel with a rear switch and a focusing reflector. I removed the non-functioning rear switch and made the it into a twist-on-off. In the front, I removed the reflector and built a 3led module from plumbing parts. Works great.
yclo, I did *there* quite sometime ago, it was one of my very first modification on LED. I am stunned with your 2L modification. What a great work! I wish I could have good hands like yours. Did you put any resistor on 2L? It looks real bright. I love the white one.

Yes there is a resistor in the UK2L mod. The leds are resistored down to about 30~35ma each. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
