I just got the parts to put my ROP together and turned it on with the high bulb so I could run my new Titanium brand 5000 mah batteries down and cycle them. Well it burns pretty good and then just 3 minutes later the light goes out. I know it couldn't possibly of been from hot off the charger batteries since I charged them about 2-3 weeks ago and they've been sitting since. I must of just got a bad bulb unfortunatly. I have the low bulb in now and it's coming on an hour and it's still burning very bright.

I think I'll hold off on another package of bulbs and just use the low for now. Great service from lighthound though, and got a neat little keychain light for free.

If you don't mind a bit less light you can try the 7.2 volt pelican bulbs for the nicad big D - still outputs 610 lumen but they'll be much more reliable
