Not sure if this has been discussed, but would it be possible to fit 3 123's into a Mag 2C body assuming and appropiate tube was used to make up for the difference? Three of the 123 cells should only be 5 or 6 mm longer than the 2 C's.

I was wondering if that wouldn't give 6D or better performance (ssuming the appropriate bulb is used) in a much smaller package.

Yeah, I've been wanting to get a 2C Mag for the past week in the hopes of doing exactly that Jon.

If not Maglite brand, does anyone know of a similarly good candidate for the mod? Perhaps a bit smaller.... I investigated Bison 2C, but they use bi-pin bulbs.
