I fully intend to overdrive a white 5-watt Lambertian on 9V (as soon as I get my hands on some), but can't decide between a larger light like a Maglite 2D using 6AAs, or a smaller light like a SureFire/Maglite 2C using 3x123s.
The handiness of a smaller light would be offset by the cost of the lithiums, while the lower operating expense of a light running on AAs would be offset by carrying a bigger light.
If it cost the same to build either, which would be a more desirable mod?
