I've seen a few posts referring to the addition of a 3rd AA battery to the MM using retro'd with a BB500 LS.
Who carries a body (Tube) extension or a new body that would accomodate 3 AA's?

I beieve that one of our members could make you an extension tube for your torch..he has a CNC lathe! I just can't remember who it was...
You need to specify the diameter, length and thread type.
...Or, send him the torch!

CNC Dan is the fellow to talk to. He's done some of these adapters, and people seem happy with them.

I had to jump in here. This is my first post to
the group so I hope I'm doing this right.
Running around on the web, I came across a site
that has a metal 3AA body. It's located at
www.4ledflashlights.com
I have no idea if these are well made or just
junk, perhaps someone else might be familiar
with them.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I made the extention tube. I intend to make a bunch more as soon as I can, but I am very bussy at work right now and can't sneek in one of my own projects.

When I do I will run off about 50 of these(or more) and offer them to CPF members after contacting people that have e-mailed me.

I need to be running a job that uses 3/4" aluminium and will run late so I can get to my own stuff.

When you get around to this, I'd like a bunch of them. What do you charge for them?
