Hi, can anyone give me the best Vf for a Direct Drive Trilux. I will be using a 2-D host with 3c alkaline cells or I may decide to build it for 2x 18650 Protected cells. I will have to weigh the run time, brightness options before selecting which light to build, but need to know what stars to start looking for.
Thanks,
Keith
