Hi there. I'm new to the forums. I have a few flashlights already. I just recently got the 2C and 3D 3W LED bulb from Maglite in the local store. Now that I've got both units on power saving energy LED's I'd like to get my 2AA and 1AAA flashlights on LED's. More the 2AA right now because I bike a lot and I need something to signal to the left turn and right turn traffic when they're turing so they can see me as often drivers seen to be in inattention with the radio/looking the other way.
I use a 2C w/maglite 3W retrofit LED right now with 2xAA batteries in C cell adaptors and this works fine when I'm riding to beam into the drivers window so they see me. I'm not just relying on the 2C but my bike has front/back lights and I've got a reflecting vest that covers me front/back and the sides. I'd just like to have a smaller package so I can dummy cord to the backpack then sticking the 2C in the back pocket. Seeing as it's getting colder now the fingers get a bit colder so reaching back to the backpocket for the light does not always work.
What I would like to know is what is the brightest LED mod I can put into a 2xAA maglite? Does anyone have links to this? Also what is the run time as well. I am primarily using the light for a quick on/off spotting while riding and not always on as I have my own main headlight. Can someone list me say from the most powerful to the weakest mods with links? Thank you in advance for any help. I appreciate it.
