I recently purchased a Mag 1D (cutdown), and I just love the form factor and feel. It's the size that a Mag 2D ought to be, without the switch taking up so much room!
OK, all that aside...I am hoping to collect a few suggestions on how to best mod this unusual light into a long-running mod. I am not a machinist, nor am I particularly handy with a soldering iron, but options including drop-ins or relatively straightforward mods are welcome. If something like a Dorcy AAA step-up board could be used, I'd welcome some details about such ideas.
I've done a search on Mag 1d cutdowns, but not found too much of use, other than that Nite-Ize drop-ins at least work, even if not efficiently.
If you need a bit more detail, let me say again that I'd mostly want to take advantage of the D-cell's ability to outlast an AA, moreso than increased amperage/brightness. But if you have a brighter solution, I welcome it, too! My main desire is to remain with the 1-D format, rather than going for multi-cell carriers.
Thanks! There is power in collective thought!...-wholeflaffer
