Here's the original thread.. And I'm sure there might be some links in there with beamshots, reviews, etc..

I have mine setup in a 2D Mag with 2 of Litemania's (3AA --> 1D adaptors). Giving me 6AA's in a 2D Mag.. it's plenty bright, plus I used Energizer E2 Lithiums. :)

Hey thanks for the link!!

Wonder how the SL propoly 4aa lux would compare to the ministar5 P4 in a 3c mag.

It works great on a 3d, its as bright as a p1d-ce @72 lumens, it will probably be the same on c, just less runtime. If you have a 2c, you may want to try using some heater hose and 3 cr123a for a phenomally bright light, I did this setup with 3 cr1231a in a 2c and its brighter than my p1d-ce on turbo mode, and very light with lithiums, but of course thats if you don't mind using them.

If you choose to order it, I hope the unit shows up working properly. I recently ordered 3 TerraLUX dropins for the 3-6D Maglites, following an order of 2. One of the three was defective... they expect the purchaser to pay return shipping for the defective unit.

I'm waiting for an answer from them before I decline the charges on my credit card.

Well I went ahead and pulled the trigger on one, will get up lots of pics/beamshots as soon as it arrives! I tried to order a glass lense for my mag and it seems flashlightlense is out of stock (for mag C&D cells).
