Fenix P3D power requirement question

JohnfromMD · Jun 28, 2007

Sorry, but I can't get the search engine to work.

Can the P3D handle two RC123 batteries? I only found one review and he said it is designed for Primary cells, use others at your own risk.

I use RC123's in my P1D and don't have any problems.

Thanks,

Yep, P3D no problems with RCR123 cells. All the modes work properly too.

Edit, nearly forgot, some batteries may be a tight fit. My Ebay 3.0V ones are okay.

Confirmed they work fine.. Batter Station are a tight fit, AW protected cells fit much better..

Actually, 2 x AW R123 750mAh cells are supposed to be the best rechargeable option for the P3D.
It doenst mind the higher voltages at all, it has a buck circuit.
4Sevens has actually tested them well about the 8+ volt rating.

Where do I get these AW cells I read so much about? Does Dealextreme or Fenix store sell them?

Thanks,

Dont think DX has them, but the Fenix Store sure does.

... and Lighthound and direct from AW on these forums (check the Marketplace).

How about a PILA ICB charger. Does anyone know where I can find one?

Thanks,

just received some ultrafire protected 3.6v cells and they do not fit the p3d well at all.. Super tight fit.. I would stick with the AW cells..
