Oh my god. I saw the ... this. I saw the this. 540 lumens at 700 mA. I was briefly dizzy, while I contemplated what this could do to my under-powered, under-appreciated Pelican flashlight. Whadda ya think guys, would the driver hold up? Would the stock reflector work not at all, crappy floody beam or laser-thrower? Would it choke the poor driver to death?

Whadda you guys think?

9.45 Vf would need four cr123's, correct?
$38 each.
Ships in 10 weeks so you have plenty of time to determine which driver would work best.

Or I could switch it to RCR123 cells, if the driver would handle it. Or I could find a driver to do step-up (!) from 9 volts
