I own several Fenix P3D torches, and absolutely love them. I am never far from one.
One of the uses to which I and my riding partners put our P3D's is as a bicycling light, held to the handlebars with a Two Fish Block. Other riders are always amazed at the output for its size, especially compared to many expensive (and heavy) dedicated HID bike lights.
Anyway, late this summer and so far this fall, we've done a great deal more night riding than we have in previous years. The net result is, the three of us go through six CR123 batteries every time we ride (two/each). This has gotten to be both expensive and wasteful, so I'd like to switch to rechargable 18650 batteries.
I've 'searched' all morning, but not found my answer, and I'm hoping that someone here would be so kind as to educate me or direct me to the proper thread so that I can find what I'm looking for. What I am looking for is a flashlight:
- The size of P3D, up to the size of a SureFire 6P, at the extreme largest.
- White (not cold blue or warm yellow) SSC or Cree LED.
- 200 lumens or more at the LED.
- Best possible flat output regulation on (1) 18650 battery battery.
Thank-you for your help.............Frank
