C cell Malkoff

I'm about ready to pull the trigger on a Malkoff for my 2C.

I work patrolling a campus at night and want something bright but portable. I carry a Fenix P3D Premium or a SF G2 w/ Dereelight drop in. The Deree is more light and throw than the P3D, but only single mode.
I would intend on the malkoff to give me the extra reach in certain areas, and to help with intimidating "visitors", making them move along. Funny how a bright light will do that to some people.

How about some input to push me over the edge.

I have a 3C Malkoff and it gets crushed by my Romisen RC-T6.
The catch is, you have to get 18650 cells and a charger to run the Romisen, where the Mag can run common C cells.

I have one in a Mag cut down for 1 18650 cell. Awesome little light.

NOt going to break a Malkoff and if you manage Gene stands behind his work 110%.

I'd recommend you go with 3 cells. It will be bighter in this case due to the circuitry gene uses. The Malkoff 2/3 C is highly recommended. It throws very well. Great heatsinking and reliability on this baby plus it will give great runtime. You might consider buying accupower LSD C NiMh cells to go with it.
