I'm powering a Malkoff M30W with a single AccuPower LSD C cell (1.2V, 4500 mAh). No, it's not the brightest thing I've got but it works pretty well so far. Anyone care to venture a guess on what kind of runtime I should expect?

Thanks in advance!

If you measure the current the module is pulling in that setup, you can plug the numbers in here:

The way that particular calculator works, you would have to play with the LED current to get the battery current draw to match up with what you measured.
