I have a 200+ lumen drop-in for the 4D Mag but want to increase the lumen level to 1000+ lumens with 1 hour runtime.
Want to stay with LED, what are my options? If I can buy such a beast, that would be simplest.

Want to run 4xD Accupower 10,000 mAh cells but am open to 18650s, can you run 3x18650 side-by-side in the Mag?

I think I saw some tri bore maglites on cpf somewhere. But not sure what battery configurations that was. 1000 lumens for a maglite I dont know of such a dropin. however, there are many great modders on this site that would set you up with a sst 50 or the like.....for a price of course.

There's a P7 I think its called, boasts 900 lumens, saw a few beam shots next to the fusion 36 drop in
That was nicknamed shower head. The fussion has 400 lumens, and its all flood. P7 might
Should be close to what you want

how about 4xIMR 26650s, SST-50 LED with der witchel heatsink and taskled H6flex driver?

easier might be the same batteries powering an SSC p7 using a shiningbeam driver 2.8A?

Use the 4 Accupower 10,000 mAh cells
3 in serie or more Li-Ion would be too high voltage for this.

This is along the lines I was thinking as the P7 is not 1000 lumens. But I have to say that the P7 will be a pleasing amount of light. Make your money go further and use the SST-50, more lumens. There are a lot of battery combos and whatnot, you just have to decide. The H6flex should be the best thing since sliced bread once its out ;)
