sorry if this is the wrong forum, I've been searching for about an hour through threads and have found conflicting answers. I just purchased a surefire backup thinking i could use my aw 3.7 rechargeables on it BUT after searching threads most people say you can not use these as it will cause a flicker. Other threads point out you can use aw 3.0 rechargeables with no problem, other threads say rechargeables are a no go period. if anyone with experience can chime in id appreciate it. I'm on the fence about buying a totally new 3.0v setup, buying 20 primaries or just selling the backup and picking up an EDC that can take my aw 3.7 :tinfoil:
