I'm preparing to build a ROP...

I can't comment on the quality of your cells, but I think you have too long of a light for a ROP. Generally, ROPs take 6 nimh cells, and a 3 D light will take 9 AA cells in a 9AA>3D carrier. When using AA cells, most people use a 2D light.

Your 3D light would make a great 1185 light. Those are usually built on 3D lights, when using AA cells.

Why wouldn't a dummy battery make the 3 D just like a 2 D?

It will be given a home in a 3D Mag. I know I need the lens, bulb, dummy battery, and battery holders, but I already have the batteries. They are Energizer rechargables, 2300 mAh.

My question is, will these batteries be good enough? What kind of performance can be expected from them, run-time? etc.
