Hey CDF! I wish I learned about this place sooner. I've had my beloved maglight 5D for quite a few years now and its once again time to do some maintnence, but this time around I thought Id go for some upgrades. This is my daily and I'm really looking for some conservative recommendations: I don't need the top of the line or bleeding edge technology.
I guess the main limitiation I'll set is I want to retain decent battery life. In "stock" form, I was more than happy with the battery life... so I guess that could be the benchmark? Ive read a little and it seems like everybody is using a Mag Charger system, so maybe I should look into one of those.
I want to upgrade my bulb, which may lead me to upgrade my cells, reflector, switch, and glass. I'm kinda asking a big favor of who ever will humor me, but because I'm so unfamiliar to this whole game, I think Ill need a helping hand to get all of the parts set up and working together nicely.
Maybe I'm over thinking this. I just want my Maglight 5D to be brighter and still retain reliable and respectable life. So, what should I do?
