Hi all. I have a on old 3D Maglite that hadn't been used in years. I swapped-out the incan bulb for a Terralux TLE-6EXB MiniStar5 LED and am happy with the upgrade. I now want to run it using my Eneloops and a 1AA to 1DD adapter. My problem is that the diameter of the tailcap spring is larger than the diameter of the Eneloop in the adapter, so no contact is being made causing the light not to work. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Frank A.

This is what I do. Take a pair of pliers and bend it as best you can to the middle of the hole.
