I have three mini-maglights that I know of. Probably more. However, right now, I am looking at 1 blue one and two black ones.

The blue one does not fit Eneloop Pros. They stick enough that I wouldn't be able to get them out.
The black ones do. They slip right in.

The blue one measures 3.71 OD
Both black ones measure 3.75 OD

I don't have any regular Eneloops so I can't say if they fit the blue one.

All three are mfg by Mag Instrument. Can't see why a mfg would do this....

It's a shame, b/c I am switching everything to Eneloop pros and I would therefore throw out the blue one, except that I just noticed that it's engraved with my name and my anniversary date (1992). Guess I'll have to keep that one too, huh?

Do regular Eneloops have a smaller OD? Anyone know what it is?
