OK here's what I have in mind. I love camping and well its pretty dark out there. I have a LED head lamp but it only a 1W lux star that runs on 3 AAA's.
Now, what i'm planning to do tonight (seeing as my new Fatman converter arrived) is swap my 5W Star into the headlamp and use the fatman to give me more juice.
the problem I see is how long (or short actually) will 3 X 750 mAh AAA's last feeding a 5W Lux?
should I run auxillery battery packs and strap those to the headband (2 - 4X AA packs, 8 AA's total)and risk looking like a tool or can 3 AAA's cut it. say an hour of crazy *** light?
