I have done short run tests with my KL4 head on both a single rechargable CR123 (about 1400mA) and on two primary CR123 cells (about 950mA).
I am not saying that it is going to be "normal" to always run the KL4 unattended (say to light a room after a power failure), but after 5-10 minutes of running on top of my desk (just pointing up) with me not touching the light, my KL4 gets VERY hot. I can still hold it in my hand, but barely so. This can't possibly be good for the longevity of the KL4.
True, in my hand I do help with the heat disipation, but it seems to me that maybe the KL4 is just too small to properly dissipate all that heat.
Who else has found their KL4 run this hot?
