I was asked by a friends mom to make her a 2C mag mod.
A 2C or 3C mag is the largest she can handle comfortably.
I was first, thinking of 2 C cells and a Fatman driver, with TWOJ emitter.
But, the fatman wants a 2.7Vin Minimum, and thats about 1.35V each cell.
They might drop below that under load. She also wants to eventually get rechargable C cells.
Would 3 C cells be too much with a fatman?
I know the fatman can handle that, it will go into direct drive, but, would 3 Nimh c cells blow the TWOJ ?
I would use an nflex, but she like the potimeter (knob) on the side for adjustment, better than the button interface of the nflex.
Plus, the nflex wouldnt have alot of Vin to work with, not much to buck.
What do you guys think?
I need 2 or 3C size, dimmable, and use easy to get batteries.
