if it fits what would the brightness, and run time compare to the regular lithiums?

well we won't know for sure unless we test it... but my Surefire L2 that is a 5 watt LED using a li-ion is said to get around 80% of full output... its cranking 8900 overall lux off of its review from flashlightreviews.com... i would expect it to do pretty dang well... maybe not full output but close... but this is just my theory.

yea on that page the pila only gave 60% brightness of the lithiums. wasted potential if you ask me.....what bout putting two rechargeable 3.7V 123A's? would that fry the LED?
