I mean, is a 3-cell Mag bulb (either krypton or xenon) rated for 3.6V (i.e. 3X1.2V, which is normal for other bulbs) or something else? The reason I am asking is because the instructions for the Mag light says that you should use alkalines rather than NiMh cells which leads me to believe that the 3-cell bulb could be rated at 4.5V (3X1.5V). This could also explain why it is relatively easy to over-drive Mag bulbs (for eg. using a 3-cell bulb in a 4-cell light). Anyone knows the answer?
