I am notorious for starting a bunch of diff threads & bugging people relentlessly--I promise I won't do that here. This only thread I'll start for my questions.
Wanting to make a small light weight flashlight mod that will produce a 6v hit. For now, I'd like to just get started on ordering & buying the beginning things I'd need.
Wondering if I can use a small penstyle flashlight like this:
DealExtreme: $2.99 Pen Style Medical Flashlight with Clip (2*AAA)
or do 3 volt batteries come in that size?
or does anyone have a quick link to a light weight (even plastic--I don't care) flashlight that accepts 2 CR123 batteries or something like that?
Or are the ultrafire batteries about the size of a AA--surely I could find a cheap flashlight that fits 2 AA sized batteries. (no, of course I wouldn't actually use AA batts, but most of those purple ones that folks use look about the same size but with higher voltage)
Thinking that might be the easiest way to go--start with a flashlight that already takes these types of batts. All that would really need to done is wiring the atty connector, right?
