Okay, next month, I will be in the woods for two weeks with no way to charge batteries. I went there last year and between rain and forest shade, solar chargers are right out. I've been looking for a simple battery box mod that can use three or four AA Alkaline batteries and a KR808 adapter. Even D cells would be okay but not preferable with a honking big flashlight, but I'm not sure which mod is best for the conditions.
Just for experiment's sake, I soldered up a cannibalized 808 battery tip and hooked it to a 4AA box. My soldering works, but I don't wish to have it explode from lack of regulators/resistors. What would be the bare minimum of added parts to make this rig safe?
Every time I search, I begin to wonder if I have adult A.D.D.
Your assistance and advice would be greatly appreciated.
