    Need advice on an old Fivemega (I think) Maglite conversion

    Replacement parts for this light are no longer available, which is a shame, I don't consider it to be particularly old and really like it. I've managed to fix the battery holder for now at least but it seems the bulb is toast. Started looking around for WA1164 or 64430 bulbs but not having...

    Question about voltage vs amps

    I ended up ordering the standard batteries from Orbtronic. Price was comparable to Aliexpress. Thanks again all!

    Question about voltage vs amps

    Thanks again. Seems like battery choice is a bit more complicated than I realized. Related question, I've purchased a Convoy L6 that requires 2 26650 5200mAh batteries, but noticed there are now 6000mAh 26650s available. Should I go for the higher rated battery?

    Sold/Expired 4AA to 1D, 8AA to 2D, 12AA to 3D M*g

    Hi, wondering if it's possible to just buy a piece of these. I have an old 2D conversion, the bottom plastic piece has broken. I don't mind buying a complete 8xAA set but I notice the white version is not available anymore, and it seems to be the higher voltage version I need. I would've just...

    Need advice on an old Fivemega (I think) Maglite conversion

    Looks like that's it, thanks! Just need to send him a note to ask him why the White 8AA to 2D is 9.6v and the Black is 4.8v. Randy

    Need advice on an old Fivemega (I think) Maglite conversion

    Hi everyone, I am having some problems with a converted Maglite I bought many years ago. Two issues actually but one I need to fix before I can do anything about the other. I managed to break the lower battery holder (it's a conversion of I think a 2D Maglite to 8 AA) and can't find a...
