That is good then. I can at least see some usage for this pack now. Will look just nice running a 3v Makai with it.

I am thinking about one for my VME ti head just to dip my toe in before buying a full McGizmo

I believe it's an option. I'm not sure if there's an extra charge. If there is it probably wouldn't be too much.

Etched clip vs. standard clip.
Hi NBP.
Thanks for that image. It is a nice clip. Just dawned on me that I can use the clip as a way to identify which LE is in the host. (If you have more than 1)

What if you lathe the Mule head down to match the body? It looks like there is enough material to make it match the body. Does Don make a CRI Mule head? That would be neat paired with this body.
The 1xAA pak is E-series geometry and this does restrict how small any head can be. I don't have any plans at present for different heads for it. I have been logging some time on a prototype AA converter (1.5V) which is pretty cool and anticipate being able to add it to the offerings within the next couple months or so. I will wait until I have a production version of the converter before getting into its details. The Nichia High CRI LED's are an obvious option for this pak and the new converter since the max drive current dictated by the power supply will be below the capacity of the LEDs.

Count me in on one of the AA LE light.

Brian. You should jump straight in. But beware, there is no getting out after that.

Once you do it, you will agree with me that it is the best decision you will ever make. Make it soon.

With the availability of the 1xAA pak, it sets the stage for another McGizmo milestone. If the 1.5V LE comes to mature fruition, it will enable a large swathe of new users to enjoy the McGizmo lights. I do know for a fact that there are some people that do not want to be bothered with CR123 as it may not be easily available in where they reside or just too cumbersome to handle RCR123. Of course, one can say there is the 2AA pak. Many including myself found that it is a bit too long to EDC unnoticed.
But with the single AA, it is a no brainer for anyone to use it.With easily available AA battery found anywhere in the world, McGizmo lights will become more appealing to the commoner or non flashaholics.
All I can say is that Don is going to be a busy man.....

Hi Don,
Do these Paks use the EPDM o-rings also? If so, what size are they? I forgot about how my Nyogel likes to eat EPDM and that I had swapped to Viton on my 123 Paks. Might be time to order some o-rings for this size Pak. Thanks for your help.
