Just wondering... earlier in this thread you were talking about getting a SSC P4 into your Coast. Did that ever happen? That will make a real difference when you put it up against the D-Mini.
Yep, sure did! Plus I've sold quite a few with that mod. Here's the thread: https://www.candlepowerforums.com/threads/157634&page=1
The 123 mod should be interesting, but you're gonna get less runtime. On AAA's, the SSC modded Coast pulls 1000 mA. On a RCR123, I'd expect 35-40 min runtime. On NiMH AAA's, I'm getting right at an hour. You should get an independent channel NiMH charger. I'm using a Titanium TG-2800. You can throw anywhere from 1 to 4 batteries on it, all different states of charge if that's the case, no problem. It charges and terminates each cell independently. No more trying to match cells before putting them on the charger. It (or something like it) is the perfect match for any light using 3 cells.
