Hi guys.
I have a couple old AA Mini-Mags I want to convert to LED. I don't know what to get.
There's a Nite-Ize LED kit for around $16 that includes an end cap clicky. But it's only 30 lumens. Seems kind of weak, considering the stock xenon/krypton bulb is 14 and the new updated AA LED Mags are 69 or 97 or 272 lumens(big difference from 30L). All the new mags only run about $30.
Then there's Terralux. They advertise 140 or 150 lumens(depending on new stock). They run $16 also(no clicky).
I know instinct tells me to get the Terralux 150. I don't really want the clicky, I like the tassel and I don't think the new ends have a hole.
Is there anything I should consider? Quality? battery life? Or how these new components will work with Eneloop Rechargeables that are only 1.2 volts.
Thanks.
