Ah, cool. Thanks for the info!!!
I just now found this post, I hope you're still watching... It looks like you've already done what I'm trying to do. Do you have all stock parts in your anglehead (I'm assuming it's the Fulton)? Is melting plastic an issue with the ROP Lo? Right now I have a 6 cell krypton running off of 8 Eneloops in mine, but I'm thinking the ROP Lo would be brighter even with the switch, which of course the krypton also has to contend with.carbine15 said:Is it wierd that I'm running 8 hot off the charger sanyo 2300's in my ROP low and it's dim as hell? Switch resistance is very high in military angleheads.
Yeah, I have read the ROP posts, but thought maybe I read them wrong for the Li-Ion version.Mikeg23 said:The ROP-LE uses two 18650s with the low output bulb, maybe the 18500s don't have enough capacity?
As for the RCR123s the pelican bulb is supposed to be a 6V bulb.

If your question was directed to my post, I am using 2 of AW's latest 18650, which are protected.Mikeg23 said:So you got the big D hi bulb to light with the 18650 batteries. I didn't even try it as I just assumed it would be a waste of time.
Are you using protected or unprotected batteries?
