I think a Quark MiNi with li-ion is a good candidate.
I found these threads:I can't believe no-one's mentioned the Minimag AA Aurora mod yet.
The mighty ROP-High (3853-H if not the 3854-H) should now be theoretically possible in a 2xAA Minimag! :thumbsup:Got a PM from AW saying that he will be releasing a 14500 IMR in a few weeks. It's rated for 8C (5A).
I'd say, hide a 6P with a malkof drop in inside the oldest D sized battery flashlight you can find (you will need to remove all the innards), preferably something colorful and made for children (even better if it has dolphins on the side)
No need to go hiding lights inside of other lights:
Just get an old Eveready Captain or ROV Sportsman, they're everywhere. Try for an older version with metal reflector and glass lens. Slap in a ROP-LO bulb, make a 2 x 18650 battery holder, cut tailspring to fit.
Learn to say with a straight face, "it's just an flashlight I got from my grandpa."
Why would anyone want a sleeper?
They have no desire to have a "gorgeous" light. They want to spend their money on output, runtime, and suitable beam quality, not a fancy looking host.
Mac Santa found his way...
Who says you can't have a gorgeous light without output, runtime, and suitable beam quality?
It just costs more and no one here said they were on a tight budget.
If you spend $800.00 on a custom light with all the bells and whistles the only way it will be stolen is if someone breaks into your house because if you take it out of your house you will hold onto it like gold.
And your situation with your quality speakers with cheap grills seems like the theif was too dumb to pop the grill and actually look at the speaker behind it. Not all theives are dumb you just got lucky and with a dumb theif.
edit: Why would anyone choose a sleeper over these "GORGEOUS" lights...
