    Modern Battery Options for Maglite Halogen MagCharger

    Thanks for all the advice. I think at this point I’ve narrowed my options down to either getting a factory NiMh battery from Maglite, or using 5 Eneloop Pros in serial. I’m leaning toward Eneloops because the stock battery may not use low discharge cells. Does anyone know for sure? Are there...

    Eneloops can be charged inside the Magcharger using the stock charger you say?

    Modern Battery Options for Maglite Halogen MagCharger

    Thanks for the advice. As far as cheep NiCd batteries, I’m assuming an aftermarket battery from Amazon will suffice? Or is there a supplier you recommend?

    Modern Battery Options for Maglite Halogen MagCharger

    Agreed, storing the light on the charger is convenient, not only because it should keep the battery charged, but it also means you know exactly where it is if you're forgetful like me! My only concern is that from reading other posts on the forum, NiMH batteries can have their service life...

    Modern Battery Options for Maglite Halogen MagCharger

    Strion DS LED upgraded with Strion DS HL led module?

    So, I went ahead and tried it, and if anyone was wondering, yes you can. You don’t need to get the HL reflector either, the original will work fine.

    Strion DS LED upgraded with Strion DS HL led module?

    I was wondering if anyone has tried upgrading the LED in a Streamlight Strion DS (dual switch) with the HL (high lumen) version? I have a Strion DS that has a 375 lumen LED. I have the ability to buy the LED and switch module for the Strion DS HL for a modest price. The HL version is 700...

    Malkoff E2T vs Surefire KE2A

    Haha, hopefully NONE. Maybe I should have clarified to avoid sounding sinister. It’s not uncommon in my job to work in the dark for hours at a time, while armed. I would prefer getting more mileage out of my batteries. Thanks for your insight. It seems like the difference between 350 and 500...

    Malkoff E2T vs Surefire KE2A

    Hi there, I’m new to the forum and and looking for some advice on selecting a new LED head to for an Arisaka body to use as a rifle-mounted light. I am torn between the Malkoff E2T (450 lumens at 12,000 candela for 1.25 hours) or a used Surefire KE2A (500 lumens at 13,000ish? candela for 1.5...
