Like Djozz already said, not a good idea at all. These red LEDs have a very low forward voltage and are way more sensitive to heat and overcurrent than SST-20 for example.
You could try using a 10440 3.2V LiFePO₄ battery (if these exist) but still the odds are quite good that...

djozz:
ouch, these are 2V leds that should not handle more than 1.5A. so on a 10440 either the led gets way more current than that and blows, or if the driver is made for it on average 2W of heat must be dissipated by the driver which is rather steep.
okay thanks for answer, i realized it was kinda a stupid question afterall im used to the olight i3t it can run 10440 so ill stick with it then.
Some statistics per today...
78% fulfillment rate of Sofirn's MPQ,
96 people interested so far,
156 pcs accounted so far,
equals 1.63 Sofirn C01R per each member :-D

One for me in each tint (if there are more than one).
For now, I would count this as one piece since I cannot guarantee that Sofirn will be offering two red tints.

That would be much floodier than the SST-20 C01S right? It sounds like a nice substitute for the discontinued floody C01.

Don't be shy djozz, you know the driver blows up… ;-)
Yes, LH351D is bigger in terms of the LED’s die size, resulting in a floodier beam.

OT:
Some time ago someone here posted a source for honeycomb optics. Along with the SST-20 @2700K …
…it is a nice warm and floody light. Sofirn should offer this TIR optics as option.

also what will the color of host be, same red as previous ?
I try to get us a different host color (see two designs in the OP #1) to have more diversity with regard to the C01S.
In for one please…thanks!
