I’d like a 12D.
That is interesting.
I thought I read something a while back about the 7C being the largest produced as a promo or something.
Keep in mind the 12D is more of a myth, but it has been confirmed that they took custom orders for any length. That along with employees who would make extra on their own time makes for some interesting maglites. For instance there is actually a 4AA mini-mag. It was never officially produced but some how it still got made.
I wouldn’t call a C mag rare since they still produce them. 5C or 6C maglites are rare.
I said kind of rare, they certainly aren’t everywhere you look.

Fair enough, if anyone wants to order a 2C-4C zbattery has them.
I just talked myself into working on that 2C Mag. I’ll start right after the holidays.

Sweet, I might have to pick a 4C up, thanks.
Do you know if the tube diameter/length in stock configuration would work with 3x26650?
It depends on the 26650, but most likely not. :( The 26650s are a tad bit to thick in my experience.

I already had to bore a 2x16340 light to fit a 16650. I guess I’ll pass on the C-mag then
You could just use 18650s, there isn't that much of a difference between 3400 and 4500. (18650 v. 26650)
True, but I have a pile of 18650 lights and only 1 26650 light, would like another.
I sold a friend of mine a 2D LED Maglite that I got on Black Friday. (Of course for no more then I paid, he is a friend after all ). He was so thrilled with it, he GAVE me his old 2C Ican Mag. Said he had no use for it being that it was obsolete. I will mod it some how but boy is that form factor neat. C mags a kind of rare.
Nice project — love the Cs.
And @scaru: the 7Cs were mass produced, though I’m not sure what kind of quantities. (I got lucky and found 12 NIB last year.)

Yay, I’m not crazy. :party:
Also, 12 NIB? Holy crap!
…Also, 12 NIB? Holy crap!
I guarantee you that more words than “holy crap” came out of my mouth when I realized what I’d found.
Now, when you say found. Literally found or found being sold?
He found an old store that was selling them. (Had in a warehouse)
Out of curiosity, was it very profitable for you?
Thanks to those who bid on this auction. I kinda hate to see the old 5C Mag go, but it's going to someone who will actually use it (or mod it).
I'm not sure if the winner is a member here or not, but I'm sure it's going to a good home.
Is it just me or did it go for more than the buy it now???
i thought the BIN was $50? could be wrong…
Was it? I though it was 40 with 10 dollar shipping. I may be wrong though.

You are correct, scaru. I just threw in the 'Buy It Now' for the fun of it. All in all it was a success and it will ship out tomorrow.
