I got an email from another agencies officer “I hear you’re the Flashlight Guru. Can you get my new Streamlight Protac HL 5-X model 88081 any brighter or run longer?”
I don’t have one, no one I know has one. I’m not going to offer any electronic mods as it’s a work light not a toy. But the idea crossed my mind does it have enough room in the battery tube for 20700’s? Current 18650’s for this light are long to handle the built in cell chargers and are multi sleeved. So if anyone has one could you post the interior tube diameter. Streamlight still uses cheap 2600 mah Chinese cells so protected NRC18650GA is a quick improvement.
