Can Pelican 1910 run on 10440s?

Can the Pelican 1910 be safely used with 10440 batteries? What about the Streamlight Microstream?

I am about to buy some 10440s and don’t want to ruin these lights. I also have a ITP A3 that will run on 10440s from all I have read but wondered what other lights would be safe to try them in.

Thanks.

Does anyone know if it is safe?

I saw a youtube vid with 10440 in a Streamlight Microstream. I am going to try it in my Pelican 1910 and see what happens.

If it does not say so in the specs I would not try it. I”d give this post some more time & let someone maybe give you a definitive answer. When in doubt, don”t do it.

Well, someone has to be the first guy to try and it looks like it may be me. From what I hear, most AAA lights will run 10440s.

I don’t have my 10440s yet so I am able to wait till I get them so if someone knows why it would damage my new 1910, let me know please.

From what i can read, there is practically no China-made production 1xAA light which does *not* run on 14500's.

i do have a died worm lying around. hehe.

I think both of the above are dangerous assumptions. Klarus for example states about the XT1A: "14500 lithium-ion batteries will destroy the light".

I'm sure there are plenty others that will get fried by 14500s.

okok, true.

( the Klarus P1A clearly runs on 14500. even officially by Klarus email support. i feed 14500 in my P1A all the time )

I fried my tail switch on my Rominsen RC-G2. Lucky for me, I found a seller who has the switch for less than $2

I would think 10440 would fry many lights. Why should lights designed to work with 1.5 V be assumed to work with 4.2V?

That’s what I am trying to find out. I know some will and some won’t but I have no idea which ones are which. In any case, it is a moot point because I am not going to try it on the 1910.
