Hi,
I’ve come up with a “plan” for a kind of hack: I ordered some AAA dummy cells and a 3xAA battery box, so I’m going to try to mod one of the dummy cells and connect the wires from the battery box to the +/- leads on the dummy cell. Then, I put that modded dummy AAA cell, along with 2 more unmodded dummy cells into the original 3xAAA carrier. If that works, I’ll just glue the 3xAA battery box to the back of the original 3xAAA battery carrier, then I think I should be able to run the headlight off of 3xAA instead of 3xAAA.
I have a bunch of 3xAA Eneloops, with much higher capacity that the 3xAAA Eneloops :)…
Edit: Hmm. I actually bought 4 of the dummies, so I could also mod the 4th one to hook to an 1x18650 battery box when I find one, and then I could use either 1x18650 or 3xAAA?
