LifeHacker posted (or maybe re-posted) an article on improving a cheap flashlight. Thought those here, might enjoy it.

Look up a ROP mod to make your mag lite shame anything you can buy for under $150.


tl;dr replace each D cell with 4 AAs in series to get 20v, then over-volt 12v bulbs to drive them at around 2000 lumens for ten minutes on a charge.
