Okay, I have a question about mixing batteries of different voltages. Is it okay to pair a 3.7v with a 1.5v battery in series? I tried this on one of my 'cheaper' pointers to see if it would work and low and behold it did... I figured I'd either damage the driver or kill the diode by doing that but the laser worked perfectly fine. I checked the voltage of the two batteries together and they were outputting ~5.5v together so it was still in range of the flexdrive. Are there any dangers of running a battery configuration like this? The only reason I did it was because I didn't have a AAA sized spacer.
