But I are there any other build's I could do and also with 6x one a clamshell heatsink for aixiz is good and all but.... I want to know battery life.

How long would one 9v last powering a 6x and how long would one 3 volt cr123a rechargable last.

cr123a is flexdrive and 9v is rckster

also what mA would be a nice life for a 6x and what would the power be?

Thank's that all I can think of so post away I guess.
