I don't have much special thoughts myself but I think it seems like a nice and cheap host.
Is there any extra benefits with an extra battery? If not it's simple to just solder a wire in across one of the holders.

I might buy that, a rkcstr driver can run off of 6v but not 4.5. nice find

Might be a nice host for blu-rays with a linear driver design - the head looks a bit small to cram a decent driver and the back of an aixisz in though.

it LOOKS like you could fit a 9 volt square battery in it what do u guys think

 

[LiveRock]

Yeah, if somebody buy this, please post your findings:

1. Will it fit a 9V battery?
2. Will it fit a driver plus the Aizix module?

Thanks!

I ordered it this monday! (found it bevore this thread by extra searching 4xaaa lights)

When arrives = pix come

it could be really great host for BR with RCKSTR driver if it will hide 9V battery..  but one important question isnt it only plastic????? :-/ :-/ :-/
i havent noticed that it is alluminium body




updated ;

all right guys i did little research and by my theory there is no way to fit 9V battery inside... :'( :'( :'(

Uh... forgot about my promise... sry  :-[

I got this thing last year.

Its a great bright torch, made of at least metal, should be anodized alu. but there is not much space. of course a rksctr should fit, even if the aixiz would stick out a bit. dont found a easy was to dissaseble it...
and dont wanna try it with force cuz i like it and will use this as a light for my bike - its clearly over the 10 lux minimum and the mount is very stable

I have a 48xUVLED 4xAAA. It will not fit a 9V.
