[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 4316826, member: 44288"] I started out my carrer with a Kel Light with 6 C batteries. Then the Kel light rechargable in the car. My personal light I carried is my old battle-worn Surefire 6R I bought in 1980 converted to the 6P when the extended batteries quit charging. I also changed the tail piece switch to a momentary / on switch instead of just momentary. In 2010, I changed to the LED because after about 50 times dropping it at $18 a bulb, I got damn tired of essentially making payments on my flashlight. I bought another flashlight a Fenix UC35 that was incredible but I lost it. Oh well, back to the Surefire. [ATTACH type="full"]504922[/ATTACH] I just did a little Googlefoo. I looked up the 6R. It has been discontinued. I had rechagable battery packs and a body extension. The batteries were charged by a charger with leather type metal snap ends. If I can find it, I'll add pictures. Found it. [ATTACH type="full"]504929[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full"]504928[/ATTACH] Useless until they make new batteries. [/QUOTE]
