Here's the new kid in his jacket. I yielded to the temptation and tried a Cree bulb in there, with a 3.7v rechargeable battery. WOW! I will try it with a No 8 cell, when my 4.5 battery arrives to take apart, but the Cree does make it a very useful little torch, and the bull's eye is fantastic. Such simplicity.
