Just change the connectors if it's a big problem. That said, the batteries from Halcyon for SLA are more expensive but not extortionate.

My experiences with the Pro 3 have been nothing but good. It's just kept working and working (when I remember to charge it up) and I can see it continuing to keep working and working for a long time. Fits neatly on the side of my backplate and has only failed from me breaking the cable, caused by misuse. I wouldn't go for a more expensive Halcyon torches, seen a lot of problems with other models, but not with this one. Doesn't have the focus which used to focus into the blub and break it, doesn't flood, doesn't really ever stop working. Which is nice, because it's had a hell of a kicking in several different configurations and directions in the last few years.

Digs.
