 Thanks for the reply (and the replies from the other's as well)  On e of the above may be bright enough as is.  But, they have a smart driver circuit that adjusts for the incoming voltage.  I suspect that over-voltage to try to increase the current will just fry the driver circuit.  But, with the 3 Watt bulb being $14, and the Nebo flashlight being $70, the real flashes seem to be the way to go.
