No, I mean just like you pictured here, whatever that kind is. From my googling, it looks like the body of a 2 watt resistor would be about 15mm long (length of 0.688 inch and diameter of 0.318 inch), and a 1 watt would be about 11mm long. Which one does yours look like?

So, how big is your resistor?

Oh, and I'm hoping to achieve the same functionality that you have in your 2-mode flashlight. The 5-modes don't have any resistors, they just have the driver which I intend to remove. So, they resistor would be connected to the clicky and would be used to dim the circuit.
