P7 flashlight remote battery

I'll appoligize in advance. I know this has been discussed, and I even know that I saw someone's setup, but for the life of me I can't find it through search. Anyway, I'm looking to replace my triple P4 headlight, and am thinking that a single P7 head would do nicely. The trick is I need to be able to get ~12 hours runtime, so I'll need to run a remote battery pack.

I would expect to be able to remove most of the battery tube part and just retain the flashlight head and tailcap and solder my leads directly to those. That should be pretty easy.

Does anyone have any specific experience doing this same process? And are they any gotchas that I need to be aware of?

Thanks,
Steve
