List of 18350 flashlights (currently available)

Hi beam0!
Sorry, didn’t notice the price limit at first, so I added all I remembered (even those you already had in the list :person_facepalming: ).

About your questions and remarks:

BLF X6 - Yes, I guess it can take the shorty tube you linked to (bought separately). This was the original thread where I saw that: 18350 Thrower

Blackwater SR71 - it is sold by Banggood! I don’t know who makes it, but it is sold here (non-affiliate): https://www.banggood.com/Blackwater-SR71-3xCREE-XP-G2-1000LM-USB-Rechargeable-Mini-LED-Flashlight-p-1069791.html?rmmds=search

Nitecore P05 - Hum, I guess I was deceived by a thing on AliExpress, so I can’t confirm this can take 18350 batteries. Sorry for misleading!

Niteye - Yeah, their site is quite…empty! Maybe they are reformulating it after the Chinese New Year. Still, those 2 lights I mentioned were found in AliExpress stores. Sorry, didn’t notice I repeated the EC-R16 model! Thanks for changing it!

Solarforce L2M - Yes, it can take 18350. The original light with the 2 tubes takes a 18650; with sorther tube it takes the 18350 and 16340s as well! It seems to be a popular light around here, despite having some years already!

SS35-1 - The link of Neal’s deals is not working for me as well… I don’t know what happened. Maybe a website/ service reconfiguration as well? BTW, freeme showed a similar light here.

Sorry for not posting the links originally and thanks for this effort to put this list together :wink:

Can you confirm it will accept 18350?

Sorry, it doesn’t take 18350s! I went to read again my initial information and my eyes didn’t read well :person_facepalming: :person_facepalming:
I hate when I do this :expressionless:

Please forget about this one!

No worries! I’t good to check all possibilities!

Solarforce L2M added…

With all of the new tiny models released in the last few years I totally forgot about this “stalwart” flashlight when I made the list, an ever popular model when I first got deep into flashlights back around 2010 (I never ended up buying one). A timeless design, it’s remained nearly unchanged throughout the years and still available today. (I still want one!)

Probably the first “stubby” flashlight and one of the first to include 2 different tubes to accommodate multiple battery sizes 18650 / 16340 / 18350
I never gave much thought to the fact the L2M fits an 18350 as well as 16340. I’ve only recently became fascinated with the 18350 size lights, mainly due to the new Aspire / Vapcell batteries.

The latest version L2M (complete flashlight) includes both tubes and an XP-L V6 Drop-in module.

Or you can just buy the host and add the Drop-in of your choice (L2 or L2T head and tail)

There are plenty of “P-60” drop-in choices available, including XPL-HI, XPL-HD, Nichia 219C, and even XP-L2, and various tints as for most well.

I always thought it looked awesome with the L2T head.

MecArmy PS16 added to list.

Saw this on BladeHQ, An upgrade to the PT16?

JETBeam TC-R1

Edit: Sorry, missed the “currently available” unless someone is selling one…I’m hanging on to mine.

Ya that’s a beautiful light! But unfortunately discontinued and no longer available, same with the rrt01.

Yes the idea of the list is to provide help for purchasing decisions, but no problem to mention the discontinued lights here, just can’t add them :wink:

For the Eagle Eye X2R, 18350 tubes for the Convoy S2 can be used. Then it is possible to charge the 18350 in the flashlight.

Ultrafire, this thing out of stock now, can’t find model # on mine. Nice light with mode memory and gold bling ring.

Sold as 16340 but fits 18350 easy.
Think it was marketed under Uniquefire also

Thanks for the list, great job

Are there any 18350 lights that come stock with a 90+ CRI LED and No PWM? (Fet=PWM)

Are there any 16340 lights that comes stock with a 90+ CRI LED?
The only one I can think of is the 0Light S1 Mini w High CRI XP-G3 (Green Tint)

This was posted on M4D M4X blog yesterday: “my dear friends! Neal has some problems with his PayPal account, so i deactivated his shop until everything is working again.”

Yes i am running 18350 Keeppower in the FiTorch ER16 stock tube. However, i did have to put a small magnet on the battery for it to work.
If it had a little bigger nipple on the positive side, it would work without a magnet.
Thanks for the list of 18350 lights!

Thanks for confirming about the ER16! And thanks, I’m happy to do the list!

For Skilhunt H02/H03 it’s the Astrolux S1/A6 tube 18350 not Convoy. (I corrected in the list)

H02 with S1 tube confirmed here: Short 18350 tube for Skilhunt H02 and H02R: are you interested?
H03 with S41 tube confirmed here: (post #12) Lightest 18350 flashlight? - #12 by ZozzV6

But you cannot buy the S41 tube by itself, only the S1/A6 tube, but should be the same since the 18650 tube fits all of them S41/S42/S1/A6

Hum, supposedly the Wuben TO10R should be a High CRI flashlight (using 16340 battery), but it doesn’t seem to be a High CRI light, as the TO46R also wasn’t.
Me and bilakos10 reviewed the TO10R recently.
Too bad it doesn’t take 18350s, as it would be a (even) better light! :frowning:

Thanks for the information, I was not aware of this! I hope Neal gets back to business soon! :wink:

wow, pure deception

(maukkas image edited by slider note how the red sample looks brown):

PSA: If in doubt, always skip skip lights with an XP-G3.

I find it silly that Wuben and others, post pics of green things to demonstrate CRI… that is so wrong! What is needed is Red things. otoh, if you’re trying to hide the green tint of an XPG3, then green things are the way to go.

now look at the green tint around the edge of the beam in this Wuben photo (across the ecotec logo, on the mans sleeve, and on the battery cable cover

to test for CRI, I like to shine a light on red things, including the palm of my hand, and foods like steak and salmon.

Unfortunately, almost all the lights in this thread have green tint… and are Low CRI

I know it’s in the “sub list” for “18650 lights that the Mfg. offer an 18350 tube for an additional cost” But I thought I’d point it out:

Jaxman E2 series High CRI

.

Also the Convoy deep carry clip fits:

.

I have the triple Nichia 219CT 5700k, it has absolutely no green tint and it renders the reds and colors very well. Although I’d like to try the 4000k someday.

.
It’s my first High CRI flashlight, and one thing I’ve learned by it is the neutral lights (that I always thought had great color rendering) actually are just tinted light, yes the greens and browns appear better looking than with cool white, but you’re not really seeing the true colors, you’re seeing colors under a slightly yellow “Tinted” light. The Nichia shows the objects true color as you would see it in normal light. Reds, browns and greens look as they should.

excellent option!
