Thank you very much. Very helpful information. Now I have to choose a 26650 cell . Shockli seems to be the highest capacity. Not many American sources though.
NKON (nkon.nl) is going to have the Keeppower 6000mAh (same cells as Shockli uses) back in stock as of August 23, 2018. I‘m not sure how much shipping (plus customs) will be to the US.
The first was Brown HD NW so i can compare both tints and emitter version. From a couple beams outside and side by side, i can tell there is quite a difference between HD and HI. The former has a wider hot spot, more flood but still some throw. The HI has a tighter hot spot and does throw further. I do like the HD beam because it is more balanced (some flood and some throw) and more useful to me.
Apart from that, i noticed the 18650 (long) tube must have a smaller OD at the tail because the tail cap is not flush as it is with the 18350 tube…
ok but why use a cell type that is not advertised that u can use? i dont get it if u really want a light for e special type of cell then why not buy something else then?
Greater flexibility and just curiosity in general I’d guess. Also if new 21700 cells are produced with greater capacity and have increased performance, it’s nice to know that there is one more light on the market that could use them.
