18350 version looks nice.
I think it looks strange. Maybe it looks better without the rings. Kawiboys version for the win for now.
Separate so we can use it if we want or not. One more thing, COPPER please!

Also:)
I would say that the rubber, removeable ring would be better for me. I’d buy one for each of my lights.
Removable ring is better I think. By the way, what are the current best 18350 cells?
It would be a good idea if those could be sold with the tubes.
The rubber one looks better.
Best in what way? I use Vapcel 1000mAh (purple) in all my 18350 lights but the largest available capacity is what I base my choice on, there may be a higher current option if you want more output at the cost of runtime.
I guess both high drain and high capacity leaders. I haven’t used anything but 18650s in quite a while.
Not you, someone else.
KawiBoy1428: JasonWW:Someone posted their home made version somewhere around here. They found an 18350 tube from another light and then made their own inner tube. Is that what we’re looking at or is this made by Lumintop?
Somebody? I did not find a 18350 tube…I bored the tail end and machined the tube to a press fit…
Not too bad for being “Homemade” I guess…
Not you, someone else.
Was it this…………
Removable ring is much better.
KawiBoy1428, that looks great. Incredible work. Also, that clip is lit.
Confused on whether this short version would work on the first version of the FW3A.
Other than that I would want it to be usable with a pocket clip.
That 18350 FW3A is awfully cute!
I say with removable rubber ring
And finally it is a reality I hope
Any news when this will be available?
Agreed, rubber ring. Also hoping there will be a clip, ideally deep carry considering the shortness.
18500 ;)
perfect!
If I get some 3000mah Samsung INR18650-30Q’s for this do they need to be flat top or will button top work as well?
Flat top is best. I used a button top at first and had to stretch the springs to use a flat top afterwords. Only showed the problem in turbo, manifested as a slight flicker.
