Was quoted somewhere in this mess 65mm - 69 mm. And 18700 would NOT fit. I know, I have a few 70mm myself but luckily i have a few others too. I can try my ur18650f protected batteries and post if you like, well once i get my light that is.
Glad I checked back here. Almost missed the first wave but got mine ordered today!! Darn, thought I was subscribed here……oops. Oh well either way I am diggin getting the smallest 18650 light with multiple modes and XM-L2 for $30. HUGE Thanks. Really hope to see this light materialize for all of soon though. I HATE Waiting……
Would be interesting if this light came with a selection of optics to choose from, having the ability to change the beam profile would give it some real utility value.
i almost preordered one, but im going to wait for the initial reviews i think - all my cells are now 18650 protected 3400ncrb cells from fast tech which are quite long (70mm ish)… plus i ordered a xeno xml2u2 today
I got a confirmation email saying that he got the order and it will ship as soon as possible. It took 3 or 4 days though so I would not worry. Ric will come through.
I hope so. I do see my name on the list on their website, twice, so I hope that it’s ok. Are these going to ship out of the Far East starting 4/5, or are they suppose to arrive on 4/5? Counting the days now…
If you go to the fancy flashlights website, and then to pre-order page, you can check the list of people who’ve ordered, and confirm that you’re on there.
@ djozz, ohaya - got it… thanks! I did not get a specific email from FF but did see that my name was added to the list…
my choice was between the BLF Mini 02 and this one… I ended up with this one because I already have 18650s… I hope it was the right choice!!
(and no, i do not want to get both… well actually i do ;), but i will not be able to explain this one, nevermind two (on top of the pile of flashlights I already have sitting on the table….))
