1xAA C8 style, exist?

[Dimbo_The_Blinky]

I agree with you completely:

@Chicken Drumstick

you might as well go 18650.

For us, yes, of course.

For our relatives and friends who “don’t know about all that flashlight stuff”, not-so-much…

E.g. SWMBO is every-bit as smart as I am, yet even she almost turned a 2*CR123 ($6+ worth of batteries) emergency light into an ignition source, trying to make our tent into a “camp site night light”…

+1, same questions, for every light.

Well well now. For no apparent reason I studied e-bay for a while looking for something along the lines you want.
And I found this to be a… maybe? It is not a C8 shape.

Uhm…you can do it better…
hahaha I’m joking!! :bigsmile: Thank you very much, very kindly! Now I take a look some times. Thanx

If you are prepared to go Li-ion you might as well go 18650

Yes sir, I’m prepared very well. My Yezl Y3 run with 3x18650 with adaptors (or when it will arrive 1x26650). And it is not the only flashligth

For sure, if I’ll go on 18650, will buy this: Jax Mini C8 she’s a perfect lady for me.

So one day I will be able to make the size scale, from Mini C8 1xAAA, then 1xAA, regular Convoy, then Jax…and so on (26650, D, etc etc)

This one is not so bad, but always 1xAAA…

Smiling-Shark-SS-C9-

Or another crappy 1xAAA

Or this shitty AA by Ultrafire…Ultrafire XL 011

Always with side click…this one: Kinkifire K10S 1xAA-1x14500

[Manx]

Another small C8, like Jax, always with 1x18650….On the road mini C8 …and very expensive too!!! :~

At this point, probably a mini C8 1xAA/14500 does’t exist (and will never…) :_(

How about this one, AA, ugly grey, side switch, epistar led, but it takes AA and I think it meets the requirement:

Thank sir, probably it is the most 1AA C8’s style. I’ve linked it a coupple of post before, but from DX
But your link is better of mine, because it’s cheaper, so thank you! :bigsmile:

edit:
what is a “epistar led”?

Sorry, missed your link . Epistar is one of the bigger chinese ledmakers. Their leds are not necessarily worse than the non-chinese major brands, but you just don't know what you get because there's no further specs than just the brand name.
