Hmm… Any chance a DQG Hobi or Fairy tube would lego with those? If so, there is a short extension tube available for those from Banggood. It should be long enough to fit two button cells back-to-back with a divider in the middle, to light up both lights. There are actually two versions of the tube, one with a divider already and one that is just an open tube. I have both.
The Convoy S2 vs Convoy S2+ 18650 & 18350 tubes!
As posted on another thread, the Convoy S2 gray (bought from Simon) can be used with the black & desert tan 18650 tubes and the gray, black & desert tan 18350 tubes!
Also, the S2 gray tube can be used in the “short” Convoy S2+ (blueish gray) [no photo of that one, sorry].
The Skilhunt DS20 legoes with the (shorty) battery tube of the BLF-A6. The o-rings do not engage at all so the combination is not waterproof, but it works fine on a 18350.
The Nitecore P12 tailcap fits perfectly onto the Nitecore P30. It makes it easier to use a lanyard without having to use the tactical ring on the P30, and it will tail stand. Tail standing is not perfect because the rubber boot on the P12 switch is a bit taller then the cap. However, It does work as you can see in the pic.
It just so happens that I'm on the bus on my way home and I also happen to carry my D4V2 and 90% sure that I should have some change in my wallet. Now.. let's see if no one is looking my way and..
Nope, just joking.. But, all of a sudden just realised.. my trip home seems to have gotten that much longer for whatever reason, I wonder why that could be, hmm..
Anyone know what other lights have threads that Astrolux S41/S42/S43 (Mateminco S01/S02/S03) tubes would lego with?
Trying to find more attractive 18650 and 18350 tubes for a new Astrolux S43S that is on it's way. (Copper head, alu body version).
Both the S41S and S42S have editions with lovely Stainless/Coloured tubes, tails and bezels. But they never made these complete editions of the S43.
I have already ordered the official 18650 tubes in SS from Banggood which are available separately at reasonable price.
They also have matching tails in SS available separately - but only the S41 version with button.
The S42/43 flat buttonless style doesn't seem to be available separately. Neither do the shorter SS/Coloured 18350 tubes seem to be individually available.
I've contacted Mateminco (OEM) to see if they can supply these body parts separately. Besides, their stock S03 tube (Black Alu) is much nicer than the completely smooth plain tube they supplied for the Astrolux S43. The Mateminco version has rather cool finger indents!
Would the multitude of available tubes (many of which I already own!) for the BLF A6 / Convoy S2+, work with the Astrolux?
Even better, would the Lumintop FW3A/FW1A tubes or Bezel lego with any of these - A6/S2+/Astrolux S4x?
There are beautiful copper, SS & Ti 18350 tubes available separately from Lumintop that would be perfect if they work...
