Thanks so much for posting this torchjunkie! I have several extra 18650 rechargeable cells lying around not being used and I actually thought about buying this light for a little over $8.00.
Because of your post, I now have three coming for the same $8.00! Thanks again!
P.S. I don’t care if they are “authentic” or not. If they work, they’re an incredible deal.
They took my $3.
It says “Product Size:L120mm x W20mm x H20mm”. 120 mm. is rather long for a compact 18650 and 20 mm. is only 2 mm. wider than the battery.
There were 15 in stock 7 hrs. ago after I bought 6. Great deal, thanks. If ordering several the standard shipping becomes less than the super saver shipping. After VIP discount, coupon, and shipping upgrade.... $14.10. $2.25ea.!
I would assume that it probably won’t be driven very hard. Hopefully the driver can be resistor modded. IMO it would be easier to upgrade the LED to a XPL so that the same centering ring can be used and it will fit without modification.
