I have a blue tube sold by Banggood (US warehouse) for the S2+ and it fits and works perfectly on the X2R and the S2+.
I have a second blue tube, also sold by Banggood (CN warehouse) for the S2+ that also works on the S2+ but does not even thread into the X2R.
I have a black S2+ tube directly from Simon, it also does not thread into the X2R.
I now also have a black tube sold by Banggood (CN) as “Eagle eyes 18350” linked earlier in this thread. It threads into the X2R perfectly but does not work correctly. I believe one end is not long enough to reach the contact shelf in the head. Also, the threads on this one are very very shallow, as in the ridges themselves are about half the height of those on the Convoy tubes.
Mine arrived yesterday, I had ordered two of these (maybe I ordered the wrong one?) but neither of them match the threads on any of my Convoy tube lights. Also, even though they are both supposed to be the same SKU, they don’t match. The threads are the same, but the machining is slightly different, and the finishes are much different between the two. One is a nice matte finish while the other has a shiny sheen to the anodizing. Kind of like buying two different 501b hosts from two different vendors…

At a minimum, the latest VG10 tailcap legos with the ThruNite TC12 V2. The tailcap innards swap between the caps too. Will check for other swappable parts and post some pics.
After buying a couple S41S heads in the 3/30 AliExpress sale, I thought I would try out some legoing. The Ultrafire and some generic 501's and 502's fit and work. I didn't realize until after uploading the pic that the middle one below was not all the way screwed on. Tail cap just about touches the knurling and head has a slight gap.
HC30 Head, Eagle Eye A6 18350 Tube and HC30 Tailcap. The 18350 Tube came off a EE A6 Shorty that I got from DB. It does not work with the H03 Tailcap. It measures 2“5/8 or 66.675 total length.

Hello!
Can anyone tell me does convoy’s c8 tail fits on astrolux s2 or EE X6?
I need pressure remote switch for astrolux s2 or EE x6,so i will buy one for convoy c8 if it fits!

If you feel your Olight SR91 is too long and heavy and/or if you do not like or want to buy a new proprietary battery pack, just screw the head onto the
body of a Thrunite TN31.
.
Well, you have to modify the head a little (reverse the spring and remove the black plastic cap).
The tailcap switch of the TN31 body will not work anymore but the electronic switch of the SR91 head will.
.
Mine is being converted to XP-L HI V3 3C which together with the factory Olight driver (close to 7 Amps!) will provide between 450 – 500Kcd of
beautiful NW light.

Much better then the original.
I just posted this in other thread, but realized it should be posted here too. The tubes from first generation MT03's fit the MF01. I haven't tested to see if it works because my MT03 is 4S at the moment. But other than the O-rings not reaching the head, it looks like it would work fine electronically with no to little modification. The MT03 doesn't have a battery carrier (Cells load from the tail). IIRC, the plate on the head side of the tube looks like it would mate up with the MF01 driver without modification.
The head of the Ultrafire WF-502B screws perfectly onto the Revtronic PT20. Clearly the LED is that of the PT20, but the reflector has to be changed with a 26.5×31mm (I did not find it, I made it with a hand-made aluminum cone)
The image below is the original PT20 at a distance of about one meter (white wall)
The image below is the PT20 with head 502B and self-realized reflector, always at a distance of about a meter from the white wall.
In normal use (about after three meters) the various light rings are not noticed; the modification can still be improved and is easily reversible, unscrew the head of the 502B and replace the one of the PT20
They are compatible. Swapped in 2S plates to the MT03 and it works with the MF01. Makes the light much "grabbier" and easy to hold. Shorter too. Unfortunately, the MF01 tube does not fit the MT03 due to the shoulder built into the tube.
I can put the Mateminco X6S tail cap right on the Kronos battery tube like they were made to go together. I can pull the Kronos battery tube and stick it between the X6S head and tail, works fine, so yes, the Kronos X6 lights fully interchange with the Mateminco X6S EXCEPT the bezel of the X6S is shorter to adapt to the shallow triple optic.
Edit: Threads do not interchange between the Kronos/Mateminco lights and the original Eagle Eye X6.
Hst tip tp DBCustom for that.

weird that there is so much variation. Still having issues since the A6 mix ups I guess.
I’ve sent EagleEye a message asking them to make an official one for their products. * fingers crossed *

Yep. As I noted at the beginning of this thread, we here can’t make a general, sweeping, “this fits that” promise to anyone else about budget parts
Because: much variation from one part to the next, even within the same product/brand. Some parts just won’t match up for some of us.
Do we feel lucky? Do we?
All this thread can promise is first hand “I have this and it fits that” information to suggest what MIGHT work for someone else.
Thanks to pilotdog68 for taking a poke at making things better (or, in this case, getting EagleEye to make things better)
I bought convoy 18350 tube to try on my EE XR2. The front fits but the tail switch part will not screw all the way on…. oh well!

The Thorfire C8s tail cap legos with the Convoy C8, and the knurling even matches.
Jaxman E2L and Convoy S2/S2+ threads match nicely.
