Looking for a titanium 18350 or 18500 tube.

Good luck, I was after one for ages and had to settle on the 18500 instead, they’re hard to find. It only reduces the length by 15mm, and didn’t look as nice with the copper as I thought it would so I just use the copper shorty now.
I wish Lumintop made a titanium 18500 tube.
I have the titanium 18350 tube (not for sale). Using it results in a very fat, short light.
But I find I prefer 18500. The best 18500 cells have twice the capacity compared to 18350, and the light is long enough to feel more secure in the hand. I have the 18500 tube on my aluminum FW3A and prefer its size and shape.

They do. That’s what I went for, but went back to the 18350.

Holy cow! They added an 18500 Titanium tube and I missed it!!!
I just placed an order for a Stonewashed one. :heart_eyes:
They’re out of polished Ti. I’m hopeful I can polish the Stonewash out of it myself.

I reckon the stonewashed mid section will look pretty good with the polished ends. It didn’t suit my copper version, well not to my eye anyway.
DRAT!!!
Just received my “stonewashed” titanium 18500 tube from Neals Gadgets.
Unfortunately, he sent me an 18500 copper tube instead of titanium. And now he’s sold out of all titanium 18500 tubes.
I double-checked my order after I saw the copper. I did indeed place the order properly for “stonewashed”.
GRRRRRRR

That’s annoying. Did you ask if there are going to be any more?
When I was after an 18350 shorty for mine, I put ‘WTB 18350……’ as my sigline so it shows in every post I made/make. Better than an ad in the classifieds.
