Hi,
For those of you too lazy to make their own, like me :)… I found, and just received, these 18650 batteries:
http://www.customlites.com/Solarforce-18650-dummy-cell-Sol-18650-dmmy.htm
They’re actually made by SolarForce, but I got them from customlites.com, because:
1) They’re almost the same price as from Solarforce-sales, and
2) They’re shipped out of Texas, so shipment to me was less (way less) than 5 days.
I just got 2 of them, and tested in a Trustfire X6, which normally takes 3x18650s, and it worked with 2x18650s and one of these dummies (sorry, no offense intended :)…). I haven’t tried 1x18650 + 2 dummies yet.
I also ohmed them with my old meter, and was getting 0.1 - 0.2 ohms, but the meter has never been calibrated…
Anyway, posting this just in case anyone ever needs something like these.
Later,
Jim
Edit: BTW, I posted a review on Customlites’ website, and noted that these are pretty sturdy, and have nice button tops. Also, disclaimer, I’m not associated with Customlites… just a customer.
