Does anyone known a good supplier for these?
As above, they need to be ICR (not INR), high drain for a modded flashlight.
I’ve heard stories of people ordering and getting INR’s instead of ICR’s, that’s why I’m here asking.
Thanks guys.
That IO link is quite the price for one? Im hoping its for two as in the image, but it doesnt seem to say that anywhere. And theyre button tops.
Edit: Link changed.
The FT link does, this one you posted first does not does in the title bit. My bad…

I think FT might have been one of the places sending out different chemistry. Yep.
I have KingKongs from FT. ICR, capacity is around 4000mAh depending of current.
At 4A they are 3965mAh.
Thanks for the links guys.
I’m now hesitant to order the ICR’s from FT now, should I just go with intloutdoor to be safe?
Dont be impatient. More people who have dealt with sellers in the more recent past will chime in eventually. It might no longer be an issue.
Roger that, I’ll wait to hear from more people then
Single cell use or in series? Flat top unprotected will not work in series, get the button top unprotected.
will mountain ship to au?
takes the lottery aspect out of the deal.
PM Richard (RMM) and ask him directly, but I would assume yes.
(Calvin) at Illumn aka Illumination Supply will for sure. Speedy delivery, easy to deal with. https://www.illumn.com/
Both are members here, the bracketed bit is their respective usernames. Just buy a few, and look at their bargains, it makes the postage costs seem insignificant. I ordered 10 Energizer cr123’s, they would cost me $100 here. I got the 10 CR123’s, 2 x 14500, 2 x 16340 and a 4sevens Quark and a couple of battery caddies for the same money delivered.
Update: they need to be used in series, so button top is required.
FT don’t ship to Aus, and Cal from IS only seems to sell flat top’s 
Jesus these batteries are hard to find.
FT don’t ship to Aus AND mtnelectronics are out of stock
Help!!!

Supposedly they do now ship to Australia.
RMM (Mountain Electronics) has EVVA 26650s’ 4000mah ICRs. These are KK inside going by the details.

Although if youre patient it seems the Chinese sellers will be back in business soon… maybe.
You can add solder blobs to flat top cells so they make contact when in series.
Get in touch with Yass - ebay username supersports600. No doubt slightly higher prices than OS sellers but delivery is included and customer service is top notch.
He has several types of 26650s available including some testing better than the KK
Did you email RMM to make sure that he does not ship to Australia? The Mountain Computers web site is not set up to handle foreign orders but Richard does those via direct contact. Even Canadians have to contact him via email to make purchases per my understanding.
Yep, I did exactly that, read this thread the man is awesome. He lives near me, so I picked them up from his house, had a really good chat with him. He actually DESIGNED the protection circuit that’s in his Panasonic Blazars and is also used by many other reputable battery brands. The Blue 26650’s he sells crap all over KK’s, he showed me some graphs from his testing.
I emailed Yass yesterday asking his recommendation for a good cell for the DQG triple CNQualitygoods has on sale at the moment. The blue ones were his pick.
Will be ordering a couple soon.
Interesting idea in the other thread, I've just added a comment there.
