What battery should I buy for the flashlight? Any recommendation?
I'm thinking a 26650 for maximum runtime.
I don't know 26650 cells that well, but for 4 dollars, you could order one with the flashlight.
I want to search for better options. Or at least to search for other better known brands maybe!
There are threads about the best 26650 cells, but I don't have them bookmarked.
Nice, I’ll search them!
Weird that I can’t find this Wurkkos flashlight in this thread:
I wonder why. Any specific reason this one, that I assumed to be a very good flashlight for the price, not being listed in the above link list?
I couldn't find a thread for you, but I remembered HKJ's website.
Here's a link for some batteries that are larger than an 18650.

That thread is from 2019, and is not exhaustive.
Maybe the Wurkkos is newer than 2019?
Was it this one:
I’m looking for rechargeable ones. I have a Technoline BC-700 charger but I think it cannot charge this 26650 type of battery. Not sure if I can come up with a small mod just to make the charger to adapt to this battery size!
Ohh, ok, ddidn’t even thought of that!
I have no idea how recent these are.
Here's another thread from 2019...
This is the most recent (and helpful) thread I can find on 26650 recommendation.
The Technoline BC-700 only works with AA and AAA batteries.
All 26650 cells are rechargeable, and you'll need a Li-Ion (or universal) charger.
Yeah, indeed. I forgot about the Li-Ion detail…
Can the flashlight charge the battery? I see it has a USB connection, right?
Good point.
I think so.
I think any flashlight with a USB port can charge the battery with the USB connection.
Well, it's from Shockli Battery Store, and it has good feedback, so it's probably not a fake.
I am not an expert on fake batteries, though.
EDIT:
Shockli Battery Store is the official store, so it should not be a fake.
I live in the desert, and there are scorpions here.
Are you looking for a UV light for scorpions?
(Just curious.)
Here's a list of some 26650 cells in Europe.

These look nice:
It looks so.
I think I’ll order it and the battery next week.
Thanks for helping everyone!
I just found this deal
What you guys think? It’s almost half of the price in Aliexpress!
Edited;
Crap, they seem not to send to Portugal!
I think it's only $2 less than AE.
