Don’t forget that triple and quad parallel setup paired with true constant current driver will give you longer regulated runtime than single.

trying to find the right O ring size.
black one FKM Viton, is just a bit too big!.

my RRT-01 Flat White (1);
Very nice!
I saw your post and immediately swapped the emitter in my 2019 RRT-01 for an Oslon White from International Outdoors. Turns the light into a small thrower.
The Oslon works quite well in these lights since peak current isn’t too high for the emitter.
Put a 219C in mine (I know I know, so last year) and reamed out the centering ring. That thing is a pain to get over a 219C. I doubt it will be the final LED/reflector combination but it will do for now.
CCT = 4062K (Duv 0.0014) / Color Rendering Index (Ra) = 89.8 [ R9 = 56.4 ]
Djozz, your wish might have come true:
Vapcell 16340 they rate it at 7A.
They re-used the 14500 thread and only edited OP. Terrible forum usage but battery seems decent!
Yes, I noticed that, great news for 16340 light owners. It seems to have very good specifications.
I wonder if it comparable to the 16340 cells that come with the latest high performance 16340 flashlights (I assume it is all the same cell with a different wrap), or if it is better than those.
I’m going to have to get some of those Vapcell 16340s for my 16340 lights. Not the RRT-01 though since that uses 18350.
Wow, little beast this thing is. I like mine but,the tint shift is crazy. This seems to be what I’m looking for.
I’m having trouble finding any Vapcell 16340s?
Has anyone measured the reflector in a few spots to try to find a replacement on kaidomain/aliexpress? When I had mine open I forgot to do it
Eye10 mod w triple 219b 3500k 9080 arrived
the hotspot of the triple is more than twice as large as the single emitter
and it takes more than twice as many lumens from the triple, to get similar illumination on a target
so I would say the throw of the triple is about half that of the single
but I have no way to measure throw, Im only guesstimating, based on the test posted here:

and share your thoughts and preferences
And a poll about pocket clip length
I found a shorter clip in one of my boxes from some older model Jetbeam and installed it. Aesthetically, it looks identical, but is much shorter. It fully clears the ring.
I replied in the clip poll thread
I have a flat top 18350 and at first tried a 1x3mm magnet to get the contact to work on the RRT-01… but it was troublesome because while the brass contact point matches it, there’s open space around it so the magnet can slide off target while screwing the body together. I just got 1x5mm magnets and yes, this works really well now. I didn’t want to bother with applying solder to the battery, given how long it takes for me to drain the cell on this light (it’s not my EDC).
Some other options
Note that either of these solutions remove the phyiscal reverse polarity protection. Make sure to always double-check you are putting your cells in the correction direction.
Yeah, that’s why I didn’t want to make a permanent solution. The 1mm x 5mm magnet is excellent. It’s just thick enough to make contact, but thin and wide enough so as to not slide off contact.
