ZL seems cautious, more cautious than most, in its 18650 cell requirements to the point where I would not expect them to make things that ask for cells that only come from unknown, dodgy, or second tier Chinese makers. Look at the mess with the new Samsung Note and presumably those batteries came from Samsung's own tier one factories.
Yes i mentioned that in my post. I had several typos and bad auto-corrections in my original post that have been corrected.

Thank you !
I've looked at some reviews too, my cells look exactly like that.
There's also a little scan code on them, but believe it or not, I don't have a smartphone or anything else to scan that !
But it's true, you can get fakes from Amazon, since they ship things for other companies.

+1. Don't blame amazon, blame the actual sellers. If I see "Ships from and sold by Amazon.com" or another reputable seller, no worries. But when it says something like "Sold by FungKungGooHoo and Fulfilled by Amazon", I hesitate.

Hey FungKungGooHoo is where I got my genuine guaranteed to work and not catch on fire 10,000mah 18650 cells from :twothumbs All kidding aside though is there anyone who preordered this light and lives internationally? If it ships out this week the international customers could begin receiving these by early next week.

That would be so cool, wouldn't it? Whoever gets the first light will certainly have bragging rights (and probably get asked a ton of questions).

I was just telling my husband that there's a flashlight that no one even has yet but there are more than 600 posts about the light, in one thread! He gave me the "you crazy flashlight people" look, lol. No doubt now he's expecting to see a new Zebralight in the house soon. ;) CPF is so great. :D

Oh I'm so gonna brag:twothumbs

It's rather rare to see a lady into flashlights though, good for you! Maybe drag the hubby to CPF as well:cool:

Did you get a shipping notice yet? Are you working out a secret deal with ZL? Haha I remember the one you preordered last year I think it was that came like 2-3 weeks early!

Hey, maybe Markr6 has bribed the ZL people to give him a direct line from the factory.

I don't care, as long as he shows us the pictures! He can have the Precious, just show us the pictures!

That way we will know if we wants the Precious ourselves, if we must have it!

I ordered mine on 8/31. I emailed ZL today to ask if my order will be shipping on the 24th. They replied: Sorry it will be about 1 or 2 more weeks. Grrrrr....
