    Using 2 c123a vs 1 18650

    Would using a 18650 make the output lower? Because obviously we're talking 6 volts vs 3.7. So would it effect output or would the regulator control that. I am specifically talking about the EagleTac T20C2.

    Bright (>500 Lumens) Thrower

    I would perfer a light that runs on 18650 cells. The price needs to be below $100.

    HOLY CRAP! I honestly thought $500 was as high as it got.

    Anyone have this light?

    For 16 bucks + the lithium ion battery, it seems worth it.

    Where do you buy your lights?

    Yeah, I figured the web was the best place, which is not surprising as I buy all mine online. (At least the few I own)
