Re: FS: Shorty C/D 26650 M*glites + XML and more.
Ok, so it seems like with the latest data base issue we only lost about 2 days worth of posts ( Thank you again Greta for all your hard work
). I will try to repost from memory the answers I can.
Questions I recall are.
What is the cost and size of a 26650 cell?
Cost is around $15 each.
The name and size of a 26650 are one. 26mm x 650mm. They are a bit larger around than a C battery and a bit longer than a D.
Can 3AA cells be used in place of a li-ion?
Yes, if an adapter like mdocod sells here is used.

Can NIMH rechargeable cells be used?
Yes. A set of quality NIMH cells will vastly out perform alkaline cells in a high powered light. 3 AA alks would only be in for emergency and would work at a reduced output at best.
If I missed anyone elses questions please repost and I will answer.
