All of my Malkoff lights take either 18650 or 123s.
There are many lights which only take 123s. case in point Elzetta, some Fenix lights. Mostly everything by Surefire. Ever heard of *that* brand?
It's very common for a light to take only 123s and not 18mm cells. Much less common for a light to take only 18mm cells and not 123s. It has to be some kind of custom one of a kind custom bult device with a gazillion lumens.
A light that can only take 18650 has to be exceptionally bizarre, I mean why would anyone get a device which lacks the flexibility.
123s are perfectly fine for occasional usage, when the car breaks down or bump in the night situation. Normal people do not run their lights for 45 minutes every day like the average here. They probably store them in their glove boxes or end tables. It's not an every day part of their life like spoon and fork is.
Then there are lights that take regular AA, AAA, D and C cells. Or some esoteric CR2 which is also found in the stores and it's ok to buy once for $7.99 and then realize it's much cheaper online than CVS.
Get acquainted with the Amazon or Ebay and sellers that ship to Canada. I do not pay 24.99/pair.
Great. Go ahead and throw it out for someone else to pick up and actually use it.
See how well it all works out.
