Update -=May 11th, 2006=-

Limited quantity of each finish, ready to ship.

$55 each, shipping included.

You must already own my C-adapter to be able to use this cell tube.

They will couple to my C-series adapter only.


Update -=< April 23rd, 2006 >=-

Things are moving forward, full steam ahead.

I'm very, very pleased with the 1.5mm o-ring. Everything related to this size change has worked out much better than I anticipated.

I will offer raw tubes first. The left overs will go in for HA.

I don't expect too many will sell in raw aluminum, I didn't sell many C-adapters in raw finish.

If all goes as planned, I will have these 18 tubes completed and ready for HA by the end of this weekend.

If you already have a C-adapter and wish to purchase a HA natural or black version of this 18650 x2 tube, send me a PM.


Anyone not familiar with my 18650 tubes, these tubes are made for, and must be coupled to my C-adapter.

Thanks for looking,

Re: How many C-series 18650 tubes do I have to make?

Mini Moder, black is specified. However, I have a question. Lately I have developed a really strong affinity for bare aluminum. Would it be possible to get a clear anodize coat on the bare AL finish for better wear? That would be a nice option!

To clarify, this is like your other tubes where there is an adapter piece threaded at the (+) head end of the tube that couples to C-series. The E-series adapter will work on the head end of the tube as well, I presume? So would you offer E-adapters as an option for C- to C- tubes?

I think the primary focus will be on 1x and 2x tubes, because most all SF and Aleph stuff is for one or two cell applications. The two 18650 cell setup especially is a perfect direct replacement for 9V incan bulbs, or any application that calls for three CR123 primary cells. PLus the MN21 for a short while.

I use my 1x and 2x 18500 tubes the most, with 2x on occasion for long runtime outside. 3x is a rare bird because not many applications call for 12V, (4 123 cells). But there are some, including the M4 lamp assemblies.

I would concentrate mainly on the 1x tube 60/40 percent split with the 2x tube and leave the 3x for custom orders only. Make a bit more than half of them 1x. Myself I would go for 1x of the 1x (maybe 2) and 1x of the 2x tube, maybe in bare AL this time. I still vote for the 2x 18500, I hope you could do another one of those. I would take em all in clearcoat bare AL or henry Ford black

Thanks Scott!!!!!!

Re: How many C-series 18650 tubes do I have to make?

If these will also handle Pilas 168a cells then I'm in for a couple maybe more; 1x & 2x C/C in HA Nat. *maybe one 3x too if I can come up with the turbo tower*

For clarification, these will be C threaded on both ends or only C on the tail with the head threaded for E that can be adapted to C via your C2E adapter?

I believe the SureFire® z59 Black tailcap would fit and it is also a clickie if i am not mistaking.
Dunno if it is Hard anodized...

If not Ha-Nat would be okay too.

Kiessling:

You have a good point,


There are more options with the Ha-Nat.

How would you say the TB-Ha-Nat matches the Black Aleph 3 heads?

I am planning on using the C-end tubes with a Detonator Extender on my
Black Aleph 3 head.

I'd be in for:

(2) 3 X 18650 black C/C
(2) 2 X 18650 black C/C

I may want more than this, but this will be my first order...

Re: How many C-series 18650 tubes do I have to make?

Benny ... ahem ... it is dark slate grey vs a dark brown NAT ... they do not match. BUT I think that the NAT Detonator (which is very dark and does not match my SF bodies at all) will look very good with the TB-tubes ... and I am planning a set-up with the Detonator, too :D

TB ... looks like you have some work ahead ...

OK:ohgeez:

This will be the official thread of interest for the 18650 cell tubes with the C-series switch end. I don't have all of the details worked out as of now, but I'm working on it.

They will couple to my C-series adapter only.
