We are working now assembling this battery holders. They have been designed to be used on the new K-15 canisters (extension battery packs for U/T-04, U-T-15 lights), but also for the upcoming new products which will demand more energy than we can provide with 2x18650 (4xCr123).

They will be sold separately also for modders and CPF people.

Pics soon.

Did you ever think of adding the option of a super short replacement body when using this canister? i.e. having the Head of the Lamp, a short body to mount it to a helmet and then the cable to the canister?

As the body is empty anyways, why not exchange it with a short one when using the canister.

This would of course only work, if all barbolight battery heads had the same thread, which i do not know.

Thanks Pöbel,

The bodies are glued with a special compound to the head, so not possible. That makes the light more reliable, and the heat dissipation better.

I have been using a U-15 + K-15, and the "long2 tube is not unconfortable at all.

Regards,

Javier

So will this work on the U 04 Zoom that I've been thinking about getting when it becomes available?

They are finished!!!

They have been made for high demand Barbolights and new K-15 canisters. As explained before they can hold 4 x 18650 or 8 x Cr123. So, "Le Big Pack" can storage 37 Watts/hour of raging power. Batteries are connected 2S2P to give 7,4V or 12 with LiMn02.

Max lenght. (anode spring compressed) is 80 mm, and max diameter is 45 mm.

They are great for monster projects.

18,00 US$ each.

You can get easily custom lenght just by using threaded bar. (as the picture of the prototype) The idea of moddig the configuration is possible, as everything is moddable, but... it is going to take a while!!!

Wow, apart from custom proyects, this will be perfect for big runtimes with the T-09's (only underwater of course) and very good for the future products (old painless maybe...and all type of barbomegaburnmakers :laughing:) how much will be cost with the new kanister?

With that dimensions, the set will be very compact!

The look is fantastic Javier.

Hi barbarín,

Is the new K-15 still having the long cord that goes inside the U15?

Because the old K15 used 6 packed batteries, so I was thinking perhaps the new K15 was using 4 batteries in the canister and 2 more inside the U15 body.

Or is it just that the new K15 is more efficient and requires less batteries?

I think old and new k15 are diferent concepts, old kanister only work with 7.2V, the new kanister is for dual supply and more compact, i would bet that the new k15 is not using 2 more batteries in the body of the flashlight.

Hello guys. Excuse me this time my spanish..

Lojo, Oscar.. El K-15 actual funciona con 4 baterías, y en el cuerpo lleva un batería falsa. La autonomía es de 3 horas con una variación de menos del 5% desde el minuto 1.

Regarding K-15. It works now with 4 x 18650 instead of a 6 pack. In the flashlight tube you must place a battery fake to make it work, and runtime is 180 minutes, from 100% to 95% output. A real flat graphic.
