Hi Folks,
These deep tail caps are CNC machined from solid aluminum bar and Mil spec hard anodized to fit on your favorite $urefire M6 to accept 2 AW's IMR 26500, 2 AW's protected "C" cells or 25530 cells. Pair of 26650 cells will NOT fit.
These will add little length (about 10mm) to your flashlight and just enough to accept above batteries.
Each tail cap comes with installed black switch boot and PVC tube to center the batteries. McClicky switch and retaining ring is NOT included but optional for $14 extra.
All you need to do is remove original tail cap, remove original battery holder and install PVC tube, 2x26500/25530 cells and deep tail cap.
Please note: NO M6 body included, NO head, NO lamp, NO battery, NO charger.

Advantages:

HOW much longer is this compared to the original tailcap?
About 10mm longer.


Can I also use my original switch or do I need a McClicky?
You can NOT use original switch.
You will need either McClicky or AW's soft start at your choice.



OK, I'm lazy here, but will this give me longer run times using my 1185 and 3 x 17670's?
This will give you 8.4 volt which is not suitable for WA1185
WA1274 is an excellent match but lower output.
Slightly bleeded cells can be used with 5761


Can you say if this tailcap would work with 6x17500 battery holder ($38) from this topic?
Sorry, nothing is available from closed threads.
Please click
here and find blue link of currently available items.
Item pictured in post #1 of this thread is to use with 2 IMR 26500 cells, 2 unprotected 25500 or 2 protected 25530.


Is the PVC tube necessary?
Inside diameter of M6 is about 37mm while diameter of 26500 cell is about 26mm and in order to keep the cells center, PVC tube is needed.

If I wanted a tail cap with a McClicky and tube, the grand total would be $68 shipped inside of California?
Each tail cap with installed McClicky and PVC tube is $52 and shipping to Stats is $6 so grand total will be $58

I can clearly hear the spacer moving.
Some included foam will stop the spacer tube from moving.

I guess you don't have any more PVC tubes for these?
also what color are these? It's kind of hard to tell on my screen.

Sorry, no extra PVC but each kit comes with one PVC tube.
Tail cap is natural/grey HA pretty close to match M6 body.


is there a difference between using a 26500 button top and non button top batteries? AW no longer makes 26500's.
When using protected batteries such as these current capability wouldn't be as good as IMRs but good to use with LEDs and low current incand bulbs.

Do you have the PVC tube, if I buy one M6 Deep Tailcap with Switch?
Each M6 Deep Tailcap with Switch for $52 comes with one PVC tube.

this kit will not work with the 26650 size battery.
Please note that M6 original battery holder has length of about 93mm while 2x26500 is about 100mm and 2x26670 is about 140mm long.
2x26500 won't fit in standard M6 unless using extension tube or deep tail cap pictured on post #1 of this thread.
Obviously, there is no possibility of accommodating 2x26670 in stock M6 and standard tail cap.
M6 2x26650 system is available
here.

before I purchase the entire tailcap kit... Will a Zero Rez momentary/twisty switch work in this?
Above M6 deep tail caps are designed to work with McClicky switch or AW's soft start switch and I can't guarantee work with mentioned or any other switches.

What bulbs work best with this cap? Ok to use the stock ones?
MN20 will work fine.
Do not use MN21 or accept the high risk.
If you have FM bi-pin socket, WA1274 is reliable with fair output.

About 1/2 inch

Need McClicky or soft start

OK, I'm lazy here, but will this give me longer run times using my 1185 and 3 x 17670's?

This is 8.4v. It won't be as bright as the 3x17670's (12v)

Thanks much and I'll likely get one anyway, just had a few ?'s

Thanks jdriller and FM. I was hoping for longer runtimes with this set up for my 1185. I'll have to respectfully pass on this at this time. Always good to see new products from you though FM! Keep up the awesome work you do:thumbsup:

Hi Folks,
These deep tail caps are CNC machined from solid aluminum bar ... to accept 2 AW's IMR 26500, 2 AW's protected "C" cells or 25530 cells.

FiveMega thank you for another great product. The cells recommended above vary in length a bit with some 50mm in length and some 53/54 mm in length. What is your recommendation for best fit?

[size=+1]Switch spring and lamp spring will compensate length difference.
Obviously protected (longer) cells will compress springs harder.
Each bulb may react and perform differently with different chemistry cells and you need pick best for your needs.[/size]

FM,
I'm planning to use this tail cap with your 6x17500 serial or 3P/2S holder. Will it work? What do you think?

Ooooh, very nice. :party: Would be great with an IMR-M3T (2.4A). Awesome beam, ~700 lumens, almost an hour of runtime...

Need to free up funds for this one....:huh::huh::huh:

IMR-M3T is 3.4A - so not quite an hour, maybe 40 minutes.

FM - this is a really nice product. Thinking about a purchase.
