Does anyone have an UlraFire RL-2088? Does it require button top batteries?

GTSECC · Mar 24, 2010

Could I use, for eaxmple, the AW P18650 2600 which are not button top? They have 3 raised dots:

or do I need the button tops?
Does anyone know?
I am ready to order from AW.
How can I look inside the light and tell?
I don't have it yet - it is still at the Post Office.

It looks like you'll need button top batteries to make reliable contact in the carrier. Alternatively, some small magnets on those flat top cells may do the trick. I don't have this light though, so I wouldn't want to say for sure.

sorry to revive this thread but can someone elaborate on the magnet trick?
