I'm excited to get this light this week. Just placed the order.

Had a question, will the Jetbeam 18650's I have for my M1Xm work good in this light? 2600mAH I believe.

Should be ok, the SC600 draws about 63.3 micro-amps on standby and 3.04A on high from the battery according to my measurements. 3.04A is well within the 2C discharge limit for LiCo cells and should be fine, if it has a real capacity of 2600mah that is. However, upgrading to a 3100mah AW or Redliast will net you about 20+% more runtime, if that's important to you. It's great small EDC light! Not terribly bright or throwy but the floody beam is quite useful for closeup work.

I have been using the jetbeam 2300mah cells in my sc600, easy 90 mins runtime on turbo , charge at 4.17 everytime and run down to 3.12 before activating step down -good cells i have 5 in rotation for my 18650 lights.

I actually purchased last night a AW 3100mAH cell. Just because I didn't want to take any of the two 18650 cells I have for my Jetbeam away for this one.

I do the same thing, I use the same batteries in the same lights, and have "charge" and "use" sets that alternate...for the ones that take multiple batteries. (Same batteries move in dedicated sets, same set charging/same set in light, etc...)

For the one battery lights, I just rotate the stock of non-dedicated singles so to speak.
