26500 rechargeable batteries

[Silgt]

Anyone knows where I could purchase new 26500 li-ion rechargeable cells? AW stopped carrying them and I have a hard time finding another reliable source.

Thank you...

DX used to have them. I am not sure if they still do.
Quality and capacity is not as good but AFAIK that's the only choice for protected 25500
Protected one is about 54mm long.

Still looking...

I have 6 IMR 26500's with only a dozen cycles on them sitting in a box if you want them

Mate, I'm sorry to have gotten your hopes up but I forgot about this:

All lithium batteries are now classified as dangerous goods and cannot be carried by air.
Australia Post cannot accept lithium batteries or devices containing lithium batteries for mailing overseas or for domestic air carriage. Parcels containing these items will now only be transported within Australia and by road only."

Sorry mate.

No worries I did realized this...looking for a friend in Sydney who could perhaps get them for me as I'm expecting a shipment from him soon. Will keep you posted...
