search for 3x18650 host

Benik3 · Dec 23, 2014

Hello!
I'm searching for some cheap host for 3x (or even 4x) 18650 abreast.
Because I want it only as host, the main is the price. I want something with single LED reflector

Also very important thing is, that I need the batteries connected in series!
e.g. something like COURU L2 (but it's parallel connection)
Any other idea?
Thank you and Marry Christmas!

What are you planning to make? You can mod that particular light into a series connection if you wanted to. FYI, that host makes for a pretty good thrower with a few mods.

Well I will want to use it with XHP70

So LED and driver will come out...

The COURU host looks fine (even price could be lower) but I don't know, how to make it connected into series. Problem is, that the body is twisted with the batteries, so I would need some separated holder which can move in the body but for which there isn't probably enough space...
EDIT: I found the topic about series mod on BLF, I will read it, but the topic is still opened

I searched a little more.
I found this interesting host on DX: http://www.dx.com/p/richfire-sf-341...flashlight-grey-3-x-18650-337104#.VJqvf_8K_UM
Change it to series connection shouldn't be hard. Only limiting is the handler, but maybe I would be able to remove it and replace the switch into the body. Doesn't anyone has photo of the inside of the flashlight?

I also found one very similar FL on aliexpress. It should be same, but there are not photos of the battery space so I sent question to seller...
