I dont know if this goes here or in the batteries section but here goes:

I'm looking to get some rechargables and dont know what kind to get. I looked around but couldnt find a list of what kind (R123, pila 150A, 150S, 168A, 168S, 18250(?) ect goes with what light.

I hope to run rechagables on my L4 and a KL1 on 1-2 cells. Is there a kind that will fit in the surefire E seris? what about running incans on them? Could I run a U2 on the same kind as I use to run the L4? What kind would that be? what other lights would run on that kind or batteries?

Sorry for my ignorance.

Pila 168s works great in the L4 or KL1 on a 2-cell body one 168s is the size of 2 123's hope that helps Jon (JSBurly's)
is my Pila guy.
There is a thread in the Dealers Corner stated by Jon about what you use your Pila's in good info also in the Reviews section Quickbeam has a list of lights he has tried or at least has word that works both worth looking at IMHO.

Very good reads Topper, I'd missed the thread in the Dealers corner /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Rechargeables for U2 would be the 18650. ALot of the owner use them and r very satisfied with it. Both Aw and Emilion sell 18650 and there are 2 version of it, protected and unprotected.

Both protected and unprotected give you the same output and run-time?
