I'm curious if anybody knows of a 1xAA P60 host out there? I see FM does an 18500 C body, which might be the route I end up taking but looking for other options as well. Thanks!

Not precisely a P60, in the following photo, but one could make something similar with an E2C adapter instead ...

With an E2C adapter, the lines are not so appealing, but it does work (and a 1xAA E-series host, like say a Malkoff MDC, will work and look similar to the top torch below) ...

There was a thread a little while back where I think Bykfixer (sp?) found a Rayovac 2AA light that could be opened up to take a P60.

Yes the Rayovac can take a P60. I have a Malkoff M31 in one but I read about it here where others before me had done it.

Malkoff MDC 1aa body and a VME head is a really sweet P60 host. I had one for a time with an M31 in it and it was nice, nice, nice. Put out about 60 lumens. I actually had the Rayovac pill in it for a hi/lo option but preferred the M31. The fellow I bought it from asked me to sell it back to him. He had put it together then didn't care for it or needed cash or something I forget so he sold it to me cheap. When he asked for it back I gladly obliged.

Is the Sandwich Shoppe still open? Maybe they still have a few Aleph-17500 bodies.

The two middle lights are 17500 bodies... but the Aleph (BK HA finish) with the LM P-to-E head-bezel is loaded with a Keeppower 14500 1000mAh.

Lumens Factory also has this on their plans, though you have to wait for next year.
