The BugOut "Cree Q5 Super Premium" module is rated 4.5 Volt to 9 Volt, which means it most probably will not run regulated with a 18650 cell, which gives 3.7 Volt.
The Wolf Eyes drop-ins rated 3.7-6 Volts will, and they work great, have one single step 170 Lumens running either a 18650 or a R123 cell, both works fine.
I am looking for one of these BugOut drop-ins too, but will be using either a 2x18650 or 2xR123 setup with this one from BugOut.
Wolf Eyes also have a 190 Lumens two-stage 3.7-6 Volts drop-in, which looks interesting.

I think the BOG has a buck converter in there, so an 18650 should work okay, just not as bright all the way through the battery life. It should fall out of regulation around 3.7 volts and slope off until the protection circuit kicks in. Will you kill the dropin with an 18650, no.
