Spare change... Nice...

Who knows, maybe I'll post another mod kit. I have a somewhat hosed AA host I was planning on fixing, should be a simple-ish fix. I may use that as a give-away... Or maybe need to fix it first.

Will this work in a Maelstrom s12? I did some searching but didnt really find any info. So if you think it will work in an s12 then I'll take it :)

It does work well in my FourSevens MMU-X, which is part of the same series. But I don't know if they changed the spring length or tube length. Looks like the S12 was designed for a protected 26650, I have asked HKJ if he can confirm either way.

I find I don't use the dot or any other landmarks. I just turn the tail cap clockwise until the light turns on and then back off until it goes off. At that point, the momentary switch works fine and the tail cap is nowhere near exposing the O-ring. I suspect your battery is longer than mine. Batteries were out of stock when I ordered so I ordered non-4Sevens batteries. They look similar and have the same specs but lack the protection circuit, which makes the battery longer.

Found this is another thread. Looks like unprotected cells can work. I'll send it your way, weez82, if it doesn't work, perhaps you can give it away. I think wedlpine is still down a 26650 or two, so he might take it if it won't work for you.

Item 1(done): Lighthound Tactical AA light + 14500 (this light still has a flickering issue - it seems to occur less with 14500 than with a primary, but it still happens occasionally - ideally it would go to someone who either doesn't mind the flicker, or even better, who can troubleshoot and repair it) (I can also ship with a primary lithium cell if you don't have a charger for lithium-ion)
Item 2(done): Kinoko high drain 26650

I am very grateful for the modding kit and all the well wishes. There were fewer side effects from the chemo this time. I am really excited to be able to move up a step in modest life as a modder. Three years ago I was condemned to use whatever flashlight I could find only to have the batteries give out and be back in the dark. Now I have a whole new vocabulary with buck/boost driver, Lithium Ion, throw, spread, flicker, 18650,16340 and so on...I feel a little guilty posting "I'll take it" regarding item 3, but if no one else does.....thank you!
 
No reason to feel guilty...that is what this giveaway is for! Helping out those who can use the stuff...better than it sitting on my shelf.

Item 3 is now claimed...item 4 is now available!
 
I was checking in a few times to see if I could nab that 18650 battery. I see it was only available for 2 minutes. :( :p Thumbs up to this thread!
