Yes they work just as as the 4.2v 14500 battery works (without the extender of course), the RCR123 is 4.2v as well.

Yes they will. I use the AW RCR123 protected cells in mine. Those are the ones that are black and silver in color.

Sorry to take so long. Saturday morning family time.
Looks like you have it covered. I would definitely go for the two batteries. Or, at least have some primary 123's available. This is one of my favorite lights. I think you will really enjoy it.

It doesn't. The clip just snaps onto the body tube instead of being securely screwed on. Hence people doing mods like using a D10 or McGizmo Ti clip. That and the bluish tint (And for some people the donut hole effect) are the light's downsides.

I still haven't found a source for the OP reflectors, yet. I'd like to get the XPG emitter version and swap out the cool tint emitter for a neutral XPG. Has anybody done this kind of mod on this light? Is this a mod-friendly light? Would also like to see a beamshot with the XPG/OP-reflector combination, if anybody could do that, please.

The head assembly unscrews so you can access the LED directly. Probably not too hard to swap out. I wouldn't try it, but I'm clumsy and have never used a soldering iron in my life... but there's always asking on the custom/mod board. Hmm. Might just do that. That would make this a completely killer light. Solid construction, nice UI, well-chosen output levels, flexible battery options... and neutral tint instead of blue. Oh yeah....
EDIT: The LED sits in a plastic fitting that's securely attached to the light. You'd have to pop it out without damaging anything to get at the wires, assuming it's not directly mounted onto a circuit board.... probably doable by somebody competent.

Thanks, yowzer, that's very encouraging! Will let you know if I'm met with success on the nuetral XP-G swap. 🙂

I am very close to ordering one of these and wondered if anyone had a link to download the user instructions so I can have a look?
Thanks George.
Thanks George.
I have looked and not been able to find one online, what are you interested in because basically it just says turn the selector ring to the right to go up in output and left to go down.

Does anyone have the RRT-0 XP-G with the R5 "Hybrid" reflector? And if so, how's the beam pattern compared to the old SMO reflector. I can't find any dealer that offers the new RRT-O R5 with an OP reflector. They only offer the "Hybrid" or SMO reflectors.
I was only aware of the SMO, is the Hybrid and the SMO one and the same? I don't remember when I ordered, if it is indeed some type of new hybrid I believe any type of light texture would knock out that donut hole.
