Would the Malkoff M61 used with a single AW 18650 2600mAh cell be a good combination? Or does the M61 work much better with dual cells?
I use an M61w with one AW 3100 18560 battery as my work light. I can't tell a difference between two primaries, two 16340s, or a single 18650 in terms of brightness. I've done a few runtime tests with the 18650 and only when the light was at the three hour mark and the voltage registered 3.22 volts did I notice it was getting dim enough to warrant a battery change. When it was at the two hour mark (3.54 volts) the output was good and I couldn't tell much of a difference if any from when I started the test with a fully charged battery (4.2 volts). So far I'm happy with it and I would recommend the combination although you'll probably get slightly less runtime with the lower capacity AW 2600.
