WTB: 18650 carrier for Surefire M6LT

[schurtjl]

I'm looking for a carrier or two for my M6LT (900 lumen) so I can use 18650's in it. Hoping someone might have one lying around. Thanks

If one doesn't turn up quick enough for you and you're willing to consider a similar option, then Fivemega still has a 26650 system for the M6/M6LT available. https://www.candlepowerforums.com/threads/urefire-2x26650-rechargeable-m6-by-fivemega-2.480628/

It adds a bit of length but it is super solid

Didn't realize that was an option. Do you have to swap any other parts or LED out of a stock M6LT to run these higher output batteries? I'll see if I get any bites on the 18650 carrier first.

26650 LiIon cells run at the same maximum voltage as the 18650 LiIon cells, hence they won't magically push any more current than what the M6LT driver electronics ask for. You're good to go with no additional modifications.
