Also Wolf Eyes 2x123A and 4x123A lights. Some low-cost LED models sold in the Dealers forum by Dae and Emillion.
And some high-cost specialty lights sold in the Custom and Mod forum.

The Quicksilver V (also known as the Varibrite 51L) but you need the version with the detachable tube otherwise it can be hard to remove the cell.

I have two Mag 2C modded with U-bins and regulators and run them both on 2 18650 cells. One is a multi-level nFlex controller and I just love that light to pieces.

The HDS is going to release an 18650 battery tube for their EDC lights any day now. This should work out great since these lights were meant to run on 1x123A and as such, can run at full brightness with the 18650 and have over 4x runtime with the 18650 tube. Also, this tube is designed specifically for the 18650.

Can't wait to pair my U85 with an 18650 battery tube...

Ah, yes. I've seen that thread. But what about the 2x168A tubes? In another thread, someone mentioned that TranqulityBase would be selling those, too. Where can I find info on that tube?
