I need some help with the above, I had been using a small washer as a spacer and now that won't work...anyone have any suggestions on what I can use that will last? Thanks!

Rare-earth magnet?

What he said. It's what I use on all my bare cells. Be careful not to let it cause a short.

I guess I am lucky in not needing a spacer in my l4 for the 17670 batt. Its a very tight fit though, needing to push it out with a pen from the end.

I'm kinda suprised... I got a few protected 17670's from AW, and they work fine without a magnet. They also slide in and out of the body with ease, just like regular CR123's

If the 17670 fits in the L4, why won't it fit in the L2? Are the bodies that much different on the inside? They both use 2 CR123's normally. The 14670 seems like it would be way too small and would rattle badly.
