and my guess is they use this drop in (or circuit) in their 5-Mode 3W Cree Flashlight (1x18650) (http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.4226).
For an extra $6 you get a host that takes 18650 :thumbsup:

So how are we supposed to use this in Surefire multi-123 cell lights?

Is the 17670 li ion what I need for my SF 6P?

17670 rated at 3.7v. Fully charged at 4.2v. The length is about 2xCR123 length and the diameter should fit the body.....no problems.

Hopefully I ordered right along with the 5 mode drop in I ordered a 2pack of 18650's and charger. These will be fitted in a SF G2.

18650s will not fill in a G2! Cancel that order and get some 17670s!

Will the 18650 fit in a 6P?
No 18650 is too wide. You need 17670's.

You can bore out a 6P quite easily to take 18650s, but the stock config won't allow it.

Cree drop in's with 17670 is sufficient I feel. I run my KL5, KL4 head and the other 2 drop ins that I have with the same type of batteries and personally, additional runtime of 15 minutes with 18650 is just not worth the effort to enlarge the bodies for fit.
