Would you still buy xenon lights that dont take 18500/18650 cells?

Now that I have been bitten by the light bug for quite a while, I came to the conclusion that I am no longer interested in incan/xenon lights that do not take the 18mm cells. There is enough good manufacturers that can satisfy my needs, so I guess that no more Surefire lights for me or others that only take the 17mm cells (17500/17670)........

What about you?

hard to beat the 18650s,
just a tad biger but much more power inside

I would prefer li-ion cells with 34mm diameter for my incandescents.

Cernobila, I also agree, I will do it but it needs to be something special. It really annoys me to be using 17670 with 1400mah when I know 18650 with 2200mah are available. Only having 2/3rds the power when I could have full power :shakehead
