18650 holder?

Jarl · Apr 26, 2008

So. I currently have 2 6xAA holders to power my bike lights, and I'm looking to upgrade to 18650's because of the low/non-existant self discharge, lighter weight and better low temp. performance. However, I can't find any 18650 sized battery holders anywhere, and without those, there's no way I can make the switch from AA's to 18650's. Just in case you're confused, something similar to this.

Anyone know where they can be had?

I have not seen anything avalible and have looked some time. I ended up making my own using plastic plumbing piping... I found pipe of the right size and made endcaps using the joining bits for that size of pipe. The endcaps have springs I cut out of the AA style holders you have linked to.

Are there no other alternatives, seriously?
