These 16340, 18650, 2x18500 (pic above) and 2x18650 (above) bodies are for $urefire C head and C tailcap.
the 3P also known as 1x16340, SF C head and tail.

These bodies are CNC machined from high quality solid aluminum bar and aggresive knurling with 19mm bore to accept all 18500 and 18650 cells while outside diameter is same size as 9P shown in picture.
All bodies are black hard anodized with 2 o'rings (one at each side) and ready to use.
These Are FiveMega bodies in every sense. Designed and built to his High quality specs. Utilizing the very same metal shop. Proudly Made in the USA.
These bodies are specifically made to house Stock SF and LF Lamps and FiveMegas custom FM-D26 Bi-Pin socket/Reflectors (found here), and this new G4 D26 SUNLIGHT for $urefire and to use AWs new protected cells. they will also use 17mm Rechargeable and disposable cells as well. There is now extra room for those big LED drop-ins. These are built to fit AW's New Protected button top cells:thumbsup:and based on reviews, have plenty of room to spare for off brand cells as well.:poof: (good luck)
This is the case for all 5 sizes.

All single cell sizes are now available in round, or with SF style flats milled into the sides like previous FM bodies.

IMHO: If you want to use a FM D26 drop in do it in a FiveMega body, you wont need steel washers (needed on my LEEF body) or have any contact problems. There is plenty of room for long springs, button tops and protection circuits. No more crushed springs. Prices are low!

(Head, lamp assembly, tail cap and batteries are not included or available here.)

Advantage of 18mm cells are longer run time, less frequent recharge, less stress to cells, longer cell life and higher current capability compare to 17mm cells while you don't have to carry an oversized and heavy flashlight.

:caution:Paypal notes are a contract with my investor and shipper, I usually dont get to see them. My shipper also does not Read the thread. Just the PayPal Notes. Your paypal notes are your most important part of your order. Please post what you are buying here as I need to keep track of demand and supply, and will pass on what you have posted..
Simply Put your CPF Handle/NAME and WHAT you want here and in your Paypal notes!!:banghead:

POST your order here as well or I will not Get to see it at all ever! Just remember to put what you want, your real name and CPF handle in your PayPal notes.

If theres a Paypal related problem question email wonderlite.
If its private info you dont want to post then use a PM. The email belongs to the Mysterious unamed investor who knows nothing about flashlights at all. He is only putting up ALL the money and Shipping ALL the orders. Its my desire to make sure it all goes smoothly for you while only he gets paid and makes ALL the money. (oh well):help:

*First come First served.. reservations will be filled in order made, (after that then in Order of Payment)*.

For AWs new IMR16340 cells, a TiNY 3P single cell is being offered at very slim profit. the 1x16340 is a "SF 3P" it will hold AW 16340 LiMn or Li-Ion RCR123 sized cells.

Single 18500 is only 17mm (5/8") longer than 16340 but well over twice the capacity.

Low Cost Shipping (in stock items NOW ship same day) :

1st class USA $5 (any quantity) with confirmation included in cost.
USPS insured+tracked Faster Priority mail for 8$ (any quantity until the flat rate package is full)
Internationaly $8 (any quantity that is practical)


If you want insurance please choose priority mail. Im not going to raise cost of first class shipping because its not likely to break, and few people are willing to pay for insurance. you will only get it one day sooner, but it will be insured!
I ask you please insure your shipment in case it is lost or arrives damaged.
Im using new quality control measures to insure every part going out is in mint condition.
Refunds can and will be given if parts arrive damaged and insured, or have not yet shipped. A rapid exchange at our expense will solve minor problems like getting a wrong part.
No refunds, if you "change your mind" after getting your items. I have had many customers resell FiveMega products on CPFM with no problem at all. As I make no money on this labor of love, I have no money to lay out for this type of return. If you have questions please Post them Before Buying.

To everyone:
You have at your option...the choice of adding INSURANCE to any order.
Its inspected and packed well, but not insured, then we cant be held responsible for damage in transit to you.
As of now I have a NEW SHIPPER who Packs everything like glass crystal. They are inspected when they arrived, and again when shipping out.
I do not know why more people do not choose an insured method of transit for only 3$ more.
If the box or package arrives so mangled or bashed that the paint or metal is damaged that is totally beyond my control.
In the past we werent aware that post offices can destroy even a solid metal flashlight body.
thanks for your time.

Please post what you want and how many. Please dont forget shipping method. Total it all up then paypal.

Major Policy Change

Any questions about flashlights...send them to me, via Pm or even better here in the thread. He doesnt know anything about "lights" as he calls them, not illumination tools!.

also continue to post what you want in the thread and your paypal notes.

Any questions about paypal, payment methods, shipping time...Stock or inventory...Direct them to the paypal address. I do not have this info.

The investor and shipper want to make decisions in these areas, let them deal with the resulting Email from customers.....

Id only have to pass on your questions to him anyway as I dont have any inventory here or access to paypal funds.

thanks.
as you know I make no Money on this Labor of Love. :kiss:He Knows nothing about illumination tools and thinks I am crazy to want this stuff so bad. He thinks many are nuts :wave: to have spent so much on this hobby. He is just an investor. Please Do not try to contact me through him. He has someone to ship this for us.:twothumbs

PAYPAL: WonderLite(at)aol.com

yes thats (at) not @ just to stop spammers....you will use the @ symbol.


In PayPal notes put your CPF handle, What you are buying. Your name and address should come through automatically.

:poke:If you need to contact me as a last resort, use illuminationCi (at) AOL dot com:faint:

Dont worry FiveMega is backing the run. A portion of your money will be donated to FM.

UPDATE:For my international customers, so you can save money on multiple shipments: want a 6P/9P (metal and glass, anti-roll) SF head and a SF-Z-59 tail also for a complete head tail body? (still, no bulbs, or cells) add 63$ per pair, no extra shipping costs (I know a guy)

UPDATE: If your going to use a IMR 18650x2 setup I also offer the same head plus a twisty tailcap for less..so 49$ additional for a Head and a twisty 9P tailcap which can survive 2x18650 IMR cells..a Z-59 will burn out in a few seconds if used with 2 big 18650 IMR cells. This is not the case with 16340 IMR

trying to get more Z49s

Z59 + 9P head $68
Z41 + 9P head $49
9P Head alone $24 (Costs more to break up pairs.)
6PD Strike bezels 37$
A New Z-59 Clicky paired with an AW soft Starter (install yourself). 99$ in stock
A New Z-41 Twisty paired with an AW soft Starter (install yourself). 86$ in stock

Update: New accessories Available:
-my favorite tail down Holster that fits All these bodies perfectly as it was made to fit SF only $10!
Its easily taken on and off without undoing your belt but will never fall off. Even fits FM bodies with turboheads. The Holster Will Stretch to fit flashlights from AA to D size!

-A New Ultrafire WF-139 Charger $18.50, these new ones seem to work much better than the older identical models.



If you dont want too use a twisty and want a clicky with IMR 18650x2 like the Z59 do that, but add the AW soft Start switch upgrade.

USPS postal money order (mailing address pending)
Please post (or PM if private info) for alternate payment method. Yes I know its always full! so post messages if possible...

I will not be making any money on these personally:broke:...I just want these to be available to fellow CPF members and myself. I have an investor (family friend) who thinks this a good idea, he will profit from this endeavor while I will merely get the satisfaction of knowing you get the parts you need. I am only here to answer questions and let you know how to get these great bodies. Im here for the support of CPF and my hobby..I guess he is in it for the money.:sigh:

My investor has had it setup where all orders will be filled and shipped quickly. Check back here daily until I can finish editing this post.:eek:

In your paypal notes should be all info needed for your order. Then repeat the info in a post here. Then Im able to see whats going on and make a call to the shipper if needed.
The paypal addy is not mine...it has been created for this purpose, the selling of bodies by my investor to you.
No need to send me a PM (its full again?!) although I will FWD it for you. However he has all your order info in your paypal notes section, then copied here.

ill make some space for PMs if u need.

heres a disclaimer in case your planning on using batteries in my bodies..I dont sell batteries so I have no reason to post a disclaimer except to inform and warn you.

:wow::caution: these bodies are made for use with both types of Lithium cells.
this warning originally posted by AW:
All lithium based batteries have an max. operating temp. of 60 degree C. You will find the same operating temp. spec. on Emoli, A123, Sanyo, Samsung batteries with LiCo / LiFePO4 / LiMn chemistries. The electrolyte will start to degrade when exceeding the max. operating temp. Reaching higher temperature conditions ( either from external sources or cell discharging / charging ), the liquid electrolyte will expand and pressure will build up inside the cell. When the pressure build up is approaching the safety threshold, the safety valve will disconnect separating the anode / cathode ( cell dies showing 0 Volt ). If the pressure keeps rising, the laser welded vent will open and release gas/electrolyte to prevent an explosion. The common observation you 'll see is leaking of electrolyte when a vent occurs. If it was a mild vent, leaking may come after a day or two.

A safety vent / mechanical thermal protection is a standard feature of all AW branded lithium secondary batteries.

:caution:The IMR cells will not reach above 60 degree C even when discharged @ 8 - 10C by themselves. The heat from outside sources such as lamp, lamp assembly spring contact or flashlight body is something you may have to consider when using them in a high power incan light that will generate tremendous amount of heat. :poof:

In a lab regulated oven test, the safety disconnect triggers at 80 degree C after 3 minutes. The vent opens at 100 degree C after 5 minutes.

The storage temperature range of -20 to 25 degree C ( 40% charged ) is the optimum where you 'll recover 90+% capacity after 1 year of storage. Storing at 40 degree C will get you ~80% capacity after 1 year. At 60 degree C, you 'll get ~70% after 1 year.

Re: FiveMega BODIES 3P-1x16340, 18650x2, 18650x1, 18500x1 or x2 (Final)

My 2 x 18650 ("12P") is my current favorite. Has the AW soft start 3 level switch and FM D26 with 1794 bulb. Fantastic.

I walk the dogs with it for a week, used it in a mill last week for a few days and when I checked the AW cells today they were 3.79 V. Charged em back up as I'm not in the office that much it seems...

The 1 x 18650 is a nice size as well, the 1 x 16340 is good as well. Not too small.

Great product(s). Good service - got my 1xAA & 2xAA lights today, well packed.

TO everyone:

You have at your option...the choice of adding INSURANCE to any order.

Its inspected and packed well, but not insured, then we cant be held responsible for damage in transit to you.

As of now I have a NEW SHIPPER who Packs everything like glass crystal. They are inspected when they arrived, and again when shipping out.

I do not know why more people do not choose an insured method of transit for only 3$ more.

If the box or package arrives so mangled or bashed that the paint or metal is damaged that is totally beyond my control.

In the past we werent aware that post offices can destroy even a solid metal flashlight body.

thanks for your time.
