Hello all,

My 1st post in the C&M forums. I'm looking to do my 1st LEGO - take the head of my Nitecore Extreme (a stock 1x123 light), and bump up my runtime by mating w/ a 1x18650 body w/ SF E-series head. Tail? I'm open to suggestions, but my preference would run to something recessed / tail-standable.

The NEX I have has the SS bezel, and the Nitecore is a sorta olive/natural/earth HA. Here it is compared to a black PD20:



Much thanks to gswitter for helping educate me via PMs. Unfortunately, he doesn't have a spare tube to sell :poke: :grin2:

Fingers crossed,
Chris

Im interested in this form factor also. I have a couple aleph heads that Id like to mate with a 18650.

Personally Ive always dreamed of a 18650 McClicky Pak. Or a 18650 like this in aluminum.

Fivemega made a 1X18650 for the E series heads that would work for you.

Yeah, I saw that - too late :scowl:

Seems now that I'm looking for this, there were a few TBs, MMs, and Leefs in the previous weeks/months that (had I been quick enough) would have fit the bill.

I'm also trying to decipher TnC's offerings ... SF-tubes, EDC-flex, adaptors, v1, v3, v5, .... :hairpull:

Yes, yes, I just need to simply contact them.

But thanks :wave:

Send me an email. I may have a spare E-head tube.

The well-packaged Mirage_Man 1x18650 and Aleph standard tailcap arrived Friday! Now comes the interminable wait for my (1st) four protected AW 18650 batteries, on the slow boat from HK. :(

Thanks again, Donn!

I was just about to post a WTB asking for the same thing, does anyone know where I can find another one?
