This forum is for custom flashlights, not for other custom items. It may be re posted at the Market Place in the appropriate forum. This thread is closed.
I am posting up some parts I've therefore made molds for and can reproduce for anyone that is interested. I've used several for my own DIY light projects, which range from 300 - 2000+ lumen setups.
"Recently was playing with some 2 part plastic resins, and after good strength results decided to make some new cell holder molds.
Result was several high quality DIY holders for 18650 Li-Ion cells.
Several options and common wiring configs, all of which I've adapted to many of the lights I have kicking around."

A few info updates:
What I offer are DIY kits. You will get the parts as pictured above, and you will need to supply the wiring and wire harness for your particular light or charger setup. Wiring is entirely up to you.
It is perfectly OK to solder the tabs once they are installed on the holder. The plastic has a high melting temp (high enough).
Solder to one side of the hoop directly on the top surface, don't bother with the wire hoop.
Drill holes is needed as shown here >>
