you can use any cell combination as long as Vin < 4.2V.

so 2x14500 = :poof:

I am surprised no one has modded the AA extension to make a 1x17670

Sorry for not being clear enough.

That light can take

Option 1) 2xAA cells as long as they are not lithium rechargeables
Option 2) CR123A or RCR123A cells.

You need to add the included extension tube to convert from CR123A mode to 2xAA mode.
