somehow I have the feeling the number of ppl wanting 26650 bodied lights increases daily.
Could someone pls give me some info on why?
:thinking:
the body is so much bigger, that the light is way worse to pocket.
The cell is 2 times bigger than 18650, but the cells available have a nominal of just 4.000 mA (so a real 3.200-3.500) ((and are "just" unprotected), while the 18650s offer a real 2.700.
So what is the gain, maybe I did not get it yet?
(for now my 26650+26500 bodies remain shelf queens, till there are cells that really do offer some advantage to eat the bigger size of the light. That might start with something like 5.000 mAh)
