Is that 2 18650 option important for you? There are many hosts available in the 2 18500 configuration. The only option i can think of ATM for a 2 18650 host is a bored Surefire 9P with a abore A19 extender, available from oveready.

Search CPFMP for Fivemega 18mm bodies sold by WonderLite... You can PM him and see if he has any in 2x18650 config... But I know he has some extenders as well so you could go with 1x18650 host in combo with 1x18650 extender... Fivemega are generally very good quality hosts...

Second option for you is to try to find Surefire 9P with A19 extender then bore both for 2x18650 (like yifu suggested)...

Then you have an cheaper option of getting Solarforce L2P host and get their 18650 extender... this is the cheapest route, Solarforce has a nice quality hosts as well, not as tough as first two options but durable and, like I said, nice... and for a fragment of price compared to FiveMega and Surefire route... these hosts come with inner diameter of 18,6xmm already so no boring required... on a side note, I find L2P tailcap funny but you could order S10 to go well with that long combo you have in mind...

You might be able to get somebody to mod that battery holder for you to put the cells in series. Otherwise, I can't think of any side-by-side P60 hosts.

I have never seen an 18650 side by side host, but it's a great idea for pocket carry. You could try a single 18650. Surefire would have to be bored to 18mm+. Less expensive hosts may already exist for the 18650.

Thanks for the answer guys.

I might have been a little unclear, but i HotWire got it; the host should be 2 x 18650 side by side. I have plenty of 2 x 18650 hosts, but they are long :(

A 18650 side by side will make a GREAT host, IMO. Just think about the Lupine Piko Mini, it's 8,7 centimeters long and uses 2 x 18650 side by side.

FiveMega should make one host like this...

Did you notice that those hosts support 4x 18350 cells in 2P2S (or is it 2S2P?) to run at 8.4 volts? If it's just 8.4 volts that your after, those hosts are capable. If it has to be two 18650 cells side by side, then you'll have to keep looking.
