I have serious doubts that 1000 lumens OTF is realistically obtainable with a single 18650 using an XM-L T6. Most lights in that category seem to top out at about 750 lumens. There are a variety issues.
The driver isn't 100% efficient, so in order to get to 1000 lumens OTF you need to dissipate 12-15 watts, and that's tough to do for any length of time in small flashlight and tough to draw that level of continuous power from a single 18650. Even if you can , the run time at that level from a single 3100 mAh 18650 is likely to be on the order of 40 minutes. Even then it would probably be necessary to reduce the output within a few minutes to prevent the LED from being 'cooked'. Essentially all small high ouput LED flashlights incorporate thermal management to 'step down' the output in order to provide reasonable LED life.
I know that with a Crelant 7G6GS with a pair of CR123A and an XM-L U3, you can get a little better than 700 luments OTF. I'd rate the prospects of 1000 OTF lumens from an XM-L T6 and a single 18650 battery as nil and 900 lumens is very suspect. When it comes to rating output from flashlights, once you get away from the established names, there is a lot of wishful thinking, and much of it is well beyond the realistic limits of the LED, Battery and heat sink capability. At this point XM-L T6's are well 'behind the curve'.
Even with an XM-L2 U2 with a single 18650, 1000 lumens OTF is just barely possible, and I don't know any of the 'big names' that offer such a capability. That suggests to me that it isn't easily accomplished, otherwise it would be offered for sale. If it looks to good to be true, odds are it IS to good to be true. So if you are expecting to get 1000 lumens or even 900 lumens for more than a few minutes at a time out of an XM-L T6 with single 18650 in a small body, disappointment is virturally guaranteed.
