It appears that the TN32 runs the three 18650 batteries in series for a nominal 11.1V (why not in parallel for 3.7V)? Anyway, my real question is about using protected cells in this light. In this review, JohnnyMac writes that the TN32 can only accept cells up to 69mm, which rules out a lot of Panasonic-based protected cells. I'm a little nervous about running unprotected cells in a multi-cell light, especially if it doesn't have a low voltage cutoff. I can't tell from any of the reviews or Thrunite specs whether the light will cutoff when the cells get low. I'm guessing that since they're in series there is no cutoff.
I'm inclined to use unprotected NCR18650B cells since Panasonics are quality cells with their own internal protection against runaway thermal events. Any advice?
