All this talk lately of the sf e2e has me looking at the Tads bi pin and 3712 bulb for power. For many years, I used a Veleno drop in, but that 16650 keepower just will not fit. The bezel does not screw down all the way. There is perhaps a little less than 1mm of interference, and I imagine the o-ring just will not do its job.

I have noticed that the Tads bi pin looks much shorter, but I have no way to check.

Would anyone be kind enough to check for me, or perhaps you are using one already and would be nice enough to let me know? Love the Veleno, but I would love to go back to incandescent, AND use those 16650 batteries which I really prefer these days.

Much thanks.

I have E2E with Tad adapter and KP16650. Fits perfect without any issues.
Incans are just great!!

Fantastic. Much thanks!
That E2E is just one light I ALWAYS go back to. They're incredible.

Sorry to hijack your thread but what kind of performance are you looking at with 3712 bulb and 16650?

I'm happy with 80 advertised lumens shown on Tad's site.
