Steve, I was just thinking that you could also check with ArcticDude, as he said he only uses the Keeppower protected cells.
This way, you would get the actual size from someone who has one vs relying on various different sites with conflicting dimensions. :yh:
Your suggestion reminded me he posted in this thread, so I asked him.

Just double checking. So, a Keeppower protected 26650 will fit into a PLE-Pro 532nm?

I don't know, since unfortunately I don't have PLE-Pro

Your suggestion reminded me he posted in this thread, so I asked him.

There is few layers of electrical tape for prevent short circuit the battery. Lenght is 69.5mm diameter is 26.2mm

----

EDIT
I recomend to check batteries dimensions from AkkuTeile. I have found there is most truthful battery dimensions so far.

Bump for steve001..
Here's a reply from JL.

"I just confirmed it with our mechanical engineer and he said the limit for the 26650 diameter is 26.8mm."

According to the German site link you posted, the Keeppower protected 26650 will fit. It has a 26.6mm diameter.

Good luck, steve. Now that your question has been answered I guess the next thing to do is order some batteries. :D

It's not so simple. If you look at Arcticdudes photo of the diameter you'll see it's under the 26.8mm measurement. I count it to be a 24mm diameter. That ain't a problem. This site https://www.akkuteile.de/ lists them at 26.8mm diameter. Still to big. It seems Keeppower is inconsistent with there diameters. It's a shame because this battery gets high marks. I guess it's Efest.

That's a shame. You'd think they would get together on the battery's dimensions. I wounder if they are all the same company, or are some counterfeits getting away with using their name.

Oh, trust you.
I noticed something odd. This is the site where I was going to buy from http://www.illumn.com/batteries-chargers-and-powerpax-carriers/26650-keeppower-5200mah-protected-high-discharge-flat-top.html
I know that the diameter dimension listed said 26.98mm not what it says now 26.4mm. It's what I cut and pasted from the site and posted earlier in the thread. Must have been a typo that he corrected after our email exchange. Well this battery will fit after all.

Seems like a nice fellow, I'll give this guy a plug.
