I stopped by a Menards store on my way back from school this week and found these little hosts. They are built for a single AA cell so they work great with a 14500 battery.

These kits are intended for a single 14500 cell and a microboost/flex drive.
They come with the parts you see in the picture (host,PCB board,plastic pill, heatsink)
I'll also include some silicone wires from Flaminpyro to assist you with your build.

I've got 8-7-6-5 available. They are $15 Shipped in the USA
International customers add $3.

Is it just me, or does that Guidesman logo look like a rip-off of the Star Wars logo?

He was talking about the Cree ones. the "wrong" ones they sent me instead.
I don't know if i'll ever get to do those after 20 wrong hosts and $200 later.

So i'm just making the cree ones and going down the apollo list in case people still want them.

I was gonna say, I thought you were still waiting on them to send you the right host.

Yeah...I complained and got a generic response of "Well, they're pretty much the same thing" even though the inside dimensions are different...they offered me $10 refund and that was it.

I haven't responded to them yet. Trying to decide if i should even bother arguing with them, or just leave them 1 star ratings on all of the transactions.
