WTB: 18650 Host

[cd520]

Looking for an unused/unwanted 18650 host/heatsink. Thanks.

Jayrob's Stainless Steel 18650 kit is the absolute BEST host ever made.

Everything you need is right there.

I already have a SS 18650 kit coming for a a140 build, but in probably 2 weeks from the backlog. Was looking for something quicker to put a LOC or 405 in. I snagged one of Mohrenberg's cheapie hosts in the hopes I can get a 18650 squeezed in it. I'm still looking if anyone has one to get rid of.

Pssh, who needs anything else? I'd buy every laser in the SS18650 kit if I could.

I hear ya and agree. They are gorgeous hosts. Once I get everything built I may slowly start transplanting into SS hosts one by one. I definetely want all my units to run off 18650's. I want runtime plus I've got a crapload of them already.

My fiancee is ready to kick my ass already. "You have how much in this laser pointer??!!" I'm like, its not a pointer, its a real laser lol. Her reply, "AND?".

lol.
You'll soon learn not to tell her what you've spent. It's better if they don't know

I'm fairly positive an 18650 can be stuck in my hosts.

If you come up short on space, check the tail cap. It seems to have a plastic "filler" in it.
You can take that out to allow even more room.
