Can i use a 18650 Panasonic unprotected 3400 mili amp. battery in my new 930 lumen Cycle Beam flash lite?

I'm not sure. Here's why, I had issues getting extra batteries because a few with the same model number were shorter than what it came with, so there was no contact and the light did not work. Using the original as a guide, make certain the replacement is the same length. The larger capacity sounds good.

No, the 18650 is both slightly longer than two CR-123a's and larger in diameter. Also, they run 3.3-4.2V as opposed to 5.6-6.4V total for two 123a's - the LED flashlight must be designed to accommodate them. Many two '123a cell lights made in the PRC, like my Olight M21 & M22 and Fenix PD-35, will use them - and work better, too. None of my 2-cell US-made Surefires will fit them - the body tube's ID is too small.

You can use 18650 I use them and mine has not presented any problem. It will use 4 1825 with with sleeves . I have an 1865000 lumen with 15 cree t6 led and I have the same 18250 in it and it works super well

Either one 18650 lithium battery or two CR123A batteries will do. My favorite flashlight because it is the brightest one for it's size. Plenty bright outdoors and brightness can be reduced for indoors. Nice wide beam. Fits in your pocket. Don't order from China though. I've gotten two pieces of junk from there. Pay a couple of extra dollars and order directly from Amazon. You won't be disappointed.

I have the panasonic camera lumix DMC-FH20 and use the battery Lumix Panasonic model no./N*DE DMW-BCF10PP 3.6V 940mAh 3.4 Wh li-ion, so I don't know if it will work and what camera you are using it for.

Can't be. An 18650 is WAY bigger than a CR123A and has 2-3,000 mAh. In a word...unpossible.

There are certain Cree flashlights & other Cree lights that use that type of battery. U just have to search which ones. Hope this helps you.

Radio Shack Brand Ultralast #18500 Lithium Phosphate 3.2V Battery. I dont normally do this but i am suggesting you return that flashlight while u still can. I had purchased two and had to return one almost instantly after receiving it and the second is dead. No matter how many diff fully charged batteries i replace in it, it refuses to work. Trust me SEND IT BACK. Pelican makes a less exspensive dive light that works very well.

The only batteries I've used so far are Titanium Innovations CR123's and the Orbtronic 3400 18650b here http://amzn.com/B00BJ8W3KC. No problems with either!

I can't say for specifically for that light but I recommend being very cautious. The voltage on these batteries run higher than standard (Duracell or Energizer) batteries and they burnt the circuitry in my Gander Mtn. 350 Lumen Tactical light. I could smell the burnt electronics inside.

No. A 18650 battery is much larger. This one accepts a 14500 battery which is explained in the following article; http://lightsngear.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-the-14500-lithium-battery/

Milliamphour is a standard measure of a batteries capacity. So a 1000 mAH battery can deliver 1000 mA for one hour down to its rated discharge voltage. I use surefire 123As disposable lithium batteries. Lithium have the highest energy density. You could also use a single rechargeable 18650 instead of two 123As. They will self discharge, but a still pretty good if you use it regularly. Panasonic cells are highly rated, but I have no personal experience with 18650s.

I would imagine not. 14500 run at ≈3.7 V. You stick two of those in your maglite, you are going to be running 4 times what this bulb is designed to run on. Perhaps if you could make a dummy battery so you run on only one, it might work.

All my flashlights only uses two cr123's but if yours uses 4 theoretically you should be able to stack them as most flashlights that are cr123 are designed to run 18650's as well. Good luck.

No batteries, I would suggest a nice set of 18650 lithium rechargeable batteries and charger. Do not buy an unreliable brand of battery, you need a good protected cell like the PANASONIC, I suggest ORBTRONIC, Sal from the business sells here on Amazon as well as his own ORBTRONIC site.You can use the disposable CR123 lithiums but they will not last even half as long as the good 18650 cells. I use ORBTRONIC 3100mah 18650 rechargeable batteries and have for 2 years in multiple lights and have not had one problem. This is the most cost efficient option by far.

Yes I use a Nuon 18650 2600 mAh and 3.6V it works great. Two of the cr123 work great also just make sure to use the included plastic sleeve to keep them from rattling. The light itself works great I've used some surefires and 5.11's and I prefer the O-light
