A Ti McClickie 1x123 Pak & a Mac's Ti EDC arrived - both will be opened up for an AW18350 cell. Something to note:
- The McClickie Pak (& all the McGizmo "E-series" lights which include the Mule, SunDrop, Haiku and Makai) use Surefire E-series threading & O-rings at the head. The McClickie Pak measures exactly the same O-ring diameter as all SF E-eries - .750" (19.05mm).
- Mac makes his bodies using different dimensions. Mac's lights run .770" (19.56mm)
- Surefire 1" lights (6P/C2/Fury/etc.) measure .775" (19.69mm)
At this point you may be thinking "who cares, I just want to run an 18mm cell". The reason for discussing this is that I use different tooling to machine different size bores.
Lights that will run 1x18350 are final reamed to .721" (18.31mm). AW18650 800 mAh protected cells fit perfectly, at least the ones I have in the shop. Cells vary in diameter so please send your batteries when you send in your light.
E-series lights that will use 1x18650 are reamed to .729" (18.52mm). No 3400 mAh cell will fit but many 3100/2900/etc. will work.
Full size lights are reamed to .750" (19.05mm) & all current production cells will fit.
If you have a particular dimension in mind please let me know. The dimensions listed are those for which I have tooling. Boring to a different dimension usually means purchasing a specialty reamer & that can add $100 or more to the cost of the work.
