OH YEAH!
Thanks for finding those. :thumbsup:

the Z2 at it's thinnest point is .760 OD, with a 19mm bore (.741") you would have a wall thickness of .019" VS the stock .070".
that's way to thin IMO..
the Z3 is .823 OD so yes, it could be bored out to 19mm and retain a safe sidewall of .082"
even the E series lights have a wall thickness of .107 stock, bored out to 19mm they'd have about .040" which would be safer than boring out a Z2.
Moddoo, great video. Thanks for doing all this testing with the Z2 and also the C2. :twothumbsWell, here is the first of many tests for this light.
If you are rougher than this with your lights, then, IDK what to tell you.

Next month, I should be ready to order a C2 bored for 18650 so I hope you'll still have of these!

nice video for the dramatic effect, but not a true test of durability.
It is true that most of us aren't very hard on our lights but logic tells us that with a wall thickness of a business card there will be a failure at some point.
Does anyone think there would be enough demand for a small run of Z2 and Z3 clone bodies capable of taking 18mm cells?
the only problem would be getting the rubber grip rings.. unless surefire sells them.
