Maglite 18650 Adapter Mod upgrade with charging capability 3d printed 

Hahaha you are a charecter, I appreciate the way you keep yourself entertained man, I have a similar sense of humor. I never thought I would be subbing a flashlight mod/review. Nice work too by the way.

USB rechargeable mag light,that doesn't roll around. Well done sir.

I have one of these flashlights and this should do great for it. It's been sitting not used because I hate buying D cell or even C cell batteries for things. Thanks!

Subbed. I love your presentation style!

That's a nice design man. I'm probably trying my own soon for that same Mag. Quick question: can you charge the two batteries design with that same board? Regarding software I am using Autodesk Fusion 360. It has so far a free license for enthusiasts and startups and is quite easy to learn. It also has an automatic feature for doing threads over a cylinder which is surprisingly easy to use, although I'm not sure if it will be able to recreate this particular one easily. I have only used it for metric ones.

Great stuff thanks! When will the 2 cell version be available?

Personally for me the large hexagonal bit at the bottom sticking out spoils the sleek design of the torch. I have one of these mag-lites and I'm looking to convert mine into using LEDs and 18650s. Would it still work well if the 3D printed part was the same diameter as the outside of the torch, or are the PCBs too wide to fit in? I mean, it would still stop it rolling as the two pivot points are the bulb end and the bottom. I don't have a 3d printer, but I do know someone who has one that I'm sure I could use.

nice work mang, thanks for sharing, keep up the good work!...upgrade the old things! down with alkaline! put 18650s in all of the things!

Makes me want to buy a 3d printer.

What happened to the other design?

when is the 2 bat ver available? been 5 years

Awesome! Would you be willing to share the source files for this model (not just the compiled STLs)?

Cool

Would you be willing to make and sell me one for 5 d-cell batteries? Internal total space of 5 d-cells add to a total height of 11 7/8.” Three 18650 batterie should add to roughly 9 3/4,” therefore leaving nearly 2” of free space. Love the design and ingenuity, but I don’t have the materials to make something like this. I thought about making a PCV sleeve and just putting batteries inside the original housing, but your setup is so slick!

cold you sell me one for a 2 D cell
