Is there a favourite 18650 battery out there for DX torches.
The Senybor 2800mHa look quite popular. Am I right in thinking that the Ultrafire and Trustfire are a bit rubbish!
Just want 1 that will last the longest.
Any advice/experience please
Cheers
Trustfire been fine here - used them for a few years

I've got the Senybors you mention, got them from a UK seller and they seem fine.
Based on the discharge graphs on Torchy's website (see below) I've got and would recommend[url= http://www.qualitychinagoods.com/xtar-18700-2600mah-sanyo-protected-battery-batteries-p-1943.html ]Xtar 2600mAh's[/url] because they maintain a higher voltage during use which is more important than 300ish extra mAh's over the Senybor's especially as you need to discharge the battery to a pretty low voltage to use the extra capacity. You can get them for $13.50 by joining in on the group buy described in [url= http://budgetlightforum.com/node/2476 ]this thread[/url].
get them from torchys id on ebay...
Yep, I got mine from the real Torchy on ebay for £12.99 but the deal I've linked is approx £8.50 so if you don't mind waiting you can save a few quid.
While we're on the subject I've also just got a new charger (Xtar WP2 II) to replace the bolx I bought on DX, I got it from China through an ebay seller as Torchy didn't have it listed but you can also get it at a discounted price through the [url= http://budgetlightforum.com/node/2476 ]budgetlightforum thread[/url]. Read the reviews for it on Budgetlightforums and you'll see why it's worth getting if you're at all bothered about wrecking your batteries or burning your house down.
