Don't Know What A 18650 Battery Is. It Takes 3 AAA's. If They Are Dimensionally And ElectricalIy identical Then I Don't See Why not.

No, 18650 battery is too big for it. The flashlight is Powered by: 1 x AA / 1 x 14500 3.6v Battery (NOT Included) as advertised. If you need 14500 battery, please search B00FYMPSGA.

Yes. The battery is an 18650 flat top. It can be replaced. But the light must be disassembled. And there is some soldering involved.

No the 18650 is too large the 14500 will work as well as 1 AA battery. I have several of these flash lights, buy it you'll love it.

No. Gotta say, the associated batteries are unbeatable. 18650's are the best.

18650 batteries are much too large to fit in this. Besides, they are L-ion and run on different volts.

The AA or AAA batteries are of a different size and shape and the voltage is different. I found that you can order conversion kits, but the reviews on them are not good. The 18650 battery holds a charge for a long time and I find it quite convenient. I keep a second battery charged at all times in the event I need to replace.

NO !!! You need the 18650 batteries. The regular AA batteries won't work, they are too small lengthwise and will not work.

No, 18650 won't fit but 16650 will. Flat tops should work if they are long enough. I have 16650 button tops for mine, works fine.

I have the older model only with 3x AAA battery, However they do not last long, can I use the single 18650 battery in my model?

No, they are not the same battery. The 18650 is a rechargeable lithium ion battery. The cost is reasonable and, having used about 8 of this type battery, I can vouch for their longevity and utility.

Any charger that will fit the 18650 batteries. Amazon has some that are around 6 bucks and I use it. It's generic but works great.

Good Morning, I am scared to say that it will take any battery but as long as its a quality 18650 you should be safe. I just checked to be sure and dropped a few different style 18650's into the bore and all worked. The light comes with the Fenix ARB-L1t 3400 + I am tossing in 2 Xtar CR123a's. Thanks, Shane

i just looked that flashlight up on amazon and it said it takes 2-cr123a or 1-... 18650 and that is the battery you are asking about ...so yes you can use that battery

No, you cannot use these in place of an 18660. The number denotes the size of the battery. The first 2 numbers are the diameter and the next 2 are the length. An 18650 is 18mm in diameter and 65mm long. A 26650 is 26mm in diameter and 65mm long.

I really don't understand why everybody keep saying that a 18650 battery won't fit??....I have few 18650 batteries and yes, THEY DO fit in the tube of my PC20, NOT slightly big or small, they fit perfect and the light works great, I've being using 18650 battery since I purchase the light.

No...these batteries will NOT work. According to Provari's website,(google provari regular) the standard Pro Vari takes an 18490/18500 battery. You can also purchase the optional extension cap so one can use the 18650 type battery. If you do get the extension cap, get the high drain battery, one that has the positive tab/cap on top. I have purchased at least half a dozen 18650 batteries in the past year from Amazon for my high output flashlights. Little did I realize that I can now use them in my newest vaping devices as well. As an aside; the Pro Vari looks sweet, something I might look into later on, for now, I have 2 small eGO's a SMOK Tek, that uses the 18350 battery, and an Innokin iTaste VV, plus another SMOK Tek will be arriving this week some time. Hope this helps; happy vaping!
