I'm currently looking for a V1 18650 Lavatube.... yes, the original black and ugly one with the plastic end caps.
Any vendors have these in stock? or are they discontinued/never to be made again?

I currently have one but after 2184 miles of the appalachian trail the 510 connector and top plastic part keep falling out.... need to find another for a PCT hike.


Also, any suggestions for anything similar in performance AND weight? (lightweight is what I'm after.... the new SS LT versions look nice and have performance upgrades, but, they are too heavy for what I plan on using them for)


If you have a used one you'd like to sell, I'd be interested in it as well. (yes, I do have a WTB thread)

How about the young june lt? I have one, it's lightweight and up to par.

or Tropical Vapors has the same thing they are calling the Vari-tube. No chrome just painted black or silver.
I use it all day at work in a steel fabrication shop so I dont mess up my expensive ones, and its lightweight and holds up like a champ.
