    Great!
    I'm going to give it a try, and even in the worst case a 18650 could work on one of my future sabers. In fact with 3 alkalines changes I save the Li-Ion battey costs.

    I'll let you know as soon as I get the materials.

You'll need to resistor any Red or Amber LEDs (if you're using those), but cool colors (blue, green, white etc) will be just fine. You'll be much happier in the long run.
    Hi again, I just wired yesterday a new 18650 battery and I can't completely understand why but it worked great as you said. even brighter than beefore with the alkalines!.

    I want to thank you so much by the way, without your advice I won't tried ever.
