18650s are bigger than AA 14500 are AA sized and are the ones that tim uses.

I would talk to tim about getting a custom pack made.

I like the idea of the long Li-Ion pack just in the thin neck, I found some rechargeable CR123 battery's:

Could i make a pack outta those? I know they are tiny

I made battery packs that so far I'm VERY pleased with for my current sabers. They are made of 7x NiMH AAA's and each of them is 1.2v and 1000mAh. For a total of 8.4v rating, that battery pack is powerful enough to run my luxeon V LED's, yet gives me around an hour of runtime with the Luxeon V's and even longer with K2's or luxeon III's.

Now here's the best part... I used super glue to mount them into a barrel roll and all 7 of them in this way fit INSIDE A STANDARD MHS TUBE!!! Talk about saving battery space!!!! It's been the perfect setup for me.

here's some pictures of how I made the battery packs.

That a great idea. But one thing, are you charging those batteries on a recharge port? But great work anyways. And where did you get thouse batteries at?

[SpectreT65]

based on the fact that there are wires going from the other 9V connector into the end cap, yes, there's a recharge port. Second, those appear to be common Duracell brand Nickel - Metal Hydride rechargeable AAA batteries, commonly available nearly everywhere batteries are sold. Local Wal-Mart or Target, for example.

Thanks I'll check those places for those type of batteries.
