Just popped up on Alibaba today, uses 16340 batteries, so 16mm by 34mm in length. Looks like a good wholesale price for the kit. I think it must be the ZMAX chip, probably V1. Claims to be "Stainless" colour, hard to tell but it looks like it may be stainless steel.

Battery Life sounds a bit sus for a 16340

I think you use two of them, hard to tell eyebrook, tube looks a bit long otherwise, so probably stacked.

Just looked again and I think you are right robby

I quite like the look of that, but stacked batteries is a bit off-putting

Yes, it is a bit, but it`ll be a smaller device with the thinner batteries and tube. I`ve sent Fastteck the link

Still - you can get AW and Efest 16340 IMR's
At least you could be sure of keeping the battery pairs together with this - unless of course you have anything else that uses them!

I have messaged a few venders about it as well as Fasttech, I`m sure they will be all over the place soon. That ZMAX chip performs pretty well with two batteries, been using a ZMAX for the past few days on and off and liking it
