Yeah, there are certainly AA lithium batteries around that can be used in the L2D.

But, the confusion here might have to do with the difference between lithium and lithium-ion (Li-Ion) batteries. The 18650 batteries as referenced in the first post are Li-Ion but they are not the same as AA lithium batteries.

Li-Ion are rechargeable, but regular lithium are not. And as far as I know (and I could be mistaken) there aren't any Li-Ion rechargeable batteries in AA size. There are, however, lithium batteries in AA size (non-rechargeable).

I might be a bit off in my interpretations...but I think the lithium versus lithium-ion is the point of confusion as related to the original post and compatibility with the L2D.
