It seems that each flashlight manufacturer makes a torch with a different set of batteries........P7 use the 18650 (which I had never heard of before this torch) and the SB version uses 2 CR 21320 or something like that which I think I have..........anyway, it is like Mac and PC........if I were to get a SB light I would need a new charger and batteries............

I want another 700 Lumen-esque torch as back up........I agree that one cannot expect any service from DXE..........so if one is lucky great otherwise you are out the money..............
They beamshot was the MC-E PLI flashlight.. Using the 18650 will save you on some $$ by not having to use cr123's which are not rechargeable and cost from $1.00 to $2.00 per cell..

SB also sells chargers and batteries..
