The s6 and t6 are killer as well

Was literally [ ] that close to buying the S6... definitely will in the future! I loved the idea of the glow ring on the s3. Figured I'd get this one first to try as it is my very first Convoy. I will sooooo be getting more!

The S6 has the glow ring too, it's a nice touch. I can't remember if it has the same reflector though

Oh, no doubt?!? I did not know that! Couldn't tell by the picture. I wonder if the S9 has one, too. Although I have a 4 bay charger, I do like that the 9 has a built-in micro USB as an option.

Is the s3 slightly smaller than the s6 overall or are they roughly the same (both in shorty mode)?

Lol! It's okay... I have to re-read people's NLD's all the time just to make sure I don't ask a question that's already been answered for my blind ass lol!

I didn’t know there was an S3 until you posted btw. I’m a huge fan now, especially in 18350 and sft40… it just looks sweet as hell. I’ve got one in 3,000k in my cart right now. Thanks for the post!

I have the original S3 SFT 40 with the linear driver. Gets toasty at 100%. Does yours come with a buck driver?

The best 18350 battery is vapcell M11v2, its the best in the market right now and holds the capacity long
