Closed Orcatorch D710

[Robert H. Diver]

Orcatorch D710, excellent condition. Selling only because I want all my lights to be the same. My others are the D530’s. Comes with 2 batteries, spare o-rings, charging cable, and case. $110 shipped CONUS.

Price drop.

Important to note -- which is NOT in the OrcaTorch specs -- the battery is a 21700, so requires a different charger than your usual 18650 charger.

These 21700’s have a charge port on the battery, the short black cable seen in the picture is the charging cable.

totally worth the price.

I agree, the charging port is nice, I have than on my D530 too, an 18650.
But I still need to carry extra batteries on a dive trip and hopefully all the same size so they are interchangable, and my other batteries do not have a charging port.
It is disingenuous of OcraTorch to never mention the battery size.
The D710 for sale is a good deal; but for me the different battery is a deal-breaker.

It comes with two so that would get people through most situations, I bought two extra (not their brand) just because I hadn’t tried this battery size before, I had previously preferred 26650 batteries but I’m liking the smaller size of this light, good quality 18650 is a pretty nice power supply and probably the best bet for a universal size.

As far as I understand it, the 26650 is becoming more and more obsolete in favor of the 21700..

Dies anyone know if the 21700 will fit in the same space as the 26650? In a sleeve? I think they're ~ 5mm longer.

26650, 21700, 18650 sized lights

21700 (not orca and slightly shorter than the orca battery) and 26650

diameter

26650 light with 21700 in it

Orca 21700 and Lion 21700

it would only take a very thin sleeve to use one in the fatter case.

Nice, thanks for the comparison.

There is a 3D printable sleeve on thingiverse to go from one to the other.

Any recommendations on which 21700 to get? I "think" the ones with the USB port are longer than the others, and 21700 are supposed to be a little longer than 26650 (but I think they would fit).

I only have 4 21700 batteries, to from Orca and two I bought from Liion and they all test out well, probably not popular enough yet to have the market flooded with fakes.
