I have had my Phaethon for close to a year now and love it. 18650s Panasonic seems to be the best but the 'genuine' units on ebay are a little hit and miss, some pairs getting me around 8 hours of light on the 3rd brightness setting where some pairs only get me 2 hours before it blinks saying its half flat so I suspect they are just generic units made to look like the real deal.
The pelican 1010 case is perfect for these batteries and fits at least 4 pairs of 18650s (what I carry) but you should get an extra pair or maybe even 2 in.
