18650 batteries are better IMHO.

Hang on...will a 18650 battery drop straight in to replace 3 AAAs in the little holder thing?
If so, my 5W Cree LED torch is about to get a whole load more useful...

depends on length of aaa holder, 18650 batteries are a lot longer(65mm plus a little for protection circuit) , but some torches are made to use both so battery holder extends length of aaa's (44.5mm) to 18650 length, if holder is just big enough for aaa's then likely you will need an extender for torch tube, if not, won't fit.

If you just need the extender, just choose "extension part in the check box." The "18650 battery charger set"option gives you the battery, charger and ring.
I got mine last week to put 18650 in my Aldi Cree 5W. Works a treat.
