Here is my order invoice with personal info removed: http://i.imgur.com/c91lDEj.png .
The service fee and domestic shipping was very reasonable. The shipping cost to Canada was higher than I expected but that was partly due to me accidentally choosing a more expensive shipping method.

Slight delay by recent typhoon.
Zoom in for close up.
Pros:
Uni-body design.
Reasonably bright. 2.5A with one cell.
Matte anodizing.
It only cost $20 for flashlight, charger, 2x18650 (requested not to ship with) and case.
Cons:
LB LED (as expected).
Plastic reflector.
Cheap glass lens.
No thermal paste.
PWM on low mode.
Aligning the tailcap with the body is quite tricky.

Odd, how does the driver fit in there? Guess we will have to wait for someone to get one and tear it down. The plus side is that it could be a 17mm driver inbetween the cells but that doesn’t make a lot of sense.

Weird spring/contact arrangement — both springs on the tailcap — and this is for 2 cells in series?
No electrical lockout possible, I’d guess?

I think the cells are parallel.

Come to think of it, it has to be parallel, since it says
Hm, actually interesting, if there’s a way to buy it (without junk charger and batteries bundled)

Texas_Ace:
Freeme, do you have links to these lights? I am almost glad there are not any as they look too tempting.
Also how exactly do you pay for something on taobao without giving them your entire lifes information (which I refuse to do, SS number? um, no way is that happening, or I suppose there is no way for them to check the number, you could put in a fake one maybe?). There are a few things I have wanted to order from taobao but can’t figure out any options to actually pay for them.
Just curious, am I missing something with this post? It was marked as rude.
I don’t think I was being rude but it is usually hard to see your own rudeness.
So is this just someone having a bad day or am I missing something?

Mr. Taobao would take that as rude
I don't see anything there at all - weird.
