Thanks for the warm welcome raccoon city. I hope I can find some deals that are beneficial to the forum.

I wish they had prices like that on the newer S2+ lights with the updated driver, emitter, and body color.

The prices aren't as good, but there are some deals on the updated S2+ lights as well.

• The S2+ with XP-L Hi and Biscotti is available in silver with a cool white emitter for as low as $14.96, whereas Convoy's official store sells these lights starting at $18.95. The page has this light listed as the S2, but I don't think that's correct based on the images. Other tints and colors will cost more, but they're available. I think only the silver body color is cheaper than the official store.
• The new colors are available here starting at $15.99. This is a bit less than the Convoy store, but again these lights use the older emitter and driver. If you want to avoid the tint shift, it's probably best to get it from there.

I'll keep an eye out for better deals on these lights in the future.

Some minimum will be about 55mm head, the bigger the better. I had an L2 and L6 there are old lights.

Ok. Give me a couple days I'll see if I can find a good one for you. 

Not sure that I have exactly what you want in your budget, but here's a few to look at:

• HaikeLite MT07S Hi with the XHP35 Hi LED
• HaikeLite MT07S with the XHP70.2 LED
• Utorch UT02
• HaileLite MT07 Buffalo

I'll keep looking for new products and sales, if something better comes up I'll post it.

• The Nitecore TIP CRI is 37% off, bringing it to $15.99 and claims to use a 219b

A user contacted me and told me the 348 I had on my last post was not using the claimed LED. Still waiting on mine but for now assume that light has the 219C.

Have a good weekend and ask if you are looking for deals on any other lights or recommendations and I will do my best to help. As always, these links are affiliate links.

A few new products showed up. No huge deals, but all worth a look. Most of these include batteries and built in charging, which is good for new users.

• On The Road M3 Pro at $34.57, an Olight clone with USB-C charging and an included 16340 battery.

• Wuben TO40R at $49.99 with included cell and built in charging.

• Wuben TO46R at $52.99, a triple with included cell and built in charging.

• Wuben L50 at $35.65 with included cell and built in charging.

• Wuben A21 at $149, a ramping light with included 21700 cell, built in charging, and an XHP70.

• Wuben E01 at $13.99, small AAA light. Not the best emitter used.

• Flashlight watch at $9.99. I don't actually suggest anyone buy this, but it was ridiculous enough to share with the community. Comes with compass, charging, and 4 light modes. Unspecified brand and LED. Again, do not actually recommend doing anything other than looking at this.

Hi Everyone! Here's your weekly update on the hottest deals on GearBest, as well as some new products that might be interesting.

Deals

• The Skilhunt H03 is discounted 21%, bringing it to $31.99.

• The Nitecore HC60 Neutral White is discounted 21%, bringing it to $49.99. For an extra $9 over the Skilhunt, this has more throw, an included cell, and a standard USB charging connection.

• The Convoy S2+ UV is discounted 17%, bringing it to $23.99. Great for scorpion hunting, rocks, and curing UV glue. Did you know that UV reactivity is used in gemology to grade stones?

• The Skilhunt H03 RC is discounted 25%, bringing it to $40.99. Last week these deals ran out quickly, this headlamp is quite popular.

• The Nitecore TIP CRI is discounted 37%, bringing it to $15.99. So far, high CRI keychain lights are a favorite among those reading my posts.

• The Convoy C8+ is discounted 17%, bringing it to $19.99.

• The BLF 348 is discounted 35%, bringing it to $5.99. I have confirmed this uses the 219C, not the 219B.

New Releases

• The Folomov B5M 26650 flashlight/powerbank for $79.00. Complete kit with cell included. If you are in the US, this light is around this price on Amazon as well and they may ship faster.

• The Folomov B4M 18650 flashlight/poewrbank for $52.00. Complete kit with cell included.

• The Folomov A1 launched with a 45% discount, bringing it to $5.99. This is one of the smallest and most versatile powerbank/chargers, although HKJ noted the termination voltage when charging is a bit low. Great to toss in a bag.

• The On The Road M3 Pro 16340 light with usb-C charging for $24.79. There are also versions that include cells.

As always, feel free to ask if you're looking for recommendations or for deals that are not on this list. In addition to finding deals, I can always reach out to my contacts at GearBest to see if they can make you a coupon on certain items. If you find anyone getting in to the hobby and looking for a place to start, feel free to send them my way as well.

GearBest asked me to share a promotion they’re running, the Utorch SF01 is on sale for $9.99 with the code GBUtorchSF01. This light claims to be compatible with CR123, AA, and AAA batteries, which would make it a great backup light.

I believe it's CR123 only.

It would be extremely strange if it worked with CR123, AA, and AAA batteries.

That's what I thought, but my person at grrarbest says it works .Can't find any review to confirm .

On the "page of the flashlight":https://www.gearbest.com/led-flashlights/pp_009967770927.html, itself, there is a video that seems to confirm that it is only for CR123 cells. At least judging by the space left: https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=2&v=xgp1XJJzpkQ Funny thing is: is this a "1 mode at a time" flashlight, or it can also be a "3 mode" flashlight? The UI operation is not completely clear :|

That's what I thought too. I'll make note in the post, thanks for the feedback.

Looks promising. If anyone buys this light, let me know what cells it works with and I will update.
