Amazon

It has a stackable instant savings coupon.

I used the serch function and used LuxPro. To see all deals from biggest discount to smallest order, I click Instant Deals as the top of the page and then select Discount for order.

1. May I know why the big difference between the prices of the same 20-pack Morpilot in Vipon and Amazon?

2. Would anyone know who makes this Morpilot brand?

Edit: 3. I tried the Vipon link, got their discount code, proceeded to their Amazon store, but where do I apply the code?

I picked some up. I havent attempted a capacity check on any of them. I dont expect much — but for some of my automation sensors they should work for a time.
You apply the coupon code on the last page of amazon checkout.

After applying the coupon code, will the price go down to $4.60/20-pack as per Vipon’s page?

Make sure you click the 10% off coupon on the main Amazon page as well. They combine to the cost.

Haha, I beg for your indulgence, as I am new to this promotion.

After using the 10% Amazon, will the price be $4.60/20-pack, or even lower?

Edit: Will the ‘apply coupon code’ appear only after the ‘choose your address’ ?

Yeah, scroll down & you should see the “Apply Coupon Code” box.

You see, this is my first time to use a coupon code in Amazon, though I have made several orders before. What I don’t exactly remember is after clicking the ‘deliver to this address’, will that be the next step where you can ‘apply coupon code’? And if the code is used, will that bring down the price to $4.60 for the pack of twenty CR123s? Seems like a too cheap to be good deal.

My address comes up automatically, so I’m not sure about that. But, as long as you ‘Apply Coupon’ before you ‘Place Order’ it should work fine.
.
EDIT: When I do it I have the opportunity to apply the coupon at any time before I actually place the order… IIRC.

Hang on a few minutes & I’ll run through the whole process & report back. :slight_smile:

Well, I was doing as instructed, clicked on the ‘promotion code’ and pasted the given code, (it was after the ‘choose your address’) but didn’t see any price in the page, just a box to continue…I was hesitant to continue for IIRC, Amazon just can be fast in announcing ‘order placed’…in contrast to using Paypal where there many ways to check the final amount before the ‘pay’ stage.

OK…. I just placed an order. You can apply the coupon code anytime after ‘Proceed to Checkout’ but before ‘Place Order’.

You must hit ‘Continue’ when it asks you to, otherwise you cannot proceed.

If something screws up you can always immediately ‘Cancel’ your order.

You should be able to see the price change in detail after you ‘Apply the Code’.

Your order will not be placed before you click on ‘Place Order’. :+1:

How much was it?

The total for my CR123 order was $4.80 after all coupons, but I think the Vipon coupon might have just expired.

KuoH

Believe!

If indeed those cr123s are of decent quality, you guys just got a real good deal!

I will sacrifice one to do a capacity test, I have a RC hobby charger, on what settings should I do the discharge test? What is the industry standard? 500mah? to what voltage? 2.5v?

If it’s a 1450mAh cell, then 500ma is .3c…that’s good enough.

I don’t know the industry standard for testing uniform capacity but discharging down to 2.8 volts, the usual termination voltage of several chargers is I believe appropriate enough for ‘our’ standards at least!

I ordered a Digital TV Antenna…. it was $10.79 ’out the door’. :wink:

Did you get it to work for you tatasal??
