I recently dropped Prime again and the TF light didnt have a free shipping option, so I passed on it instead of spending More.
Yeah⌠I had to buy 4 to get Free ShippingâŚ. :person_facepalming:
So I just âneededâ to get 1 more?? DamnâŚ
Normally, I keep a few items Iâd want at some time, but not immediately, so in case I need something to put it over the free shipping threshold, itâs there.
Damn.
Yeah, I think free shipping kicked in at $25. Anyway the 4th one was when it kicked in for me. I added them 1 at a time till it did. Free Shipping was calculated on the regular price before the discounts too.
Gaaaah!
I still gots more to learn on how to game the systemâŚ
Amazon Prime can be shared with family to split the annual fee. Same with Netflix. I piggy back on my sonâs Prime and he uses my Netflix. Just add your CC and shipping address to Prime account . They donât have to live in the same house or even city for that matter.
Pretty good deal on a vice for small modding projects:
Woot is owned by Amazon now I think and you can use your Amazon Prime for free shipping and login with that info.
Thorfire PF04 Silver for $6.99
Go get emâ

Just ordered two
Thanks Muto, just ordered the limit⌠2 Silver & 1 Red.
Tried to order 2 red ones but it would only allow 1. The silver can be ordered in a qty. of 2 for free shipping if you donât have prime.
These came in yesterday, nothing to write home about; but definitely worth the price. And the additional 10% OFF Coupon stacked on 1 of them too. 
I saw that deal yesterday but didn't post it because it didn't appeal to me enough...
D'oh!
The build is pretty decent but the tint and output on AAâs is pretty bad. I am not sure how easy these would be to mod. I have only built P60âs and C8âs. If someone cones up with a good mod plan please let me know. I could see these as nice AA lights for my kids. Not sure about running a 14500 on these since I am unsure about the internals.
Thanks
Nooooo, not so great.
If theyâre actually Thorfire lights, I think Thorfire should reconsider having their name on the lights at all.
Not at all the usual TF quality on, well, any other TF lights. These are the kind of lights youâd expect from a seller called HappyFun or WolfZoom or something.
Hardware-wise, they donât seem too bad, but nasty nasty emitter and cheapcrap driver.
Should be moddable, just pry out the driver (didnât measure, but might be 17mm), unsolder the LED board, replace both.
Itâs worth about what we paid for it $3⌠so ultimately not really a bad or good deal
Yeh. I forgot if I mentioned this in the post, but if you forget about it as a light, and buy it just as a host, you should be happy with it.
Just like most â68s and â98s, you redo them to your liking, and they donât suck so bad.
No more free ship from Amazon. Makes the deals not so great any more 
Yep, Iâm gonna hafta go back to the old way of âbundlingâ things.
What gets me, though, is that most of the time even with free-shipping items, theyâll sit on the order for a week or so, and if you have multiple things sitting in the hopper, send alllll those in the same box.
Wonder if you pay the standard-shipping for multiple items, if theyâd do the same thing.
On the bright side, I ordered âFour Box, 4 bayâ 21700 storage cases [note the plural] from seller âPcoilâ. Umm, sure sounds like 4 boxes, each one a 4-bay box to hold 4 cells, no? Apparently not. Got 1 box. Couldâve just returned it for free, grexing about a misleading title or headline or whatever you call it. Did a live-chat with Amâs customer service, they said keep it, and weâll still refund your bux. Pretty kewl, eh?
Similarly, the shirt I got to pad the order for those CT01s was grotesquely small. Got other shirts that fit fine, so this shirt (or maybe their whole line) âran smallâ. After the fact, I saw the sellerâs reviews, pretty good, saw a few reviews âyeah, the shirt ran small as indicatedâ. Arrrgh. Click the return thingy, got my label, will be returning the shirt no hassle.
So I guess it all evens out. I ainât gotta run fasterân the bear, just fasterân youâŚ
