Speaking of vipon lights… 2pak of keychain lights for 5bux (2fitty each), twisties, usb rechargeable. Look interesting (blue+green or pink+white), if anyone wants to poke around with ’em.
A few other interesting goodies there, just go’n’goggle “flashlight” and have at it.
1st one is the classic "nut" light, known for its tripod mount in the form of a nut glued on the side - classy... 
Yep, I got 1 or 2 - a waste. Lumens is wayyy lower of course.
2nd one, not sure if I have it, don't think so, but a classic cheaply made side switch zoomie. I wouldn't waste more than $5 on either, again, wayyyy over rated. I like the 1500/1000/500 lumens rating mentioned - not talk'n bout modes here.
I have purchased about 4 of these over the past 6 weeks.

Nice fitting metal head and plastic body 3 X AA. I think it has a real CREE LED in it. It says XTE but looks like a XPG2. It has some throw to it.
Nice for $5.
Thanks for the details! I will wait for better deals then.

Thorfire Q8 on sale for $64 CDN……or roughly $45 USD (I bought one a month ago)
Limited time. Limited number.
NOW DEAD
The had sold .66 when I posted. Could it be that they only had 3 lousy lights? Why bother with a sale for a few lights. When I bought mine, they had so many that it only changed it by a few points. So they must of had several dozen.

All you guys are killing me man. Every time when a great deal goes ” live ” I am away from computer. By the time I access too late. I gotta be on this thread CONSTANTLY. Ha Ha.
Great price for a fine light. Just snagged one …. Many Thanks
it’s not too late, you just need to put in the coupon code.
Strobe is bad enough, but SOS?? :person_facepalming:
Tempted anyway, but got way too many tubelights as it is. Tnx!

Manage to snag 1 this time because I am online right now.
Limit of 1. Tried for another no dice.
it let me put 6 in my cart and get the discount on all 6
What is that Osram P9 led they talk about in that wuben deal?
You are lucky man. I could not buy anymore with code.
actually, I did not buy any with the code, I just was checking. 
Sometimes with these deals, you can create a single order of multiples and it will discount all of the items. Most of the time, you are not able to reuse the code to buy a second one on a different order.
Would this be of any interest for modders or not-particularly-picky folks who need a couple of knock-around lights?
Two 18650 C8-type lights for $12.50.
I went that route… ain’t worth the ag.
Probably get a plastic reflector, plastic front-“glass”, crappy driver, crappier LED, and by the time you replace everything to make it even halfway useful, you spent more’n you could’ve paid for a Convoy or Sofirn generic C8.
Been there, done that, got the teeshirt which was too small anyway.
It’s hogwash or pipedream. In the manual they state Cree XP L2 for their L50
