At Amazon there was a “save an extra 20% at checkout when you check this box” kinda thing. But it only applied to the first flashlight. I bought 3 of the Tool AA’s and that’s how it worked out: Vipon discount on all of them, and what equated to be there extra discount just on the first one.
The description said nothing about the strobe being hidden, or mode memory - so it seems that the Strobe mode can not be avoided when using this flashlight.
Just used the 20% off coupon to grab a few Thorfire lights for ~$14 and change. For the record this was 2 different lights, I couldn’t order 2 of the same and get the coupon to apply to both.
