Won’t Amazon take it back?

How hard is it to swap the battery out? Soldering required?

No Tax over here——Must be a BAMA thing —————————— :stuck_out_tongue:

Just be thankful Texas and “BAMA” are storing your Amazon goods in warehouses to keep you tax free :slight_smile:

Bah. The numbers seemed “off” when I tried ordering 2 (vipon + 15% off), went back to change the qty to 1 instead, just to see what if anything changed, and when applying the vipon code, “this code has already been used”.

Wellp, saved myself 20bux, so that’s not bad.

Musr be…. :person_facepalming:

That’s what I was thinking too, but nothing I ever receive is shipped from Alabama??

Does it apply if they have any warehouses in the state, even if your product does not ship from a warehouse in my state??

1 Thank

Yes, if they have any presence at all in the state you are taxed.

edit; actually I just looked and I guess AL is one of the states that went further and just allowed all big internet sellers to charge tax since no one properly reports it.

An inside joke BAMA / LSU

They can tax now without a presence.

Hell, I’m getting taxed by AX, and they’re in Choina! :confounded:

Wtf??

When it arrives, this will be my first Tool AAA - and I have never owed an EDC01. Maybe someone else can chime in.

I don’t have the Tool AAA, only the AA versions. I do have an EDC01 though. I’d say the main differences are twisty vs clicky and TIR vs reflector. Oh, and pocket clip vs none.

I like my EDC01 for sure. It’s so small, I usually keep it clipped (suspension clip) to my shorts every night while sleeping. Granted, I swapped the LED for a 4000K Luxeon V2 and stripped the anodizing (I bought the blue, and it was more of a Tiffany blue than I thought it would be… so now it’s raw aluminum).

Tool AAA uses the same TIR now I think. They changed it in the past few months

You’re right, the pic shows a TIR. Oops.

The stock 18650 is wrapped along a protection PCB and has 2 wires out. I simply removed the tabs from the included cell and soldered a new one in. Soldering required but it is as easy as it gets when it comes to replacing integrated 18650 cells. Led swap is pretty straightforward with enough room for triples or quads.

AAA tool Was considered the best Budget AAA light for years here on BLF.

Damn fine light

But how do you get to the battery compartment? I’m not seeing any screws to take the housing apart.
