My sand-colored 5000K shipped this morning, evidently. 
I got the message that my Silver 6500k was send 12.26 CET It’s funny that I chose today as last shipping day, they just made it! I had thought I would cancel it to get a copper xpl hi 6500k until I discovered the price 
Anyone know when bg ship you the wrong item (not related to the flash light order in this case) what are the chances of them fixing it? I ordered other items at the same time and they shipped me something else completely and marked my items as delivered. I opened a case and they are ignoring me so far. I just hope the light don’t end up with same fate. I am going to file a cc dispute by eod today but don’t want to jeopardize my light. It’s ordered at the same time but with a different order number
Odds are very good, but it depends on what you mean by “fixing” it. They are a company and their margins on items are small. Luckily they can ship items pretty cheaply. It is crazy expensive for you to ship to them. Especially if customs adds an extra $90 fee on top of your $30 or $40 shipping cost. So depending on the item it’s cheaper for you to keep it. Typically they will try to “fix” the problem as cheaply as possible. First they ignore you a bit hoping you will go away. Be persistent. Next they will offer some type of monetary compensation. Maybe store credit. Be persistent. Eventually they will offer to the send correct item or just the correct part of the item (like a flashlight head with the correct tint if they sent you the wrong color). This is usually fine for the customer and the company saves a little extra money by not sending a whole light (smaller and lighter box means cheaper shipping costs for them). Sometimes they have to ship a complete light. This really hurts a company that makes small margins.
Keep in mind a lot of Chinese companies, and companies in general, use this practice. Those customers who are not persistent might give up or accept lesser compensation which adds up to the company saving hundreds or thousands of dollars monthly. It is sucky for the customer who wants to be treated right, but money is the big factor for them.
Once you know their tricks it’s easier to be persistent and demand the problem be fixed in an acceptable manner. It might take a few weeks so be prepared for that.
4 out my 6 orders shipped out last night/this morning. Interestingly, on those 4, I purchased the ‘priority mail’ option, whereas the 2 still backordered lights I left on the default shipping which is still something like ‘Air Parcel Register’.
So, I guess they’ve hurried to ship those who upgraded their shipping for 50 cents, and will eventually get to those orders left with the default shipping option.
My gray 5000k shipped out today, I hope it gets here fast!
Allow them to fufill majority of the aluminium models first. Aluminium with copper head will be next to be shipped out, follow by Brass+Copper.
My Gun Metal 5000 shipped out today USA Priority Mail. No tracking number as yet. Itll get here when it gets here. Seems BG leaves a lot to be desired with their inventory and shipping status. My order showed as backordered yesterday. Estimated delivery here to Massachusetts is 11/1/19. It’ll be a surprise when it shows up. Until then my Shockli 5500 will be waiting patiently…
Mine has now shipped and the tracking number actually works for a change. :happydance:
There is no test of the Shockli 5500 2019 model, onlt 2017 model or 2018 green model.
Shockli 5250 greens suffer with 20A
I will use the Samsung 40T that handles without problems 25A.
I will have a flashlight with a little less capacity but lighter and more powerful.
It doesn’t matter if the battery can run sustained 20A. It will never do that because the flashlight will heat up and have to step down after a few minutes.
BTW, HKJ did test the Shockli 5500 and it can sustain 20A until full discharge.
This black model that they sell on bangood and other sites?
Could you put graphs at 20A?
I haven’t found any graph of the 2019 model.
Of all the graphics that exist, that is, Shockli IMR26650 5500mAh (Black) 2017, Golisi 4300 protected, samsug 40T, etc. the battery that loses the least voltage in turbo mode is the Samsung 40T which means more lumens in turbo mode, obviously.
It also maintains a higher voltage throughout the entire discharge with 25 , 20 , or less amps.
Yes. That is the cell.
2019 model is same as 2017 model.
Here is 10, 20 and 30 amp. (I already had this picture uploaded)
The 30T is more powerful. I see you have a way to measure lumens and are trying to squeeze out the maximum lumens possible? A 30T would be the best, but most average folks don’t care about the very max lumens, they want high lumens and longer runtime. The 5500mah is a nice cell for this.
Has this MF01 mini got a switch led that can be changed with button clicks?
Interested
The aux LEDs can, but I’m not sure about the switch. It might be on the same circuit or it might be seperate. We might have to wait until someone actually receives one to know for sure.
Hey guys,
What’s a good holster for mf01s Mini?
Thanks
Cloud
Maybe the Convoy C8 holster, the S2+ holster might be too small for the head. There would be also the Astrolux EC01 holster in this size.
I don’t know the exact diameter of the mf01 mini, but the Olight R50 hoster fits all of my current 26650 lights. It’s a rigid design which makes holstering fast and one handed. You can add some foam or a spacer in the bottom for your short lights so it doesnt drop down too far. I think I paid $11 shipped for mine.
The mini is 26650 size. 21700 and 18650 will be too small.
