Hi Freeme,

My order #: 74721568
Order placed date: 2019-10-14

(Astrolux EC01 5000k tint but received the same as the “6000-6500k” tint).

You can get it on Ali Vapcell Store Vapcell 21700 4500mAh 20A Red HKJ Review
On 11.11 you get two for $13.59, that’s $6.80 pr cell. BT version will be $7 pr cell.

Two alternatives
Vapcell 21700 4200mah 30A Green (Molicel P42A rewrap) HKJ Review Buy

Vapcell 21700 4000mah 30A Gold (Samsung 40T rewrap) HKJ Review Buy

:+1:

I was in a bit of a rush to get it as I didn’t know how long it would take for the EC01 to arrive, so I decided to buy from a UK seller - but will definitely check the Ali store next time. The price for one cell isn’t too different from what I paid, but £12.04 for two of the 4500mAh cells is definitely a bargain!

Can I get a code for the 5000K please, I waited for the nw Version ...

edit: thx, 5000k ordered now !

@Freeme, I have the same issue, I ordered and got delivered a 5000K Version, but its definitely same tint as the 5700K or 6000-6500K versions that my fried got delivered.
I have mentioned already in Post No. #567 as I received my.

Would be nice if you could check this FreeMe, thanks in advance.

I just received four EC01 5000K supposedly, but haven’t even unpacked them waiting for the cells… Not home right now but will surely check on monday. However i’m not worried since the 6500K version was more NW then CW and i was fine with it.

Hi to all affected of the 5000K problem. I received email from androidservice@banggod signed by Michelle in wich they apologise and offered me 10$ for the mistake, BUT i have already been contacted them about the problem before Freeme collected our order numbers. So what i am asking is does someone else have been contacted from banggood and what resolution of the problem are we expecting, are those 10$ what i can consider a good resolution or not and do i have to wait to be contacted again if this mail is due to my request to them will i have to wait another or this is it.
And maybe the most important can we know if in next order if we choose the 5000K EC01 that they are no longer spending mislabelled 6500k because i want to have that 5000K EC01 in the end. Con someone confirm that the have cleared this issue.

I’ve not heard anything frmo Banggood, so I’ll be contacting them myself today.

Freeme do you have any info about the coloured ones. Are they coming any time soon?

I’m still waiting for Banggood to contact me.

@freemee: i confirm all four EC01 i received are labeled 5000K but are the same as 6500K.

$10 refund is a decent offer to me. I would take the offer if i were you. If you don't like the light, simply put it on sale in you online local marketplace, you could probably earn a few more extra bucks with it.

Banggood's decision is to send your light back to BG for full refund. Registered mail shipping fee will be absorbed by Banggood.

Banggood will also offer a 30% discount coupon for their flashlight category for the affected buyers.

Thanks for the answer Freeme. Yes 10$ is decent offer. The flashlight is perfect in any aspect that is why i am going to bye another one, but can they confirm that mow they will send real 5000K.

Very decent offer(s) from Banggood!!! IMO

Now I need to ask this…
Is there really a 5000K version available ???

.

Will this magnetic ring fit in the tail https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32265641134.html
Or where can I get one that fits? What kind of glue is best to use?

Following up on my newly delivered 5000K EC01s, i had a closer look at the tint. All four received have about the same CCT compared to my first 6500K. They almost look a little colder but i think that might just be the tint and BBL situation in the same CCT range. The 5000K looks a bit greenish whereas the 6500K has some sort of rosy shade i like better actually. Can’t really say which is warmer or cooler really, although the “green ones” - 5000K, feel cooler to me.

What’s really happening behind this is a bit of a mystery. Did they ever have 6500K leds in the first place? Maybe they where mislabeled or CREE messed up somewhere. For what i can see the two are consistently, although slightly, different, so they seem to come from different bins or else.

I will gladly accept a $10 refund per light… and buy a couple others - 6500 or 5000K?. :innocent:

@freemee: what should i do? Wait for BG to email me? Get in touch with CS?

I’ve had a reply from Banggood, asking me for a video … :person_facepalming:

Seriously considering saving myself the hassle, and gifting the light to someone instead. It’s a shame, as I like everything else about the light except for the tint.

In the past I never had any problems with Banggod, despite having placed dozens of orders. But now I’ve received two wrong lights in the most recent four deliveries.

Hi i have send them video photos and a photo of the package it came with, then they propose 400 pints wich is 4$ i replied that this is not enough and then they say 10$ so it wasn’t easy, now they say that ill have to wait 48 to 72 hours to receive the money in my Paypal.
