Yeah, illum is my go-to for orders from the US. Never had a problem with shipping to Canada, including batteries, and itās pretty quick too. About 1 week. I used to buy Zebralights from them, but for whatever reason they stopped carrying newer models, so I order those directly from Zebralight in China now.
Iāve also had some good experiences with illumn in the past. Itās my main place for batteries.
CalvinIS, Iām looking at doing some switches for some surefire 6Pās and I will need some of the mcclicky retaining rings. I donāt need the whole switch assembly though. EDCplus has an option to just purchase the retraining rings. Is there anyway you all could offer this too? Iād rather bundle it with a battery order and get it from you guys. Thanks!
Zebralight had the worst margins of any manufacturer we ever carried. We placed an order once and waited for over 3 months to get the shipment, all while they sold the model directly on their webstore.
If you live in the California Bay Area itās well worth visiting Illumnās showroom. They have a LOT of demo lights on the counter you can play with. Most with batteries installed.
(Not sure exactly how many demo lights, but my guess is 60 to 100 or so of the latest models).
Hey, Calvin, would you be interested in hosting a BLF get-together?
Youāre just far enough down the dreaded Highway 17 to make me want pizza and conviviality along with a lot of demo lights.
A small door fee would be entirely appropriate to cover cleanup ā¦ā¦
Just, ya know, wishing out loud for what Iād like, a tactic thatās surprisingly often been successful for me in the Internet era.
