Yeah the light had issues on the gt mini also, its a really mushy button i wish they use something more sturdy… but if u bought it on amazon why must u return it to china? makes no sense… just send it back to amazon say its faulty should be no problem.
Return to china i would never agree, it costs more then the light u paid for and it takes forever to send stuff back there… dont do it!
Some items on Amazon are not sold by Amazon. This was one of those. I have no choice really as I don’t want the light and I paid $50 for this sucker. I’m still mad at myself for doing that. I’d actually feel better spending another $20 to ship it back for a refund than keeping it for $50. I feel like I got swindled by a used car salesman. Jeez I feel like such a jeep.
Thanks for the video. I prefer the warmer tint myself, but as you mentioned, more intense/focused hotspot is also a plus in my eyes. I went with the Micro. Should be here today from Amazon. Not bad considering I placed the order yesterday ;). I ordered from Lumintop Direct. Only $32 with the 20% off Amazon coupon right now.
So I had ordered the Micro a few weeks back when it was $26 on Amazon. Two weeks later, I cancelled the order, as it hadn’t shipped yet. What kind of store cannot manage to ship a product over a two week period? Oh well, I’m sure I’ll end up buying something from a company that can get the product out the door.
It showed in stock when I ordered it. It even showed in stock after I cancelled the order. I would have tried to order again, but the price wasn’t $26 anymore. Strangely, I had also ordered a pair of sunglasses for color blindness and the same thing happened. Maybe the Amazon gods are angry at me for some reason…
For what you get for the money, it is hard to beat the C8+ sst40 for under $20, that’s for sure. However, I do feel that a more apples to apples comparison would be the C8+ vs the GT Mini and not the Micro. The Micro being smaller and utilizing a 14500 cell sort of puts it into a different category IMO.
Yes it is! Been playing with the Micro all weekend. With the right cell, about as much lumens as it’s bigger brother, Mini. Many neighbors were very impressed by the mini. As am I, of course.
