Nope - this month's group buy/deal has not started yet - We have yet to choose what items we want.
In fairness to DD, I think(I may be wrong) they're the only store that allows us to choose items for a group buy - hats off to them, for this, and the deal last month of one budget and one "non-budget" light is a nice format.
I'd get behind a deal on an ITP light or the suggestion of the Trustfire X9 (provided you can beat the $33 e-bay price). Even the discounted price on Sunwayman is more than what I want to spend right now.
As I recall reading earlier in this thread Summer stated that the price on the V10A was currently the lowest she’d be able to do on that Sunwayman and that’s the best price DD could do as it’s currently on a promotional deal that ends shortly and that if we wanted it they might extend that price for one more week.
As to August's deal, there may have been a budget light and a non-budget light but both were selling at budget prices so I fail to see your point on that one. Neither of these Sunwayman lights we have to choose from are budget lights and certainly not budget prices as far we we know.
The trouble with the Trustfire X9 is the erratic or poor draw and that it is difficult to mod the driver and especially the emitter.
I suggested (at Post 52 of this thread) another High Quality 57mm headed light that can be used as either 1*18650 or 2*18650. Take a look at the links I posted there inc. 2100's comments on the quality of its body.
I like the Sunwayman offerings posted here but for me they don't offer anything special I couldn't already be satisfied getting with a much more affordable alternative. I like the idea of choosing something normally out of our price range, but these just look like more expensive versions of something that can be achieved at half the price.
My vote goes for either something unique at a higher price or something quality but affordable for everyone.
