Red S2+ flashlight ,for girls,for your lover

^

Yeah, me too.

I think that ‘someone’ saw a way recently to make more money on this, and so cheapened it.

Who was that? - That is my question.

I am Very pleased with mine, as it seems you are with yours.

Something has changed - Who did this?

EDIT: - I have only ONE - it appears to be the original. - Just wanted to make that clear - Thanks.

Thanks,
-Chuck

:bigsmile:

Thanks for the info, seems like there’s multiple editions that Gearbest sells. It would be great if Simon could chime in and clarify, as well as a Gearbest rep.

+1

But will they be forthcoming?

Thanks,
-Chuck

Mine came as advertised.

Thanks GearBest!

+1 Originally bought mine for the parts. But it does 2.74 Amp at the tail, so I think I’ll keep it virgo intacta (more or less) 0:)

There seems to be a number of dealers under the Aliexpress umbrella selling Convoy. I wonder if anyone has any experience buying from these dealers.
eg
http://www.aliexpress.com/store/1750069 Burnfire Outdoor seems to be almost identical to http://www.aliexpress.com/store/330416 Shenzhen Convoy Electronics Co., Ltd.
but selling only a few Convoys & nothing else

This one actually is Convoy:

Shenzhen Convoy Electronics Co., Ltd.

Thanks,

Ive been eyeing the red S2+ for its inner parts...but now I think its not worth the gamble. as it clearly looks like a gamble now.

I would pay DOUBLE the price for a blue and or orange anodised convoy host.

Agreed, ChibiM.

I have the original and it is good, but after seeing these recent developments would be scared to order another.

It ‘seems’ that “they” have ran out of 4C… ‘So, why not just send them whatever we have, like 1A’? - HUGE difference to us, and just another sale to “them”. - 4C is not ‘better’ or ‘worse’ than 1A, as it all depends on what You want…. Thing is, they need to send us what is advertised! - Not some Cheap A$$ed Clone.

I’m very happy with mine, but I’m really pissed with what they sent some of you guys.

I still would like to see what “Simon Says”.

Thank you,
-Chuck

Simon hasn’t logged into BLF for 15 weeks, nearly 4 months. If anyone wants an answer from Simon we’d need to contact him via aliexpress.

I have never talked with him, so I am hoping that someone that he ‘knows’ to be credible will contact him.

Anybody?

Thanks,
-Chuck

I’m starting to think that Convoy is going to be the next UltraFire. Everybody and their brother will be making their own copy of them with varying quality and hollow pills. :_(

Next thing you know, there will be 6000mah Convoy 18650 batteries.

Photoshop?

Pbtbtbt. Why bother selling each color individually when we can make everyone happy all at once?

This is how I want mine:

That’s awesome. I’d certainly go for it.

That’s a nice color layout

Yes,

Buy what will we find inside???

Mine appears to be genuine with brass parts (ordered on 06 May) and I’m very happy with it.
I see GB has promotion again but I’ll wait until other colors are available and quality is confirmed (if that’s possible).
One of my small “XPE” zoomie from the same order arrived and its definitely not XPE. For that small and cheap light I don’t worry too much about quality but not for Convoy. I always expect good quality from Convoy.

ToyKeeper—those are awesome!
Can you do scallops/flames like on old school Hot Rods & some of Old-Lumens creations?
