Every one, I’m really sorry if we bring you any trouble about the convoy s2+,
if any one think yours are defective, please send the order number, pictures of the packaging and flashlight to our csgearbest in BLF to get a full refund to your GB wallet or resend.
please kindly allow us some time to checking our stocking items, making the future sent products in right condition.
I don’t want to go too off topic here but I ordered an Eagleeye F30 from banggood and instead of the nice black Eagleeye box it came in a crappy white box just like one some of you guys have received. Makes you think. Never thought much of it at the time.
Oh boy, didn't follow this thread recently. Now I feel really bad recommending the $12.99 GB special to a few friends .
Karen (GB) - please keep in mind "defective" usually means not functioning, while a fake light may function but it's bought under deceptive pretense, delivering something much cheaper in quality and not as advertised, in both pictures and listed specifications.
Please keep it out-of-stock until this gets straightened out, thanks!
I always recommended Simon's store, and will do so even more now.
Oh Dear. I ordered a Convoy S2+ Red from http://www.aliexpress.com/store/1750069 on 01 June.
It was a couple of dollars cheaper than from Simon’s store & offered the same modifications. The website looked exactly the same as his store & the name on the dealer is Mr. Arden MAO.
This item is now no longer available !
I haven’t received it yet so time will tell what I get - a genuine or fake.
+1. Thanks for the very detailed screenshots. It cannot be clearer than this! I can thus confirm I got the REAL ONE! YAHOO. Date is 18/05/15.
Paid like $11 for mine. Cannot be happier. My new EDU (every day use) bedside lamp! (50 lumens)
Yep I agree it’s amazing thrower for such a little light. I have the HI-XPL 5000k in the Cypreus 18650, LD-2 driver with the longer smooth reflector, it’s about as perfect as you can get! Perfect spot, plenty of spill and beautiful tint! Not so good in the S2+ should of just left it alone! But I plan on getting a few of the S2’s and doing them for friends since I believe the Cypreus was based on it?
I <3 my S7. Since it’s stainless steel, it’s my “beater” light. It takes a lot of abuse and stays pretty. I built it with a 5x7135 nanjg driver, Nichia 219B on a Noctigon, SF L2 clip, DC-Fix on the lens to make the beam floodier/smoother, and custom firmware.
The max output is only about 500 lumens, but that’s fine for my uses and I wouldn’t want to go higher with a steel host anyway. It’s already pushing its limits for heat dissipation, and it’s a little beyond the maximum recommended current for its emitter.
I definitely can see the difference between S2 and S2+ light patterns, my S2 is a much more throwy combo of flood and throw in comparison and I enjoy that beam pattern more.
