Nothing I hate worse than a Fake!

Thanks,

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.

Marc.

Now shows out of stock. I hope they are still have stock on hand to resend and changed it to out of stock so they can do a inventory and weed out the fakes.
Convoy S2+ 1000LM Cree XM L2 T6 - 4C 3 / 5 Modes LED Flashlight Torch ( 1 x 18650 Battery ) - NATURAL WHITE LIGHT

Yeah! - Out of Stock!

Looks like Gearbest is doing the right thing!

Thanks Gearbest!

Oh boy, didn't follow this thread recently. Now I feel really bad recommending the $12.99 GB special to a few friends FrownFrown.

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.

As long as GearBest makes it right, I will continue to buy things from them.

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.

Which one of these Convoy Tube lights has the smooth and deeper reflector with a brass pill? Is it the S2? Old version or is their a new version?

Old S2 and S7 both have the deeper reflector. Not sure which others do.

Thank you TK!

S2, S5, S6, and S7 all use the same (longer) OP reflector (Smooth sold separately)

S2+ and S3 use the smaller reflector

I think S4 uses a different size

S3 has an integrated shelf (no pill)

Who sells the smooth reflectors?

I believe I got mine at fasttech.

Smo reflector + dedomed XP-L throws pretty good, and it’s not a ringy beam either. I have it in an S6 and it’s in my top 3 favorite lights

+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?

The S4 I got way back is a deep reflector, might be deeper than the all the others in fact.

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.

B42,

You’ve actually answered part of my question that I had in the A6 thread! - Thanks!

Now, do you know how that compares to the EE A6?

Could you please post you answer in Bugsy’s A6 thread, please.

Thank you,
-Chuck
