No, it’s the 3.7/4.2 one. I bought two of them before when they were $18. On one of them the emitter fell right off the star while I was using the light. I have to think that was a fluke. Hope so anyhow.
I put a NANJG 105c 2.8 amp driver in one and it really woke it up. Those U2s they use have a great tint, but are desperately under driven at 2.0 amps with the 3-18 volt driver.
Oh crappy.. now I'm bummed for visiting this thread and finding out the U2 1-mode drop-in is that under driven. I still haven't received it yet but it's been over two weeks so should be here any day. I'm not too excited anymore :(
I was searching for a 3.7-4.2V U2 but all I could find is the 3.0-18V. So am I actually getting less with this U2 drop-in than I'd get with 4.2V T6?
So far placed four orders with KD. Two arrived no problems, the other two didn't. After a month or so I checked Paypal history and realized that I hadn't actually been charged for these transactions, even though I checked out as usual, via Paypal, and without apparent hitches. Nothing to tell me that my order hadn't been processed. Also got major problems with nearly all links to their website, even recently posted ones,. Still, this is saving me money
How do you all contact KD customer service? I've tried using their website too do so and the submit button is nowhere to be found??? Anyone have an actual email address?
i've ordered a little thing (UF head band strap) 9 days ago and it's still listed as "back ordered" in my account status. should i cancel the order? Lamentably KD has no chat option. since i dont need/want the strap urgently, i am tending now to cancel everything before i get involved in some stupid KD waiting game which i experienced before with DX: i had waited for 2.0 months(!!) for back ordered silicone oil and it was never shipped because DX never got the stuff from the supplier. thanks for some opinions or sharing of recent KD experience so that i get a picture of what i should expect from them. i am a first time KD customer, and i havent seen the UF head band strap elsewhere.
The head band headband is a good quality item. Very good actually, and i like it a lot. Problem is, without a proper headlamp the headband (or the holder) is of no use because there is good way to tilt (or swivel) the beam, e.g. onto the ground 2 meters in front of you. Even if you have a cap (Chadwick's idea), and yes, Xeno, Klarus P1A, Quark, etc. (21.5-23.0mm bezel fit fine!) blablah,
... the beam would point straight ahead of you or even upwards lol. This headband REALLY requires a L-shaped form factor flashlight or the Quark prism+diffuser lens:
What's the deal with the blurry photo's in the search results? Also, they're blurry on the product page until mouse-over. It seems to be happening with more and more items. It's rather annoying.
The last three orders from KD all came sooner than expected. They all shipped within 1 day of placing them. I always e-mail them and ask about the items I want first and after their reply I place the order. So far it's working as it should and KD is now my go to instead of DX, for the stuff I can't get here in the US. (KD and CNQG that is).
The second one was registered and showed up yesterday. The rest is still missing. At the same time, I placed an order with regular delivery at CNQ, arrived today. So, not impressed.
Ordered some empty p60 drop ins and a few different drivers, Paid for registered shipping.
Order was shipped out on july 24, received it yesterday Aug 1st. Now thats fast on my books. Don’t mind paying 3 bucks extra if it’s going to show up that fast
Everything i ordered i am happy with
