Thatās crazyā¦.it still doesnāt show up on a Google search for meā¦even putting in amazon with the search. The only way i get there is with your link or searching for the light specifically on amazon store. Google got some catching up to do i guess.
$100 I was hoping for $30-$40, hence, a reasonably priced alternative to the Nitecore EA41, especially after I got their PF04 penlight that was quite impressive for $20 (compared to my $50 retail 4sevens Preon P2ā¦ā¦mind you I did NOT pay $50 for that light).
Oh wellā¦thanks anyway! And i totally understand the eneloops directionā¦got many myself (and Amazon re-brands), but thereās just some topics you learn arenāt worth trying to change a father-in-lawās mind aboutā¦ā¦ya know?
Iāve just bought a Nitecore EA45S for $40 including shipping, so I canāt see myself buying this light. Shame as it looks nice. I wonder what the regulation is like?
Say what?!? $100 !?
Ah yeah there it is (the monkey is coming out of the sleeve for us Dutchies )
āFrom 99 for only 49ā
Sigh one just got to love Simon who puts a fair price on his lights and that is it.
But OT with another Dutch saying āthe soup is not eaten as hot as it is being servedā
If I were purchasing this light, Iām of the opinion that $49 is a tad on the premium side. I guess Thorfire is aligning itās prices with manufacturers like Nitecore and Olight.
I think it is quite reasonable if, and only if, the regulation is good. The current reviews are pretty sketchy being at the āWow, this is goodā level.
Mine is now using 4 alkaline AA cells. They were dirt cheap, ā¬0.65 for 8
Awaiting the Eneloops.
I use it a few times a day for no longer then 5 minutes and first day a bit more, even during the day to see if and how it worked.
So it is used for about 2 hours now and I do not see it get dimmer, the trees at 50 meters are nicely lit and the owl screaming his/hers lungs out at night still chooses another tree much further away when I shine on him/her
Will do actual run test with rechargeable cells as soon as they are in
BUT 1 with the Q8 we work with Thorfire and 2 they send it for free, giving two strikes in terms of objectivity so only if I also would have commercial interests I would be a worse person to āreviewā it then I am now.
Beat me to it lightx. Also, the Amazon price is down to $45. Itās still not yet listed on the thorfire direct site. I might need to pick up some eneloops.
It was a bit premium at 42.99, but decided to buy. It seemed like the best option in its segment, AA powered high output lights(all 4*AA). No complaints except a very misaligned emitter, worse than I ever saw in a $5 light. Overall this makes me rate it one out of five at that price despite otherwise functioning flawlessly. Embarrassing as any AA light I buy is not for my own personal use.
Here is my TK4. Definitely more compact than Thrunite TN4.
Tint is 5500K which is quite acceptable, considering price I paid.
Modes are changin little bit slowly. Glass looks strange, like it is plastic.
Anyway, perfect flashlight for my car glove compartment.
