DX has new X-ML's and a nice R5 single mode

Browsing DX and found a nice single mode R5

They have also released some XM-L lights in old hosts and a few new ones by Brinyte also.

I saw that G-10, and I kinda like it. I think that one will be in the mail after the Chinese new year.

How about this one:

Today shows the 6 mode version

The 6-mode G10 could be pretty good, but no memory and I wouldn't like cycling through so many modes.

The Brinyte seems like a a great light, but the LED looks like it is down below the hole in the reflector. That could block a lot of light.

G10 multi-mode already sold out LMFAO

im gonna order a 1 mode when i get payed. i love the design (and i normally dont like tactical style heads) but the heat sinking looks sick... mini xm-l host? maybe lol

I really like the design of the G10. I was glad to see the 6 mode version. I can't believe it is really sold out...I bet they just haven't received it yet???? If it come's into stock i'm going to order one after their lunar new year even though I bet it is basically the same thing as the K10 I already have.

I'm still waiting on my parts to fix my K10 so I can finally see her shine lol!

I like it too and the reflector seem the same UF P10 has, perfect host for a mini XM-L , at least 500 lumen at a 14500 2C with great beam..

Hope they sell it again soon..

That's actually true of almost all the "new arrival" items. Their inventory of popular items is very limited and they hardly ever have more than a few samples of the new stuff until the orders start rolling in.

When an item is "sold out" within 24 hours of showing up as a new arrival, what happened is usually that a moderator or a forum regular emailed DX directly (instead of using the "report error" thingie, which ensures that your message ends up as a ticket at the back of the queue) and for some reason, they decided to just pull the item for now, instead of ignoring the problem/fixing the description/uploading the correct picture. I am not sure if they ask their suppliers for clarification and/or renegotiate prices or something when it happens but if past experience is any indication, those "sold out" items have a tendency to actually make another appearance after a few weeks, whereas "temporarily sold out" is generally code for "ain't coming back in a million years".

I'm actually responsible for having them pull a flashlight once when I mentioned something in passing about the description being wrong, which as we all know, is the rule and not the exception so I figured they'd just fix the description. But, nope, instead they pulled the plug, only to re-list it a couple of weeks later.

well when i get the money im ordering one. looks like a good one to me. gotta order another r5-a3 too. and a friend wants an MCU-c7.... tho last time i ordered those i wasnt happy with the declining quality

Yes! is in stock again and with the same cost http://www.dealextreme.com/p/uniquefire-g10-cree-xp-e-r5-6-mode-350-lumen-white-led-flashlight-with-strap-1-14500-1-aa-55243?r=43033281

Interesting and cheap

The G10's one mode order was made, hoping it's not another unwilling loan also know as DX's new arrival trick..

I ordered the 6-mode version, as I allready got a single mode C3 with a R5.
