Time for my first giveaway. I’m going full disclosure on why I’m getting rid of these lights. They’re not bad lights (usually), they’re just not for me, for one reason or another.
On the left is a Shining Beam I-mini. Cute little 16340 light with an interesting interface. It has stopped working 3 times. I know I replaced the switch, but I don’t remember what else I did. Every time it worked for a few days, then stopped again. It works now, but no guarantees. I have never carried this light, and it is the only one that has most, if not all, of the original packaging and extras.
The garish blue and red one is obviously a DV-S9 (or maybe a clone). Works great, but not for what I wanted it for. It has some usage wear, but it’s in good shape.
Finally, there’s a Sofirn C8S. I ordered two of them at an amazing price (I think they were less than $5 each). One stopped working after very little use. I determined that it was not the switch, then contacted Thorfire CS. They promptly sent a replacement. Once I had the replacement, I took apart the head of the broken one, couldn’t find anything wrong, and it’s worked ever since. I’m giving away the replacement, because I really don’t need 3. This one is also not in mint condition, but it works great, and looks pretty good for an angry blue beam.
If I get lots of entries, I’ll randomly choose a winner for each light. But if you tell me a great story/tall tale/lie about why or how badly you want or need any of these lights, I might not-so-randomly choose you. I plan to choose the winner(s) the first week of June. If you’re outside the US, and willing to pay UPS shipping, feel free to enter. Otherwise, US only, please.
And the winners are (drum roll please):
sbslider: Thorfire C8s
Hammerman: ShiningBeam i-mini
Hondarider: DV-S9
Agro: Bonus no-name tube light
