Are You talking about this one ?
I have bought one of this, we’ll see if it’s worth this money
It is a nice mod host, integrated shelf. I have piggy backed a couple of them with fet drivers. There is a small dip under the mcpcb about 12mm in dia. which needs to be filled with a thin copper plate for better conductivity, put in a copper led plate and its really awesome. Like a cheaper, heavier c8 with side switch and usb charging. The stock driver may be pulls like 1.8 amps. Enjoy your flashlight.

(edit) Sorry, previous link was 50 bucks shipping or something like that, this ^ is the right one
Not too exiting today, except for some DITO deals earlier.
That Warsun looks like a good deal!
But i stopped scrolling at around 5½ bucks…
Warning, the shipping on the Liitokala Lii-500 NiMH Battery Charger is $53
Only option id DHL to USA for the $53
Been watching that one. Price went up a week ago and now back to $15 but the shipping is screwed up.
Missed the $3 Dito deals. Were INFLATED to $15 now which is higher than its regular. Good I got one for $6.50 a few weeks back.
Guess everyone is also getting the same results as I have seen. Disappointing Sale event.
LOL
Come on, guys! There are some nice deals! Like this one:

14500 only according to this review Обзор NONAME ZOOM 3 MODE налобного фонарика с buyincoins - YouTube
The CT9T would be a great light for 8.50, I’d be very suprised if they didn’t gimp it somehow at that price. The one I have cost ~$14 iirc.
Anyone found any decent XPL lights?
Free Shipping to United States via China Post Registered Air Mail US $4.86
Not bad if you think of it as a Host.
Sorry, wrong one linked…
It’s the right one now.
Bought it this afternoon.
I had one of those, yes, it’s crap…
I modded a new flood head on it and then the driver died…
it did run on Eneloops though.
Should note, that liitokala for $15 is the one without the power cord
Have to share this one though:
Such a fun design (i.m.o.)
Have one, ordered strawhat warm white 5mm LEDs for, it, moddable to take 18650, make a 2 x 7135 one mode light.
Recess the switch and it can tailstand too.
Yep…
It’s not a very special deal…
…and then i just saw this thing here:
tempting…
(not sure why though… )
6x AA, wide enough to take 2x D cell.
Maybe shove a pair of Liitokala’s in there and fill the head with TIRs and proper emitters.
Yeah, i like weird cheapo lights…
I grabbed one of these, figure a Warsun C8 would be decent for $5 and why not…
I didn’t find any light or knife related deals that were particularly appealing, but I did get sucked into another potential addiction after following the Google Trail down the rabbit hole - ear buds and headsets. It started off with me innocently looking at the deals for 11/11, and lead me here…
It did not end well for me.
Lol, I have bought 1 pair of earbuds on 11/11 for the past 3 years. I was already a bit of a headphone junky in college, but flashlights were the gateway to the wonderful world of quasi-premium Chinese products. You may run into a few recent comments from me on head-fi
