Amazon Deal Alerts & Discussion Thread

NiMh or alkaline…
I have AAA Eneloop and black Amazon rechargeables and use those mostly,
Also have some cheap AC Delco AAA Alkalines that sometimes find their way into my pocket light.

The AAA alkaline will last for a really long time on short bursts, what I use most at work. If I am outside working on something and using for long periods I always will use a rechargeable.
Generally an NiMh on high will get the light warm and an alkaline will not. Obviously the NiMh is brighter…
Overall run time of usable light the alkaline will run longer. Even a half dead alkaline will come back a bit for more short bursts with some time back in the pocket.

I just got mine. There is no way the low mode is only 0.1lm. If I had to guess, it’s somewhere between 1 and 2 lm. I wish it was lower. But other than that, it’s a nice little light. The mid mode is great as it gives a nice balance between output and battery life. Without a battery, it only weighs 0.3 oz. This is my smallest flashlight to date. I had some Eneloops sitting around collecting dust, so that’s what I’m currently using in it.

Ditto to all the above. Just gave one to the gf to use as a brim-clip-on headlamp, and got more for myself as spares. Definitely handy!

I noticed my glaree only has 3 modes, not the advertised 4. Moon is missing. Nice little light, wish I could order another but I couldn’t get the code to work again.

Don’t they count strobe as a “mode”? Ie, l/m/h/s?

No, the manual clearly shows moon, l, m, h with strobe separate. I sent an email to glaree to check on it. Nice little light, but I love moon mode, so….

Mine doesn’t. It shows Moon, Low, High, and Strobe. So that’s 4 modes total including strobe.

Ah crap - you’re all right. I completely misread the manual! It’s CLEARLY 3 modes + strobe. :person_facepalming:

Ditto.

Well Here is another $5 light And it’s BRASS. I have not received it yet so I can not comment on it.

This is a Lightning Deal @ $10 for a short time. Code takes another 50% 0ff that… Hurry, Hurry, Hurry

Wow! What a deal. Thanks for the alert vwpieces.

That same ebay seller has 2 pieces for $4.99.

Zanflare F2S … Limited time. Really nice 2 x AA. I bought one of each tint.

Thanks for the info. Bought 2.

I wish there was a way to bypass strobe when cycling through various output modes. Otherwise, seems like a nice light.

I agree … saving grace is the active memory. At least the light can be turned off and turned on in last level used without cycling through strobe mode. A very handy and affordable AA.

Actually, were it not for the damned strobe, I would’ve bought one or more. Looks like a really nice light otherwise.
