I have a 4 times experience with the Priority mail shipping option of BG,and it is very good.Also,I pay for insurance whenever it is offered.So far,there is not any item lost,although I see that a parcel with 4pcs of 30Qs is delayed and unknown from 08/30,ordered at 08/23 by Priority mail.
Almost forgot to react to this.
Alignment is hard, a reason we go for a single long tube for the GT.
That ding, auch, looks like a worker dropped it before packaging on a sharp metal table edge or something.
No other dings and scratches? Glass clean?
For the record … received my Q8 day before yesterday. Switch beacon seemed to work correctly for a few cycles and is now deceased. I hope a fix can be provided with return and repair. Thanks and good luck with the remedy.
Since you seem to know the problem and the fix, can we BLF members enjoy the details of what is wrong with your Q8 :weary: ? By stating that your copy is DOA and then staying extremely vague, spreading panic is exactly what you seem to intend.
Thanks
And haha I see the question for pictures may sound like customer support asking for pictures when a product is not arrived
If you have the tools some pics of the switch assembly could be of great help
I believe my light is “A” typical. The wizards in production should be able to dissect and resolve the issue with a sample already in hand. I for one am not prepared to open up my semi functional beauty. I will leave that surgery to the pros.
mp isn't the issue; tiny phone cameras don't have the light collection to take good pics of low light. They get better at faking it with long exposures and software motion compensation, but nothing beats actual lens area. You can't take good photos without enough photons. Still, they are nice shots.
I actually bought the light through Aliexpress from Elfeland Outdoor Lighting Store. (Along with me about eleven other people placed an order through this site.)
I just read about the malfuncioning switch-led and the temporary halting of production.
Should I extend the Processing Time on my order on Aliexpress? Mine is at three days right now. If it reaches 0 my order wil automatically be cancelled and refunded.
As the customer I can extend the processing time for as long as I want, so the manufacturer has more time to ship to me.
With how many days should I extend the processing time, I’m not interested in a refund as I’m worried that the price will go up later.
I already bought 4pcs INR18650-30Q from Elfeland and the Liitokala Lii500 charger.
Thanks in advance for answering.
PS: I’m exited for this light, it’s actually my first real high lumen flashlight. Before I have only ever bought two Maglites (gave them to my parents) and a Trunite Ti3.
At work you have enough time to write 5 sentences with nothing in it except putting away my IMO justly concern as BS thank you very much, while you could spend 1 sentence on the problems that you had with your flashlight thereby putting my mind at ease concerning your intentions.
