Australia Based Deals / Info / Links / Discussion

Anybody find any good deals with Amazon AU’s soft launch?

I see Thorfire are on Amazon Aus.

Those TF prices on Au Amazon are excellent.
I know I mentioned it in the Amazon/TF thread, but I will mention it again because I am happy to see Aussies finally getting a fair go!

For those that like things that go bang, or maybe have a huge flashlight collection, SCA has these on special for $99.xx, normally $189.xx.

They are a tad short and a bit on the heavy side at slightly over 9KG!, but seem robust. A 40” OAL with optic and 37” without optic just fits (and I mean just) and should be fine for flat carrying in a vehicle but for rough handling you wouldn’t want much longer than 36” OAL. The hinge pins are steel, it has two padlock points, and wheels to help with all that weight. The pick and pluck seems to be of average quality and I have an idea for a foam upgrade. Lol, this is starting to sound more like a review. I’ll just leave the link and go before someone asks for photos of my foam removal skills.

I’ll have to check it out tomorrow.

Should be able to get an extra 5% discount by ordering through ebay with code P5ozzie, but that means a lot of stuffing around if you want to look at the case first.

They could be used to ship motorcycle forks…

^ lol, first thing to enter my head was an image of forks with an optic tied to one side. :confounded:

Hey lads i seen this deal on Ebay so i bought one. Two sellers have the same item for around the same price, To me it seems suss but its cheap enough to buy and try. It does say save $30 so i will find out the hard way lol its a similiar design to the rest of the re-flow station on Ebay. It also says shipping from Sydney my shipping was like $6 to Sydney.

That looks like a great deal.

There were some of these a while ago with a dodgy earth - might be a good idea to flip the lid & check it out prior to using it. :beer:

I just seen more under my listing on the sales page but when i search for them i can not find the links. I think maybe because its not a main brand like Yihua?

This one is $17.95 shipped. Now i feel ripped of lol. The one i bought does have reviews on it and they said the earth for the nozzle was just floating maybe i can screw it in place.

Any Aussie’s sub’d in this thread that’ll be modding the emitter in their GT to something a bit cooler?

Would love to get in on that action as the stock 4000k emitter will grind on me

I’m not sure if I’ll mod or not until I use the light. What were you planning on putting in?

Probably a NW XHP70.2 or a CW version of the stock emitter

I love what ThorFire are doing with their Australian Amazon store - the prices are good, the range has expanded since launch, and now they’re sharing discount codes.

All we need now is a discount code to bring the Q8 down to the Banggood discount price. :wink:

Yeah the Rep that has been in contact with me did mentiom that they are trying to get the Q8 in the aussie amazon store too. Fingers crossed it happens an we get a good coupon :wink:

I could have sworn I saw the Q8 in the Aussie store recently - I remember being a bit surprised by the price - but it’s not there now. Hopefully that means they’re almost ready to list it and they’re just working out how to give us an awesome price.

Either that or I just dreamed it.

The Q8 was in the Aus store for something like 24hrs and then vanished.

Thanks for the heads up DoNkEyConN.
