Sounded great but didn’t work that way for me. Still $72.80. Unless I’m missing something.

Just turn it off and it won’t be green anymore :wink:

But yea, the Q8 is my most used light by far. I’ve actually bought 5 Q8’s (2 for me, 3 for friends), and every light was flawless.

:smiling_imp: Do it. :smiling_imp: Do it. :smiling_imp: Do it. :smiling_imp:

I don’t mind the wait. Too late for me, done deal.
I just bought the Nitecore TM28 as well.

What was mentioned about a gateway? :innocent:

Haha, you’re way beyond the gate already…like me. :beer:

You aren’t going through checkout I would guess. I just tried it two minutes ago and it works fine. Add to Cart

Click checkout

Price automatically adjusts to 50.96, click Place order, wait two days, delivered…. Boom

Crap, I must have born under a bad sign. I can click all the way through until “place order” and the price remains the same. Bummer.

Try this code and see what happens Z7A6PG7N

I got one already from the group buy. $52 is still a good deal…

I just tried it…(already own two Q8’s)
I see a 20% promotion drop down…bringing the price to $58

Well, that got me down to $58.24+ tax. Total of $$62.67 here in WA. Whaddya think? Is that a good deal on this light?

You won’t miss the $12 when you have this light in your hand!

Decisions, decisions….I knew I was in trouble when I became a flashaholic…….

just have two less starbuck’s this week and call it even

There are only a handful of lights I've ever reviewed where I had written the review and before I posted "something came up" that caused me to realize I had to scrap my review and start over because I wasn't doing the light justice.

I had a 2 hour "dog search" with the BLF-Q8 in some pretty rough country and it was amazing.

So the BLF-Q8 "Real World Review" is delayed until I am able to whip up prose adequate to the performance of the light.

Oh and as a side note. I know a lot of folks say go unprotected and so forth for max performance, but I have 4 of these EBL 18650 in my light and I've been very happy with how they are playing together.

I do recommend that you commit the batteries to the light as a set though just to keep the use balance equaled out 'cause on high power the light sure does draw on the cells hard.

Preach it Brother MWS!
Can I get an AMEN and some LUMENS!

Uh oh. Power just went out. I said to my wife, don’t worry, I have a flashlight :smiley:
TM26GT ceiling bounce. We good.

My Q8 was a bit of a novelty for me until I swapped the XP-Ls for 219Cs. I’m always amazed at how everything pops out in the woods at night instead of just being a dull drab brown. Plus it’s still pretty damn bright (~3800 turn-on lumens).
