Just can't resist ordering the BLF Q8.

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).

You’re gonna make me order another one, aren’t ya?

OK……I broke. I’m a weak man. Yeah, it cost me …I dunno…16…18 dollars but I took the Amazon route. It’ll be here March 1st as opposed to ….whenever.
I’m pumped! Oh, you folks that are familiar with this light—what is the true story on the batteries? Will flattop 30Q’s work? Flattop LG H2’s? Thanks in advance…

That was on 4th December though, so I’m not sure if the deal is still active, or if it’s been replaced by their new offer for their own brand AA/14500 light.

ThorFire’s post is here.

Samsung 30q flat top works on my q8. I cant say it will work on your light…

You can’t count tax since Amazon has a presence now in practically every state. So you’re only looking at the difference of $7.28

There are lights out there that sell for 2 1/2 times the full price of a Q8 that aren’t as good. I’d say go for it.

I understand that. I ain’t complaining.
