Amazon Deal Alerts & Discussion Thread

It looks like most of the Thorfire lights on Amazon are available with some sort of discount or coupon deal right now.

It looks like the seller of that MF01-like light recently started selling an S41-like light too. Also, they were selling an S42-like light recently, but the listing now shows the light is unavailable right now because Amazon pulled the listing due to poor customer feedback. From the handfull of reviews, it looks like some people got lights that were DOA and/or didn’t match the listing.

On the other hand it’s $47, with Prime next day shipping, so you’ll know quickly… I was a long way from spending $50 on a light, but I’m tempted…

What do you search for to find them once they return?

This is the withdrawn listing for the S32-like light.

Got the 911-L1 today. As others have reported in freeme's Group Buy thread, it seems to be the real deal. The reason I'm posting about it here and not in freeme's thread is that it seems kind of rude to discuss a competing deal in a group buy thread. I have nothing against freeme or his group buy. He's a great member and offers great deals.

The light seems to be every bit as high quality as the MF01 I purchased from joker145. I haven't measured lumens yet because the light doesn't fit my integrating tube. It's got the 2 LED leads that the second version has. The bezel may be thread locked. I couldn't get it open with 2 strap wretches, but it's late and I'm tired.

As l have posted in another thread about the 911, l chatted with a friend in Mateminco (the makers of the Astrolux MF series) and he confirms that they made it at the request of a businessman who has an Amazon store. He purposely lost money on the the first few deals in exchange for maximum exposure of his store.

That’s why it’s as good as the Matemincos.

The 911 does’t seem to be on sale for $47 anymore.

Yep, showing $107 for me

Edit, now $109.95

Well that’s just my luck :confounded: .
I was about to jump all over this until I got to the amazon page. :person_facepalming:

Received the Amazon version of MF01, same exact light.

Not sure if this is good deal for a modable host/flashlight, but
Today they have Anker LC40

price is 15.99

The Bad:
Battery is not removable
Modes are H/M/L/blink/SOS/

Good:
From reviews on BLF, seems like it used to be a AAA light, now “built-in 3350mAh rechargeable battery”
-LED is XP-G2

  • IP65-rated, don’t see many lights with this rating.

What is the link? IP65 is good for a camera, but not what I want to see for a flashlight.

The old version was quite different indeed. I have one. It can run on 3xAAA or an 18650. It’s actually a pretty decent light for $10 that I paid for it, but $10 will also get you a Convoy s2+ which is even better.

Here is the link to the old LC40: Amazon.com

(Friday 3/16/18) The Zanflare F1 is on Lightning Deal right now for $18.99 for CW or NW version, with free shipping for prime members in US. I don’t know about other countries. It ends at 2:30 am EST.

Nice!

Too bad I just got 2 from GB for 20bux a pop, or I’d get a couple. :expressionless:

16 pack AA eneloops are Amazon deal of the day @ ~$25

Link Please

Sorry, unfortunately it looks like the deal has already expired. I posted right after I found out about the deal and bought one. They must have sold out quickly.

Still comes up for me. I just searched “Eneloop” and the deal is the second item in the results list.

Geez - if I only had a use for that many AAs. I just bought 4x Eneloop Pro cells.

Also - LOL at the $47 Astrolux MF01 clone - it’s now over $100! I just wonder what kind of moron is buying these at the higher cost to keep driving up the price.
