Ended

I’m interested in a couple when this GB becomes available again.

FB

Mine arrived today.

These lanterns are neat!! I am definitely a happy camper…. . :smiley: . :beer:

Thanks freeme……

Got my 4 yesterday. Very nice

Received mine as well today. I didn’t think it was that because the package was coming from a P.O. box in Mississauga, Ontario. It seems that Gearbest use a forwarder in Canada. All my past Gearbest orders came directly from China.

And for those wondering, a protected Panasonic NCR18650-B do fit. I have one in my lantern right now that is 69.9mm long.

I’m expecting mine to arrive tomorrow according to tracking.

OK, interested.2 please.

Mine arrived yesterday, it is a real nice lantern. Very happy with it.

Just did a quick test of the battery on my Liitokala 500: i got 2621mAh and a relative low internal resistance of 37mR.

Now I know the Liitokala’s are not accurate in measuring internal resistance at all but it does give a usable indication: about the same internal resistance
as a Panasonic 18650B, so it looks like the cell that came with the lantern is not bad at all and indeed quite usable.

Cheers,
Nico

Thanks for the info Nico, I have not had time to test mine yet.
Good info…… :+1:

Got mine today. Awesome lantern! The tint shifting is super nice.

Springs are all good this round?

The spring on the positive I can’t check but the spring on the minus is quite strong and sturdy so, yes, looks to be just fine.

It’s not a special spring or a double one but on a lantern who needs that?

BTW: the magnet in the tailcap is strong enough to hold the lantern upside down in place, nice addition to enhance usability.

Also a great light to use at low setting in WW in your bed room, as I noticed recently…… :smiley: :wink:

Cheers,
Nico

I think Nico summed up the spring situation pretty good. :+1:
All of mine seem just fine too.

Got my 2 yesterday…VERY pleased. Thank you Freeme!

Glad you guys like your new purchase. I will feedback to their manager on Monday, and persuade them to proceed with second round soon.

Is there anything you can do for people who ordered through the first GB but their T1s weren’t shipped?

I pointed someone to GB and the offer, who placed her order less than an hour after mine (after I tried a 2nd order but the code was rejected as only a one-shot deal), and while mine were delivered Friday, hers still weren’t shipped. She’s understandably upset. Worse, I feel bad that her card was charged and all this time nothing happened and won’t happen ’til hers may or may not eventually get shipped. :expressionless:

Seeing the listings, one as out of stock, another as discontinued, is kinda worrisome, too, as you might expect.

So maybe a nice word to Someone In Charge at GB might help? :innocent:

To be frank, no one will ever know how the goods are being handled. There are simply too many people involve in the chain.

If she no longer wants the lamp, she could request for full refund (provided that order has not been shipped out) anytime. If anyone else wish to receive their T1(s), do continue to wait. I was told that a larger batch will reach by the end of the month.

This is only $10++ order. Please don't stress yourself out.

If you're aware, there have been a change in management from a few vendors lately. In fact, this is my very first GB with their new Gearbest rep. I am trying my best to adapt to his working pace. Hopefully, through the success of this Zanflare T1, they will be more willing to support our future request.

Thanks for the update freeme. Hopefully I can place my order soon.

It was her first order with GB, and any Chinese store in general, so I had to explain the way things are done there vs the Amazon way. :smiley:

And it was I think 3 T1s, one for herself and 2 as gifts.

I specifically told her to not cancel the order, though, because that would cancel the gb-price, too. :slight_smile:

Please do, I missed out on the first round by dithering. Still keen to buy two.
