Amazon Deal Alerts & Discussion Thread

That looks like the old W-878; there’s a review thread somewhere. Think back then most of them went to hollow pills. This one is likely also a fake emitter. The original had a direct-drive emitter pulling over 4amps from a 26660.

Got them in today and both are great for around the house, etc. The are bright and put out very good light and compare with many other name brand lights I have.

I’m happy with them.

Missed it by… 37min. :expressionless:

What was the price?

18650 fans come with battery orders from LionWholesale to get around shipping rules.

I already have one of these and they are awesome. With a good cord charge times can almost be cut in half. Just ordered 2 more because…….dang that’s an awesome price. Buy 2 and shipping is free also. Mine were $15.85 for both. Thanks Pete.

Amazon.com Lightening Deal on 8.3", 9", and 11" 18650/USB powered fans starting at 0424 AM EDT tomorrow (Oct 14, 2018).

For those of you who missed the deal today and are still be interested.


Update_1:

There is some discussion on COMLIFE 18650 fans in this thread. Apparently, the batteries are not that good, but, otherwise, the comments seems mostly positive. I don't have any first hand experience yet.


Update_2:

The 11" fan price went from $35.99 to $27.99 (22%).

The 9" fan from $19.99 to $16.99 (15%).

The 8.3" fan from $26.99 to $19.99 (26%).

This Lightening Deal will be over about 10:25 EDT, Oct 14, 2018.

Does anyone have any experience with any of the 3? Your opinion.

I have the 9” version. It’s a pretty decent fan. I like it. And I paid a lot more for it than the current lightning deal price.

Amazon is hosting another ComLife fan Lightening Deal tommorrow (Oct 16) starting at 0945 EDT. But also checkout eBay for deals.

There are several reviews on YouTube for ComLife fans.


Update: Dropped out of the lineup. Sorry.

any coupon for the BLF Q8 on amazon.DE?

Amazon.com has a Lightening Deal on an 18650-powered 6" clip-on fan for $9.99 until about 3:30 EDT Oct 17, 2018. I have no first-hand experience with this fan, but the 1800+ reviews are mostly positive, and rated A by FakeSpot.com.

My first impression of the ComLife 9" fan that I recently purchased during a Lightening Deal is positive. It is both quiet and can move a good deal of air. It has two speeds, High and Low. To me, the breeze in Low is almost too strong for up-close personal use. Example, for sleeping. So, I wish there was a speed below Low to conserve battery(ies).

I am returning the 11" fan because it vibrated excessively on High. Actually, I think it was a prior-return by the way the box was taped up. Amazon is not charging me for the return which is one reason I like doing business with them.. Because of the good performance of the 9" ComLife fan, I personally see no need for an 11" fan. As far as I am concerned, the 9" fan is more cost effective.

There are times when I return stuff to Amazon as well, but one has to be careful not to return too much. Apparently Amazon tracks this and will cancel your account without notice if they decide that you return too much. Unfortunately, the “too much” part isn’t defined anywhere.

I own the 9” version. Just get it.

Another Amazon.com Lightening Deal on 9" and 11" ComLife fans begins around 11:00 AM EDT on 18 Oct 18. First impression of my 9" ComLife fan is positive. Recommend.


Update:

The original price on the 9" fan is $19.99 and the deal price is $16.99. Savings, therefore, are $3.00 (15%).

The original price on the 11" fan is $35.99 and the deal price is $22.94. Savings are $13.05 (36%).

These deals run until about 4:00 PM EDT, 18 Oct 18.

Wow, they don’t give ya much time to pull the trigger, do they? And only one per customer, apparently.

Had to scramble to find something else to pad the order to get free shipping, so got some AA-cell cases. Wanted some colored SunBowStar ones, but got generic translucent ones instead. Still not too bad.

where is the 20% off coming from?
