Nothing worst than with any website outside of china. Your payment is encrypted like anywhere else with https.
I made hundreds of “cyber” payments before paypal exists and never had a problem. I’m never using “the one click” payment or equivalent that save the credit cart number and info on the website (ebay, amazon, aliexpress, etc).
It was not a complete runtime test but one that started with an almost empty battery to check the ‘vampire draw quality’ of the light.
An actual runtime test starting with full battery was never done but a very likely runtime number can be predicted when you know that the current is supposed to be set at 25mA. You get more than 40 hours out of an alkaline battery then. Maybe someone can do a review with an actual runtime test. Or maybe I will do it one of these days
Many people buy trits at Mixglo.com, you need the smallest type 6mmx1.5mm.
I have ordered some 5mm diameter x 3mm thickness neodymium magnets at Fasttech many weeks ago but I must say they are slow to arrive. Another test that is not actually done (will the C01 succesfully stick to a vertical metal surface with such magnet)
Behold, I just looked through my old stash of neodymium magnets and came across some 5mmx3mm ones after all (probably bought from Fasttech a few years back). So with a piece of wood and some care I managed to hammer one into one of the sample lights without breaking the magnet (in the production lights the hole is slightly larger so you need glue), and I can report that the C01 sticks quite happily to a vertical metal surface. Nothing extremely firm but the magnet does the job fine :+1:
(The split ring becomes very happy too, responding to the magnet )
Do you think recharging when the light goes dim would eliminate that concern?
note these lights start at about 5 lumens,
and the vampire mode is well below 1 lumen,
so it should be obvious when the light needs a fresh battery, no?
Go to “My Orders” You will see the order there with status as “Awaiting Payment.” Refresh every so often until Sofirn changes the amount from 7.02 to 6.50, then click “Pay Now” to complete your order. You will be charged 0.80 to use PayPal on Ali though, which is normal.
Thanks dijozz for confirming that a 5 x 3 mm magnet holds the light well enough :THUMBS-UP: .
Now the wait for the red and blue batches begin, hopefully they will be ready at the same time, so you don't have to order multiple times if you want both.
