I’m getting older and older while I wait for them to implement easy access to lowest mode and a lockout that doesn’t require moving a clip around.
It’s not gonna happen in my lifetime. Oh well, looks like a nice upgrade if you’re OK with the UI. Always great deals from Freeme!
Nice stuff.
But I’m afraid I know that poor UI will kill its use for me like it did with their smallest keychain.
Come on Manufacturer, long press to turbo with protruding buttons? That’s useless. 
Nevertheless I want the host. Maybe MCU swap or something will be able to fix it….
Refreshing doesn’t help.
On a side note, Freeme, why do you request our names?
ADDED: I tried to debug, there is only one POST after I click send and it ends with 200.
Some details from my browser:

@freeme:
What are the flashlights in your avatar.
I don't recognize them, and they look very nice.
Meote FM1 prototypes?
Good eye!
They do look similar to the Meote FM1.
I especially like the purple one, and I'm not big fan of purple.
I filled in my info but not sure if it got saved. Anyways I’d rather receive the coupon via PM, the old fashioned way.
Anybody knows if the power button is a one click turn on?
My apology, I left the form in edit mode by mistake before i left my terminal. It should be okay now.
You should see an acknowledgement message appear near the header of the form.
"I filled in my info but not sure if it got saved."
I am getting more request from various channels compared to last time. I hope this new method could speed up the process, so that i have more time to work on future flashlight projects with manufacturers, growing my YouTube, etc. BLF members can request deals direct in our threads, but i will give priority (~2-3hrs in advance) to buyers who submit in our list.
Anyways I’d rather receive the coupon via PM, the old fashioned way.
I tried the form but again it didn’t work. Interested!
Edit: I got the confirmation message, but didn’t receive the mail.
Deal is not alive yet.
"Edit: I got the confirmation message, but didn’t receive the mail."
If it works as on the predecessor, it's neigh on unusable. Instead, switch to demo-mode (light turns off after 30 seconds).
Never thought they would again omit lockout and USB-connector sealing.
The new jetbeam mini one has only 1 button and has a better UI than all of the nitecore TIP models. But at least this one is somewhat better than the TIP2.
Definitely less runtime anxiety for light with a bigger capacity.
Interested.
I’m still getting the error.
I will pm you when it is ready.
Thank you freeme, I appreciate that.
Do you have to hold a button down for turbo to stay on? Like the crap previous model?
I’m still using the one before the previous model where you’d hold for 1 second to get turbo and it would stay in turbo.
Once triggered, turbo mode will stay activated for about 30s.
They just posted a video explaining the UI, seems like a step up from the Tip2. Turbo from off lasts for 30s before auto off. Turbo from on requires pressing the button.
