Btw, the Supbeam K50 (now Acebeam) is “only” $39! For me, it’s one of the most practical designs ever… a magnetic ring selector with a mechanical switch at the base for 0 parasitic drain.
I got a “shipped” notice today, though l was informed earlier that my Acebeam PT10 should be cancelled, replaced or refunded due to inventory confusion (no more stock).
I decided to have it replaced by one more L3 Nichia 219B.
This is actually my third time to purchase from their closing out sale.
Just received my supbeam, I never got any notification of tracking or payment confirmation, but it arrived in less than a week, thank you for the great deal and I appreciate your business and I wish your future endeavors all be great
Yes, I think the L11 was only available as the L11C - with a reverse clicky tailswitch.
It was my favorite EDC - very slim, decent switch, decent beam profile, good clip, perfect mode spacing, perfect output regulation, and a 219B emitter.
But I mistakenly let it fall from a 30 inch high desk to a laminate floor after a year or two of use. It died. I’m not the only person who has had an L3 Illumination light fail from a relatively small drop. I’m guessing that in head down drops, the battery hammers the driver PCB pretty hard.
I liked it enough, though, that I’m tempted to buy another since it is on closeout, and just plan on being more careful with it.
