You guys are the best. Thanks for the heads up on the deal. Ordered one.

the firefly version just isn't right for me..was hoping for the 3 lumen version..good deal on those who grab it!

My ITP A3 EOS just quit working. This should make a great replacement. Thanks for the $5 deal.

I got one too. However this looks like a new store and I am a little suspicious on why they need my birthdate during registration.

Ordered. Gave them a fake birthdate.

3 lumens I can understand, but can you see anything with 0.04 ?

You’d be surprised. If you already have trouble seeing in the dark it will do you no good but if you already have decent night vision it’s amazing how well you can see with that little bit without disturbing anyone else who might be near.

To me, 3 lumens is crazy bright! My ZL SC60 has 2 low modes... 2 lumens and 0.2 lumen. 2 lumen is way too bright in the morning when I get dressed. I can ceiling bounce it and see everything. The .2 lumen is very bright but not harsh. .04 lumen is crazy low but if you were ever trapped in the pitch black it would be plenty and even on a AAA it would run for days on end.

Then I hope I will not be getting the 3 lumen version. In your opinion do you prefer something like 0.1-0.2 lumens, or even 0.04 is usable?

Actually, Taz, this will be (hopefully) my first light with a firefly mode like this. I know I prefer the .2 lumen mode on my SC60 over the 2 lumen. The difference is not quite as great as you’d think so I think that the .04 will definitely be good enough for seeing a few feet in front of you or checking your watch without disturbing anyone else.

Man, 5 bucks, can't believe it :O USA only?

antonkochubey · June 1, 2012, 8:52pm

Nope, it’s international, apparently. I just ordered one and I’m in Europe.

pounder · June 1, 2012, 8:55pm

ah hell I had to do it..i'll use the 60 lumens mostly anyway..Canada here so it's international..

Oh man i hope my t 30 today .... this is gonna be sweet thrunite happiness .

I have wanted this light since before they went into production

I was trying to smooze the thrunite guy on cpf into letting me be one of the first ones to get this light ..( obviously that didn't work )

This deal smacks of the coast free mini tac just pay shipping ..except the light is 100 times nicer .

thanks again gcbryan for waking me up to this one

this is one reason why I became a Blf member,,, free stuff.. woo hoo!

tgx78 · June 1, 2012, 9:22pm

can it be powered by 10440, like iTP A3?

soytnly · June 1, 2012, 9:25pm

That T30 for $35 is a complete steal...I'm rolling in Thrunite happiness now

fran82 · June 1, 2012, 9:28pm

No, no 10440 support, at least official support. Only AA 1,2 or 1,5 volt. However it seems to perform better with alkalines than NiMh

tgx78 · June 1, 2012, 9:29pm

ok, thanks for the info!

okyeung · June 1, 2012, 9:32pm

Thrunite are good. Order both t30 and ti. Thanks for the heads up.

snoopy8622 · June 1, 2012, 9:40pm

Just order one, $5 freight need. Thanks All.

Tecmo · June 1, 2012, 9:48pm

I ordered one. Great deal! Now I just need a TN31 code for $20....

SashiX · June 1, 2012, 9:47pm

Darn, free shipping also? I must be dreaming :O

BTW, that code works for all lights or only for Ti? 1 coupon use per user/IP? If so, I will buy 3 at least, for gifts :P

gcbryan · June 1, 2012, 10:16pm

Just for that light and only one per person.

Boaz · June 1, 2012, 10:19pm

The T30 was in the mailbox ...
