Meh, I got the gold/orange 3 lumen version. I was order number 38 and at that time the deal looked like it was going to be a black firefly version. Kinda bummed about that.
I hope that was a joke. Why on earth would you want to mod it to be low power only? Just buy a crappy $2 light from the hardware store and you have a dim light that is not good for much. I bought a AAA single mode from DD for $1.80 shipped, it is prob 1 lumin and has a clicky.
Still can’t answer the poll. I got a registered mail slip yesterday. Went to the post office to get it this morning and there was too long a line to stand in for a $5 light (plus I was already late for work). They’re not open Saturday and they never try to re-deliver registered mail, so looks like Monday. I like tracking, but registered mail just delays things for me.
Was informed by my sweetie that I have a package in the mail. It should be the Ti and I’m praying I don’t find a gold 3-lumen jobber. I really want firefly mode in just about any color but gold. Will update when I get home and unwrap it.
Update: no Ti, just a pair of 14500 IMR cells. Maybe tomorrow.
I think the 3 lumin mode is great. It is actually bright enough to use for some tasks but doesn’t blind you like high does. Can’t wait to get my 10440s and see what it can really do.
Got my green 3 lumen yesterday at post office. It was sent “registered mail” so lettercarrier would not leave it in mailbox. Spent $3 gas for $5 light. Still a good deal IMHO.
Exactly what I didnt want…Gold 3 lumens. Blech. Quality is very nice and knurling is the best but very light weight body. Logo and serial number on mine are crooked. Great light for $5 I guess but not worth $15. If I find them on sale for $10 I will get a black firefly version. At $10 it’d be a good price.
Anyone in the states that received a black firefly care to trade with me?
Ugh. Pink (3 lumen). And not a little bit pink, this thing is not red at all. Some friends said it is “rose”. Works well enough though. With the brass ring showing and the serial number, this seems a lot like something Tank007 would build.
I picked up my black firefly today from the post office. Now will have to wait until dark to see if the firefly mode is useful to me at night. I have others lights with firefly mode but none as low as 0.04 lumen yet.
I got a Gold 3/60 lumen which just arrived today. I had to sign for it and this order took 16 days. The gold color is very acceptable and this light compliments the .04/60 black Ti that I already have. I’ve discovered that the 3/60 lumen combination is going to be more functional for me in everyday use whereas .04 is best appreciated in total darkness situations.
