DQG 18650 EDC--World's Smallest 18650 Flashlight

Got an email saying it will be shipped out soon. Now the real wait :~

i almost preordered one, but im going to wait for the initial reviews i think - all my cells are now 18650 protected 3400ncrb cells from fast tech which are quite long (70mm ish)… plus i ordered a xeno xml2u2 today :slight_smile:

I haven’t gotten an email yet (pre-ordered two of them) :(…

Has anyone else gotten one?

Jim

I got an order confirmation email.

I got a confirmation email saying that he got the order and it will ship as soon as possible. It took 3 or 4 days though so I would not worry. Ric will come through.

I hope so. I do see my name on the list on their website, twice, so I hope that it’s ok. Are these going to ship out of the Far East starting 4/5, or are they suppose to arrive on 4/5? Counting the days now…

Jim

for the price of a new 18650 battery would it really matter?? :~

black with xm-l2 cw ordered!! (ordered last night but no confirmation email… even this morning… is this normal?)

see #294 and further, is that the case as well?

Hi,

If you go to the fancy flashlights website, and then to pre-order page, you can check the list of people who’ve ordered, and confirm that you’re on there.

@ djozz, ohaya - got it… thanks! I did not get a specific email from FF but did see that my name was added to the list…

my choice was between the BLF Mini 02 and this one… I ended up with this one because I already have 18650s… I hope it was the right choice!!

(and no, i do not want to get both… well actually i do ;), but i will not be able to explain this one, nevermind two (on top of the pile of flashlights I already have sitting on the table….))

My choice between this one and TLF Mini 02 was the mini and both of these.

And pile on table is no good. You should use shoe boxes or curios instead. ;)

lol!! yes… out of sight, out of mind (at least one mind… :bigsmile: )

Hmm. We all seem to be afflicted with the same situations :)… i.e., we all have piles of flashlight stuff SOMEWHERE :)….

Jim

Has anyone heard anything about this? Shipping is suppose to start today, right?

Jim

my pile :

WOW! I only have 4 flashlights (and 2 incoming…. plus 8 more, but those are gifts…)… i don’t have a ‘pile’ at all… maybe more of a ‘puddle’… lol!!

Hi,

So has anyone gotten any shipping notices yet? This is my first pre-order, so I guess that I’m a little (kind of “very” little) concerned, since today is April 5th :(…

Jim

Since no one really knows what they will end up getting (unless they ordered black) it's just not worth the $5 saved by preordering this light and ending up hating it. I will wait and see what you (hopefully lucky) folks get once they deliver before I buy one. There were just too many unknown variables that we never got answers on unless I missed them.

Anxious to see a couple things...

  • TIR or reflector?
  • Performance - does it overheat quickly?
  • For those that bought both XM-L2 CW and XM-L NW... how big a difference?
  • More importantly, if you ordered "titanium grey" what color did you end up getting? Gray as in the original pics? Shiny @ss gold as in the later pic? Or some oddball color in between the two?

Sure hope you all get them quick because I really do want one! :p

Just what I was thinking. To many unanswered questions on this one. Plus in a month or two the price will be on a holiday clearance for $20 anyway.
